First of all, the journey in Mizoram begins in its political and cultural hub, Aizawl. Configured like a citadel, Aizawl is already over a century old. A salubrious climate welcomes visitors to the city, set 4,000 feet atop the sea level.
Yonder around the city’s edge lay the captivating panoramas of the emerald Tlawng River Valley, the Turial River Valley and the craggy hills of Durtlang. In the city, one may also spend time at the State Museum.
On to the breathtaking beauty of the countryside, Mizoram becomes a beautiful world of water in all the tranquil glory of Tamdil Lake. Further away, one comes across Vantawang, Mizoram's highest waterfall. Cascading at 750 feet high, the waterfalls elicit awe from every angle, flanked by thick bamboo forests.
Unto Lake Palak, the largest in Mizoram, the journey calls for a dip in its depths before it proceeds to the stunning locales of Champhai and Saiha. |
For a state called the Land of the Blue Mountains, Mizoram should have visitors behold, if not scale, its tall peaks such as the mighty Phawngpui.
According to a tourist map of Mizoram, the Tropic of Cancer runs right through the state, which lies at the southernmost tip of northeastern India.
