View Point
View Point (Ashigarh) is a premier destination for landscape enthusiasts and photographers in Tripura. Located on a high ridge, it offers an unobstructed view of the surrounding valleys and the winding NH-8. The area is often covered in a blanket of clouds during the early morning hours. It is a fa vorite stop for travelers driving between Agartala and Dharmanagar. The government has developed the site with railings and viewing decks for safety. On a clear day, one can see far into the plains of the neighboring districts. The cool breeze at this altitude is a major draw for people living in the plains. The viewpoint is surrounded by dense forests that are home to various species of monkeys and birds. It serves as an educational site for geography students to study the ridge and valley topography. Many local families visit during the weekends for a quick getaway. The site has a small tea stall that serves local brews. It is especially beautiful during the rainy season when the greenery is most vivid. The winding roads leading to the viewpoint are a delight for motorcyclists. It remains a peaceful spot except during the peak holiday seasons.
