 The union territory has lush green forests covered with tall trees,
meandering rivers, large waterfronts, cascading waterfalls, the gentle
gurgle of streams, the distant hills, and a gorgeous kaleidoscope of flora
and fauna. The serene and sylvan land of Dadra and Nagar Haveli is Nature at
her best.
This quiet magical
land of 70 villages, sandwiched between the states of Maharashtra and
Gujarat, near Daman, was under the Portuguese, till it attained freedom in
1954. The people took over the administration under the system of
self-government.
The hospitable native tribals have
their own customs, dances and rituals, which are quite fascinating.
