DAPORIJO

 Daporijo is a small and beautiful city situated in the district of Subansiri, Arunachal Pradesh. The countryside settings which are still not affected by the sense of commercialization will unwind your senses and rejuvenates you. The cool climate and prestigious surroundings makes the visit just perfect to spend some quality time with your family escaping the hush life of the concrete cities. 

 

 Diversified culture is seen here due to the presence of many tribal settlements. Their artwork and handicrafts are rare and excellent. They also depend on cloth weaving, farming and cattle rearing for their livelihood. 

 

 Meghana cave temple is the foremost attraction of this quiet little place. The temple dedicated to Lord Shiva is majestically located on a hill top and can be reached by a fleet of steps. Located in tranquil surroundings it is an abode where devotion meets natural beauty.  Ancient Sanskrit inscriptions are found on the temple walls.
