Mainpat, Locally Known As "Mini Tibat"

Mainpat is a small village in Chattisgarh state, Central India. Mainpat has become known for the Tibetans who have been living there for the last four or five decades.
Mainpat, locally known as 'Mini Tibet', is a hill station located on a plateau in Sarguja District of Chhattisgarh state. Chhattisgarh is the most forested state of India. Mainpat was nothing more than a jungle where only a few local Indians dared to live. It was a beautiful landscape in a very isolated place. The Tibetan people built huts which gradually developed to better houses where they live today. The condition of the roads remained in bad shape. It has been renovated and is in great condition at least for now.

zalzali...

There is a place called Bouncing Land or "Jaljala" in a local language. The specialty of this place is that if a person jumps in one place, things in the whole area shake and the ground appears to be like a trampoline.
