Tips: 
  1. Monkeys are there as well. Again, don't unnecessarily freak them out.
  2. People might get offended when you are climbing the hill with shoes. Don't heat up.
  3. In caves, don;t get too much excited. Be careful as you might get hurt. 
  4. Fat people won't be able to get into the caves (don't mind peeps). Please have a look on the images first before you head to this place. 
  5. Local folks will ask to help you for cave explorations. Go for it. Without them, it is really hard to explore.
  6. However these folks will lure you for a FORT trek, from there only. There is no fort at all. (Even if there was one, it has collapsed completely). If you are ready to do too much trekking, go for it, given this was very tiring.
