📖 About this place
Tengragiri lies in the coastal Taltali area and holds dense mangrove stands of sundari, keora and geoa trees. Creeks and rivers run through the forest, and a boat trip can reveal monkeys, deer and many birds. Because it sits near the sea, the tides keep changing the look of the forest. The calm setting makes it a favourite with nature lovers.
