Mizoram

Mizoram - Blue mountains, deep, narrow valleys, the gentle gurgle of streams, cascading waterfalls in lush tropical forests, a gorgeous array of flora and fauna. A land whose tranquil loveliness is quite unmistakably, the personal creation of Mother Nature herself. Time stands still in the Lushai hills of Mizoram. All you'll notice first is the serenity, the hushed wonder, the profound peace that makes them seem quite enchanted, makes them appear a place where man is almost a misfit. But look closer and you will find quite hamlets nestled amidst this most varied terrain. Hamlets inhabited by a people living in perfect harmony with the natural bounty of Mizoram, a people unique in their customs, beliefs, practices and lifestyles.
