About 100 km away from Agartala in the Santirbazar Sub-Division is Pilak, famous for its great 8^th-9^th century archaeological remains. The site is one of an old civilization , representing both Hindu and Buddhist linkages. The main attractions here are the massive stone sculptures of Avolokiteswari and Narasimhan and numerous carvings in stone and terracotta plaques.

It has a great importance for the tourist from outside. Every year Pilak-Utsav is organized here. The site is still being excavated-who knows what else the earth will reveal!!
