Bindu is situated only 107 km from Siliguri. The last hamlet of west Bengal, Bindu is a valley encircled with hills of Bhutan and India in the banks of river Jaldhaka. It is a feast for the eyes and a stimulating experience for the mind. The road that leads to Bindu is in itself an unforgettable experience. The dooars area starts immediately after you cross the Teesta River at Coronation Bridge. The whole region is extremely beautiful with green vegetation all around. Most of the time you will be traveling through the plain with the hills on your left just a few hundred meters away.
There is also a possibility of sighting wild life on the way. Bindu is a conglomeration of different aborigines. The peace loving people of Bindu are engaged either in Elaichi (Cardamom) or suntala (Oranges) cultivation. Terrace cultivation is quite common here. Just a few kilometers from Bindu and Paren on an accentuated height is Godak village. On either side of the road, you will find cardamom and orange plantation. From here you can have a view of the few villages of Bhutan, Paren and Bindu. On the way to Godak Government has set up a Cardamom Curing Centre for the farmers.
