Chui Village (Basti), Mon

An imposing statue of the Angh chief, Wangkhao Angh, with elaborate accessories stands at the entrance of the Angh’s house in the biggest house of the Chui village or Basti. Chui village is considered as another key destination for tourists wanting to know about the warrior tribes - Konyaks. The headhunting tribe that full-fledgedly practiced their customs may no longer be seen in entirety, but there are several remains of the glorious past in this village.

When you enter the Angh’s house in Chui village, apart from the statue, you will come across displays of skulls of enemies who were supposedly killed by the chiefs at various times. Chui village is located very close to the district headquarters of Mon and you can easily drive down to Basti in tourist taxis. The natural surroundings and the historical essence in every corner is worth a visit while planning a trip to Nagaland.
