The finger millet (Bajra or Ragi) is naturally cultivated in the hills of Kalimpong. The Lepcha people of the hills call it ‘Maong-waa’. This is the origin of the name of two adjacent villages west of the Teesta river, the Bara Mangwa and Chota Mangwa villages.

Winding village alleys passing through landscaped gardens and cottages with view points located everywhere along the mountain slopes make this village one of the undiscovered gems of Eastern Himalayas.
