Excursions from Dantewada
Chhattisgarh, an ancient Indian state with strong historical connections, draws large number of tourists from India and abroad. Dantewada, one of the attractive tourist sites in Chhattisgarh, is a chief tourist interest. Having been ruled by different tribes at different points of time in history, Dantewada boasts of some of the special places of tourist interest. However, apart from the tourist spots in the town of Dantewada, the Excursions from Dantewada to different sites around the city are equally exciting.
Heading for the sightseeing trips to various corners of the town is fascinating, but the Excursions from Dantewada can be really thrilling. From the nearest town of Jagdalpur at a distance of 87 km, you can go for a trip to the captivating town of Bursur, 24 km north of Geedham village, which is in turn between Dantewada and Jagdalpur. In 840 A.D the Gangawanshi rulers had made it their capital. Situated along the banks of Indrawati river, Bursar is believed to have, once upon a time, housed 147 temples and the same number of ponds. However, it still retains some of the ruins of the temples of the 10th and 11th century, with some of them even having idols of Lord Vishnu in them.
The Chandraditya temple, Mama-Bhanja temple, Battisa temple and the huge statue of Lord Ganesha are points of interest here.
A Tour to Bastar can be one of the most exciting and interesting Excursions from Dantewada. Barely 82 km away from Jagdalpur - the nearest town of Dantewada, Bastar is, on its own, a crowd puller. Monuments like, Bastar Palace and Kutumsar Caves, Kailash Gufa and the Anthropological Museum are some of the important places to visit; Lakes and waterfalls like, Dalpat Sagar Lake, Ganga Munda Lake, Chitrakot Waterfalls, Tiratgarh Waterfalls are really enchanting places to visit.
