Dharampur is a hidden gem, where the past and present of the Munda tribe converge in a vibrant tapestry of culture and tradition. The Munda people have lived in harmony with the land for centuries, preserving a way of life that is rich in rituals, art, and community values. At Deep Forest Stays, we are dedicated to ensuring that this heritage is not only preserved but celebrated.

Our guests are invited to step into the world of the Munda tribe, where every aspect of daily life reflects a deep connection to the land and ancestral traditions. From intricate handicrafts to traditional dances, visitors can experience firsthand the cultural practices that have been passed down through generations. We offer unique opportunities to engage with the community, whether it’s through participating in a local festival, learning about traditional farming techniques, or simply sharing stories around a campfire.

This cultural immersion is not just about observation but participation. By engaging with the Munda people, our guests help to keep these traditions alive. The income generated from cultural tourism helps fund community initiatives that support education, healthcare, and cultural preservation. In this way, tourism becomes a powerful tool for cultural resilience, ensuring that the Munda heritage continues to thrive in the modern world.
