The Land Of Blue Mountain

The easternmost district of Mizoram, Saiha is sparsely populated and far away from bustling cities and developing infrastructure. Saiha is home to one of the enriched Indo-Myanmar biodiversity hotspot for its wide range of flora and fauna.

The place is less explored in the recent time which makes it a perfect spot to get lost in the wilderness. The name Saiha corresponds to 'Elephant’s tooth’ and in local cultures it is home to native tribal population who are said to have inhabited this area since time immemorial. An interesting feature of the place is the wide lakes and hills covered in the thin cloudy atmosphere which soak the entire area into dampened mist that never fails to tingle your senses on every visit.
