Unakoti — 1 Night / 2 Days Tour
Tripura · Rock-cut site — Unakoti means "one less than a crore" — a hillside of colossal rock-cut Shiva images and stone figures carved into a forested slope, thought to date from around the seventh to ninth centuries, and nobody is certain who made them or why. The central Unakotiswara Kal Bhairava face stands roughly thirty feet high with an enormous headdress. What makes the site remarkable is the setting: waterfalls run past the carvings, the forest has grown around them, and on an ordinary day you may have the whole hillside to yourself. It is a long drive from Agartala and it is worth it. The Ashokashtami mela in April draws large crowds; outside that it is almost silent. This 1-night tour is built around the destination's key sights, priced on enquiry and tailored to your dates — the day-by-day below is a flexible framework, confirmed with you at quotation.

Questions
Package FAQs
Who carved Unakoti?
Nobody knows with certainty. The carvings are usually dated to roughly the seventh to ninth centuries, and both the makers and their purpose remain unresolved — which is a large part of the site's atmosphere.
Can I visit as a day trip from Agartala?
It is around four and a half hours each way, so it makes for a very long day. A night at Kailashahar nearby is the more comfortable option.
Is this a fixed itinerary or can it be customised?
It is a flexible framework built around Unakoti's key sights. The exact day-by-day plan, specific hotels and final inclusions are tailored to your dates, pace and party at the quotation stage — add nights, nearby destinations or activities as you wish.
