Dongargarh

Chhattisgarh located in the heart of India, is a state shaped by dense forests, ancient traditions, and a cultural identity that feels distinct from the more frequently visited parts of the country. Created in 2000 after being carved out of Madhya Pradesh, it remains one of India’s most tribal‑rich regions, with Indigenous communities making up a significant portion of the population. Their customs, festivals, music, and crafts form the cultural backbone of the state, giving visitors a rare chance to experience traditions that have been preserved for centuries. Geographically, Chhattisgarh is dominated by forests (of the 135,133 km2 area, about 45% is densely forested), rivers and rolling hills. This natural abundance has made the state a haven for wildlife, waterfalls, and eco‑tourism. The forests are abound in wildlife like the tiger, leopard, wild boar, cheetal, langur, rhesus monkey, barasingha, sambhar, bison, wild buffalo, civet cat and bear.
