Geography & terrain

Khumlong lies in the Unakoti district of Tripura, 60 km from Agartala and 30 km from Kailashahar — the forest village of the region, its traditional houses, the bamboo craft and the green set on the state's north near the Unakoti hills.

History & culture

The village's story runs with the region's tribal life — the Reang and the Jamatia village of the north, with the village's modern role as the community-tourism stop and the craft base of the state; the village's history of the forest life and the bamboo building traditions, with the eco-camp and the trails of its grounds, gives Khumlong its forest-village character.
