Geography & terrain

Jashpur lies in the Jashpur district of Chhattisgarh, 130 km from Raigarh and 300 km from Raipur — the hill town of the region's north, its waterfalls, the tribal villages and the plateau views set on the state's edge near Jharkhand.

History & culture

The town's story runs with the princely state of Jashpur of the colonial era — the kingdom of the Oraon and the Munda peoples, with the town's history of the missionaries and the tribal life of the plateau; the region's modern role as the offbeat hill circuit of the state, with the Raja's palace and the tribal dances of the seasons, gives Jashpur its plateau-tribal character.
