  • I had been at Biharinath on the eve of Independent day. I along with my family members took a car from Ranignj station and were going to GarPanchakot via Raghunathpur. On my way I noticed a hill is shroded with cloud.As I asked the driver he requested me to visit that place once. He told me that I am not to pay him anything as he deserved to offer a Puja to Lord Biharinath(Shiva). Oh God what a scene-all we felt we are in "Araku" and my wife told this is exact place for shooting. We found Hills,dense foress with flora and fauna, Water body,river Damodar nearby and above all temple of Lord Biharinath. But there was no hotel or restaurant.We felt sorry that how tourists can enjoy here? Then only we noticed that one hotel ( BIHARINATH TOURIST POINT, MOBILE 8017202499)is under construction. I came to know that the Hotel will be opened by January 2011.

We came yesterday noon and enjoyed Biharinath to our brim. Hills, dense growth of forest,little lake and spring, river Damodar, renowned temple of Lord Shiva where every wishes are filled by Lord,salubrous atmosphere and then what more. We also enjoyed Tribal dance on yesterday night as well as glitters of IISCO factory of Burnpur. Now we are leaving for a trip to Baranti/ Garpanchkot/Panchet Dam/Jaychandi hill/ Susunia hill.Tomorrow we shall leave the hotel after breakfast and then move towards Maithon dam, shall take our lunch there and then return to Kolkata.
