EXPLORE THE BEST OF NORTH EAST INDIA

HORNBILL FESTIVAL NAGALAND

1 TO 10 DECEMBER
Not many states of India’s ethnically rich Northeast perhaps as vibrant and colourful as Nagaland is. This is a lustrous land of once brave warriors who fiercely protected their land, natives who has held on to traditions amidst changing times with great pride of their respective ancestry. For a true Naga nothing matters more than the word-of-mouth, nothing matters more than their tradition which has taught them to extend warm hospitality to a guest who knocks at their door with an openness of being. With changing times tigers may not dance across the Naga terrain, Hornbills still do, when they woo
Organized by the State Tourism and Art & Culture Departments of Nagaland, Hornbill Festival showcases a mélange of cultural displays under one roof at a model village built at Kisama, a western Angami location situated 12 kms away from Kohima, the capital of Nagaland. History abounds in every nook and corner of the terrain here. Kisama falls on the historically famed Kohima-Imphal Road, now a busy highway cutting through Angami hamlets connecting Dimapur with Manipur, once the theatre of the fiercest of battles fought between the defending British forces and an advancing Japanese army during World War II.
