Great place for people who wants to know the ancestry of local animals and they can see skin of long anaconda, giant legs of elephants(skin is original but core is made of wood) and lot more,.Very quiet place.

Buxa Fort, is a fort atop the Buxa Hill at a height of 2600 feet, 30 km from Alipurduar. For a long time it was a point of contention between the King of Bhutan and the Cooch Kings. Until the British on invitation of the Cooch King intervened and captured the fort in the end of the eighteenth century. The British reconstructed the fort from its bamboo wood structure to stone structure. The fort was later used mostly as a prison. Several revolutionaries were imprisoned there. The Bhutan King used the fort to protect the portion of famous Silk Route connecting Tibet with India, via Bhutan. Still later during unrest in Tibet, hundreds of refugees arrived at the place and used the abandoned fort as refuge.nAt present some pictures & some métiers which are used by freedom fighter prisoners kept in this museum .
