Thuamul Rampur

It is also referred as the Kashmir of Kalahandi as it receives moderate amount of snow fall in the winter season.

Erstwhile Kasipur was a part of Kalahandi, adjacent to Thuamul Rampur but due to administrative difficulties it was transferred to Rayagada district without public opinion and information in mid 70's.

Very few people know that there are two Maa Manikeshwari Mandir i.e., one in Bhawanipatna while another at Thuamul Rampur.

Lack of interest and less focus given to tourism here by state government made it abandoned for tourists.

It is present on the top of the eastern ghats from where half of the Kalahandi district is visible including Junagarh, Kalampur block etc.
