Train rides have never been more exciting than in Nagaland. Hence, a rail map of Nagaland is akin to a journey to paradise, an understatement even.
Obviously the train station should be located at the capital, Kohima. Nestled 1,400 meters above sea level, Kohima enjoys a temperate climate yearlong.

When in Kohima and the air is nippy, one might as well drop by the Kohima War Cemetery, if only for a moment of reverence for the sacrifices made by the Allies against the Japanese during the Second World War.
Aside from the cemetery, the city’s attractions include the Kohima Village. The largest of its kind in Asia, the complex is where the olden times of Nagaland stand still. A village called Khonoma provides similar perspectives of rustic life.
Just near the rural side of Kohima is the enchanting place called Dzulekie, where domesticated bisons roam in pastoral abandon. Dzukou Valley is just as idyllic, rising 2,400 meters above sea level.
But it kills the competition during June to September, when its expanse is carpeted with wild flowers in bloom. Japfu Peak is higher though, a challenging venue for mountaineers. |
In Nagaland, a city called Dimapur once became the ancient capital of Kachari Kingdom. Here, natural delights include the Triple Falls. Intanki Wildlife Sanctuary, Fakim Sanctuary and Pulie Bazde all make for splendid spectacles of fauna away from the zoo.Directions to all these places of interest are easily tracked through a map of Nagaland.
