Changay falls, Singshore bridge
Uttarey village, and Dentam Bazar:
About
10kms from Pelling on the road side of Dentam Bazar is

in all seasons. The water falls from the high cliff in
different runs that makes visitors watch unmoved for
hours. Interested visitors may climb up through gentle
footpath and sit closer to the falls in a beautiful
viewpoint shade when nearby they can attempt for a light
bite and drink in a cafeteria. Then just a drive for
about 12kms across beautiful villages and panoramic view
of countryside across the river one reaches an old
village market center called Dentam Bazar where the
latest attraction is Alpine cheese factory of which the

towns of India. One can quickly visit the temple in the
main square and of course eat and drink at some
restaurants, there. From there in a short distance of
about 5kms towards Uttarey village is Singshore bridge

16years ago The site has been provided with needed
amenities for visitors. The bridge is being selected for
bungy jumping to be started soon. A
