Jaigaon
Jaigaon is a bustling border town in the Alipurduar district of West Bengal, located right on the India-Bhutan border and separated from Bhutan's city of Phuentsholing by the iconic Bhutan Gate. It serves as a key gateway for trade and transit between the two countries, with many Bhutanese coming to Jaigaon for shopping and supplies.
The town features a unique cultural blend of Indian and Bhutanese traditions, evident in its markets and temples. While Jaigaon is primarily a commercial hub rather than a tourist destination, it is surrounded by scenic hills, tea gardens, and forests, with nearby attractions such as Jaldapara National Park and Buxa Tiger Reserve.
Despite its strategic importance, Jaigaon faces challenges like poor infrastructure, lack of healthcare facilities, traffic congestion, and waterlogging, which have led to local protests and demands for better development. The town is well connected by road and rail, with the nearest airport at Bagdogra, making it accessible for travelers heading to Bhutan or exploring the Dooars region.
