Bhalukpong! Have you heard of this before? seems the answer is No.
Bhalukpong is a small town located along the southern reaches of the Himalayas in West Kameng district of Arunachal Pradesh in India.
The town is located at 213m above sea level,[1] 100 km from Bomdila, 52 km from Tezpur and 5 km from Tipi.
It lies along the Kameng river and is the headquarters of Bhalukpong circle.
A road leads to Bomdila via the Tipi Orchidariurm, and the inner line check post is located at Bhalukpong.[2]
Bhalukpong was governed by local tribal Aka rulers, with occasional political dominance from Bhutan and Assam.
Ahom rulers of Assam did not interfere with the local tribals, except for retaliatory raids into the tribal territory.
In 1873, the British had declared the area around Bhalukpong as off-limits.
Fish angling and river rafting are the principal tourist activities in Bhalukpong.
Tourist attractions in Bhalukpong include the Pakhui Game Sanctuary and Tipi Orchidariurm, which hosts over 2600 cultivated orchids from 80 different species.
The annual festival Nyethidow of the Aka tribe is celebrated in january at Bhalukpong,Thrizino .
Bhalukpong is inhabited by members of the Aka Tribes.
The place away from the daily rushes of city and a heart holding beauty mesmerises everyone seeing. The site seeing is awesome but if someone carries a binoculars then it is just like heaven! every where you will see birds chirping. The forest gives life to many animals with some of them including deers and rhinos!
Bhalukpong does not have much accommodation options. You can stay at the Forest Rest House (with permit) and the Inspection Bungalow in Bhalukpong. Assam Tourist Lodge in Bhalukpong is another good option to stay in the region. The nearest airport is at Tezpur which is one hour 25 minutes away by road. It is also possible to stay at Tezpur in the Circuit House, the Dak Bungalow or the Tourist Lodge. The price of all the accommodations is low.
It is Also a Very Good Site for Rafting Too! Many youths all over India come to enjoy Rafting every year in their Holidays. I suggest you to go Bhalukpong first than any other places so that you enjoy the beauty of nature!
