Longwa Village Tourism
Type of destination: Rural/Village
Longwa Village, located in Mon District of Nagaland, is one of the most fascinating places for those intrigued by the tribal culture. Straddling the India-Myanmar border, this remote village is the home to the Konyak Nagas, known for their tattooed faces and traditional attire. The chief's house, which is a prominent attraction in Longwa, has an interesting feature: it sits on the international boundary line, with half of the house lying in India and the other half in Myanmar. The village offers a glimpse into the lives of a tribe that once had a fierce reputation of headhunting. Visitors can explore the rich culture, traditional craftsmanship, and meet the village elders who tell tales of an era gone by. Linguistically and culturally, Longwa provides a unique blend of Indian and Myanmarese influences, offering visitors a peek into life in one of India's most remote and untouched corners.
