Next is the place which gives goosebumps, every time you hear its history and remember the brave heart Rifleman Jaswant Singh. i.e Jaswant Garh War Memorial.

A refreshing dip in Jung Falls aka Nuranang falls helped to re-gain the drained energy so far which is required to reach Tawang.

The journey to Bum La Pass offers some of the best valley and river views through a bumpy road.

One should witness the feeling of standing at the indo-china border on their own as words fell short to explain the magic.

After witnessing the magic started to visit Shungatser Lake also called as Madhuri lake. The beauty of this lake and its route gives you best snaps.

Also admired the beauty of Panga Teng Tso lake while returning to Tawang.
