Pecharthal View Point
Pecharthal View Point Watch Tower is a recently developed eco-tourism spot that provides a panoramic view of the Unakoti hills. Situated at a high altitude along the national highway, it offers a refreshing break for travelers moving between Agartala and Kailashahar. The tower allows visitors to se e the rolling green hills and the distant border plains of Bangladesh on a clear day. It is surrounded by lush forests and diverse flora, making it a favorite for nature lovers and landscape photographers. The area is also significant as it is near a prominent Buddhist settlement, adding a cultural layer to the visit. The watchtower is maintained by the forest department to ensure safety and cleanliness. The cool breeze at the top of the tower is a stark contrast to the humid plains below. It serves as a perfect picnic spot for families on weekends. Visitors can often see the mist rolling over the hills during the early morning hours. It is an essential stop to understand the geographical diversity of Tripura.
