East - North East India, travel with a local agency
The distinctness of this region will hit you like a boulder if you have travelled North or South India. Despite being a part of the same country, the culture, people, ethics and lifestyle here is unique to the rest of India. This lends the northeast region its enigma and magical aura.
At one with nature in the north east states
The wildness of the Brahmaputra River, the tea trails and a distinct Assam valley tropical wet evergreen forest of Dibrugarh are the major highlights of this region of India. For nature lovers and explorers, the Kaziranga National Park is also a must do here. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the park is home to about two-thirds of the world's Great One-horned Rhinoceroses population. Do not miss to adore the vastness of Majuli known to be India’s largest river island. Explore these magnificent states, taking in the untouched landscapes that the people of north east India call home.
Landscapes, tribes and festivals
Arunachal Pradesh is stunningly distinct from the archetypal image of Himalayan scenery and culture. The strong Tibetan and Buddhist culture is infused in the people and landscapes. With its vast expanses of impenetrable forests and tiny population, Arunachal is the untouched beauty in its purest form. Then there is the state of Nagaland most famous for its unique indigenous tribes. The famed Hornbill Festival is celebrated annually in the month of December at Kisama heritage village which is about 12km from the state capital of Kohima. When in Kohima do visit the World War 2 War cemetery and the Bara Basti which is believed to be the second largest village in Asia.
A breath of fresh air
Unlike the patriarchal system so deeply entrenched in North India, the culture of Meghalaya where women are more empowered is refreshingly different. Meghalaya is considered as the wettest region in India and the state capital Shillong is known as the "Scotland of the East". Out of the 5 highest waterfalls in India, Meghalaya is home to 3 of them (Langshiang Falls, Nohkalikai Falls and Nohsngithiang Falls). If you truly believe that cleanliness is next to godliness then you must visit the Mawlynnong village dubbed as the Asia's cleanest village.
