Tripura
This is a landlocked state in North East India, this is the third smallest state in India.
In Mahabharata ,Puranas and Edicts of Ashoka- mentioned that Tripur is the Kirat Desh,which is reffering Kirata Kingdoms,
The boundaries of the kingdom changed over the centuries.The borders reached south to the jungles of Sundarban on the Bay of Bengal; East to Burma, North to the boundary of the Kamrupa kingdom in Assam and to the west it is bordered with Bangladesh. It was also known as Hill Tippera before the British government directly ruled it.
Migrated Bengali Hindus from Bangladesh and indigenous Tripuri peoples are the main inhabitants of this state.The chakma tribals are mainly buddhist,and Christianity is mainly followed by the tribal groups like Kuki,Garo,Halam etc.
Agartala is the capital of this state situated in the plain part of this land,the undulating landscape is dotted with hillocks and green foliage cover most of the city.all the modern amenities are available here and surely the beautiful clean roads ( a true swatch Bharat indeed!) can attract the visitors.
On the other side there are several mountain range runs from north to south like Jampui Hills, Boromura, Atharamura, Longtharai etc. Al most half of Tripura is covered by forests.Sugar cane and Bamboos are the common in the forest.

Agartala airport is located 12 km away to the northwest of Agartala at Singerbhil, and this is the second busiest airport in northeast India after Guwahati.There are only one highway NH-8 which is connected Tripura to the other parts of India.
