Did you know about these mysterious statues of Unakoti? According to local legends, this place has over 1 crore sculpture but nobody can find them, as they are hidden in the lush green forests. Why would have anyone made over a crore sculptures in this place. The name Unakoti means one less than 1 crore(koti means 1 crore). There is a story which says that there was a man names Kallu, who wanted to accompany Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati to Mt. Kailash but Shiva wasn't too keen on taking him along and gave him a task of making 10million sculptures before dawn. He was short of only one and thus, the place got it's name. In the 1960 Earthquake, may of these sculptures were broken and also stolen as India & Bangladesh borders weren't sealed. New waterfalls emerged and washed away lots of other carvings. This is why we can't find a crore statues in the present day. Unakoti is not a mobile place and tourism in not well developed.
