Nagaland Insider Tip

The Hornbill Festival (first week of December) at Kisama Heritage Village near Kohima is one of India's most extraordinary cultural events โ€” all 16 Naga tribes perform together in traditional dress, with warrior dances, folk music, and traditional food stalls. Book accommodation in Kohima months in advance for festival week. The WWII cemetery on Garrison Hill, Kohima โ€” where the British and Indian armies halted the Japanese advance in 1944 โ€” is hauntingly beautiful.

Amsterdam Insider Tip

Cycling is the dominant mode of transport โ€” stay out of bike lanes. Almost everyone speaks English.

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ณ Nagaland Fun Fact

Nagaland is home to 16 major Naga tribes, each with its own distinct language, costume, and traditions โ€” tribes that were historically headhunting enemies of each other. The last recorded headhunting raid occurred in 1969. Today over 90% of Nagas are Christian โ€” the result of American Baptist missionary work in the 19th century โ€” making it one of the most intensely Christian regions in Asia. The state has no alcohol prohibition but produces no commercial wine.
