Nagaland – Of Legends and Music

Located in the extreme North Eastern End of India, Nagaland is a land of legends with music as an integral part of life. Each of the 16 odd tribes and sub-tribes that dwell in this exotic hill state can easily be distinguished by the colorful and intricately designed costumes, jewelry and beads that they adorn. Perched at 1444.12 meters above sea level, Kohima the capital city offers a temperate climate throughout the year. The two-hour drive from Dimapur to Kohima could be a blissful experience where you can take a meal of local cuisine from one of the typical Naga wayside outlets. Tucked away at 2438 meters above sea level, Dzukou Valley enables you to confine yourself to be at peace with nature as hills, natural caves & rocks surround the valley. Kohima War Cemetery is a symbolic memorial erected to remember the supreme sacrifices made by the allied soldiers who halted the tide of the Japanese onslaught during the Second World War. Khonoma offers a peep into the village lifestyle of the people here. This village is not only laced in history but also known for its ecological propriety. Intanki Wildlife Sanctuary is just 37 kms away from Dimapur.
