An island formed by constant accumulation of the river silts..It experiences constant flooding during rainy seasons..accessible by a hanging footbridge...it has a thriving population. this island is associated with crime elements as will. there's a spooky story that a maiden dressed in 60's fashion showed up with two baggage. a male resident, concerned for the safety of the newcomer offered to help carry her baggage. the maiden lead him to an old, huge mango tree. she then offered her an unfamiliar bill. then just as suddenly the lady disappeared. with the chivalric dude left to himself who the decided to run in terror. some say that they sometimes hear sounds like a huge cruise ship or boat in the nearby river.spooky.
