Amazingly enhanting and greatly mystifying, the beauty and essence of Andaman and Nicobar Islands can hardly be defined in singular words. The islands have been mentioned by numerous travellers in their dairies and travelogues for the longest time, and there are limited but concrete evidences, which speak of the people who are native to these lands and have been here for centuries.During the British colonial rule, these beautiful islands were something that were dreaded since Kaalapaani or Black Waters, where the freedom fighters were tortured, was situated here. But now things have changed, people from all over the world come by to enjoy the local culture and enjoy the beautiful beaches that the island is home to.
Geographically, these islands are located in the Bay of Bengal and are part of the Indian mainland. It was once a continuous hills range that extended all the way from Myanmar right up to Indonesia. A large part of the island is covered in evergreen forest and is home to a wide range of flora and fauna.
