Photos Of Tanakpur Town
Champawat, Uttarakhand, India
Place Details: Tanakpur is a bustling town located at the foothills of the Kumaon Himalayas, serving as the most important entry point for travelers heading towards the Champawat and Pithoragarh districts. Situated on the banks of the mighty Sharda River (also known as the Kali), the town marks the transition from the flat plains of the Terai to the rising mountains. It is a significant business hub and a major pilgrimage center, primarily known as the base for the journey to the famous Purnagiri Temple. The town has a unique cosmopolitan feel due to its proximity to the Indo-Nepal border, with a vibrant mix of Kumaoni, Punjabi, and Nepali cultures. Historically, Tanakpur gained importance during the British era as a railhead for transporting timber from the dense Himalayan forests. The Sharda Ghat in the town is a sacred spot where devotees take a holy dip before starting their uphill trek. The Banbasa Barrage, located nearby, is a feat of engineering that controls the river flow and provides a scenic spot for evening walks. The town is also the starting point for the Kailash Mansarovar Yatra for many pilgrims. Despite its busy markets and transport yards, the town retains a spiritual atmosphere, with several small temples and ashrams dotting the riverbanks. The view of the sunset over the Sharda river, with the mountains of Nepal in the distance, is one of the most beautiful sights in the region. Tanakpur is also known for its local delicacies, particularly its sweets and street food which are popular among travelers passing through. It serves as the perfect introduction to the beauty and diversity of the Kumaon region. :
