Barechhina is a village in Almora district, Uttarakhand, 18 km from the district headquarters, the city of Almora. .[1] It lies on highway from Almora-Barechhina-Dhaulchina-Sheraghat-RaiAgar-Berinag-Chaukori-Thai-Tejam to Munsiyari. It is noted for its two prehistoric painted rock-shelters, at 'Lakhudiyar', literally 'one lakh caves'[2], on the banks of Suyal river. These rock-shelters have paintings of animals and humans in addition to tectiforms done with fingers in black, red and white colours[3][4] and engravings of trishul and Swastika.[5] These images have now become a tourist attraction.[6] REFERENCES (1) Barechhina Archived 7 May 2008 at the Wayback Machine.
