Mizoram Tourism



The idyllic state of Mizoram is perched on the tip of the northeastern border of India.

Legend has it that, the Mizos emerged from a large rock known as Chhinlung. Two of the Ralte clan made a great noise while coming out. This annoyed "Pathian", the Mizo God, who felt that too many have been allowed to step out, so closed the door with a large rock.

This way, the entire land of Mizoram lingers in myths and mystery. Anthropologically the mongoloid people of Mizoram trace their ancestry in China and Myanmar. In 1986, the region became a full-fledged state of Indian Union.

The land promises you unbroken solitude as you travel to Mizoram. Mist clad peaks, lush green valleys, gushing streams and quaint tribal villages combine into Mizoram to offer you a perfect holiday retreat.
