This reminds me of one of the Top Gear episodes where they put the Stig to car testing duties. Just imagining some beast (eg. //M ) on this is making me grin

Some pics of the Chandil Dam, around 100 kms from Ranchi on NH-33 towards Jamshedpur.

Wow, the road has finished? I did visit this place during the begining of this year, the road was under construction then.

Glad to see that the roads are nice. Only if the authorities care to improve the NH-6 (between Chichira and Jamsola/Jharpokaria). Jamshedpur-Bahragora section is slated for repair, as I see here.

Rated 5 stars thank you //M, for showing us this wonderful place. How knew Jharkhand could have such amazing roads and infrastructure

Very nice thread //M. And very informative too. Jharkhand has no dearth of places for the visitors. The capital city, Ranchi is surrounded by hills & waterfalls from almost all sides. If one is inclined towards natural beauty, the place has much to offer.

What I liked particularly about this thread is that you have incorporated a lot of spots of the state, which is not only helpful to visitors, but also to the locals like me. I hope I plan some trips soon to a few of the above places.

Thanks,
Saket

Thank You Saket.

I hope to visit a lot more places in the next couple of weeks around Ranchi. I'll surely keep this thread active so that locals as well as tourists can get some info about the various lovely places around Ranchi.

I am sure that will be helpful to us. Are you coming to Ranchi as your location shows Madurai?

Oops I have not yet updated my location but I stay in Ranchi. I was in Madurai for my graduation and I am in Ranchi now for my post-grads. Will love to meet you sometime.
