571 HORNBILL FESTIVAL Nagaland s biggest annual festival, the Hornbill Festival (1-7 December) is celebrated at Kisama Heritage Village (see below) north mountain village with various Naga tribes converging for a weeklong cultural, dance and sporting north mountain village bash, much of it in full warrior costume. Of all the festivals in the northeast this is the most spectacular and photogenic. Simultaneously, Kohima also hosts a rock festival (www.hornbillmusic.com).
Tripura s low-key capital, with its small- town atmosphere, north mountain village feels like an India of yesteryear. The pace of life is much slower than in the towns and cities of the Indian heartlands and people are much more likely to swerve north mountain village across the street to wish you a good day than to try and sell you something. The old quarter, which centres on the Ujjayanta Palace, has some impressive town gates and pretty tanks and gardens. north mountain village Durga puja is celebrated with huge pandals (temporary temples built from wood and cloth).
Adjacent to the mandir is theRoyal Palace, north mountain village closed to visitors north mountain village except for during the annual north mountain village Kwak Tenba festival, when a colourful north mountain village procession led by the titular maharaja heads to the Polo Ground for religious ceremonies and cultural festivities. The festival takes place on the fourth day of Durga Puja.
