KOHIMA WAR CEMETERY lies on the battle ground of Garrison Hill. No trace remains of the bungalow, which was destroyed in the fighting, but white concrete lines mark and preserve permanently the historic tennis court. The cemetery now contains 1,420 Commonwealth burials of the Second World War. At the highest point in the cemetery stands the KOHIMA CREMATION MEMORIAL commemorating 917 Hindu and Sikh soldiers whose remains were cremated in accordance with their faith.

This memorial holds an important position in the history of North-East India. Very touching to see that many of the soldiers who lost their lives in the battles in the region are very young, often in their twenties.

Naga Heritage Village also known as Kisama Heritage Village is only one in Nagaland. The place is wrapped in breathtaking scenic views at the foothills of the lustrous and evergreen hills on the borderline of this village. It is surrounded by all types of flora. Naga Heritage village is rich in its tradition and cultural activities.Visiting this place is an experience of one of its kind and probably different from any part of the country. Its rich heritage speaks volumes about its cultures and customs. On visiting, you will see the unique thatched roofs on the traditionally built houses, its wooden walls and delicately and neatly done carvings of different designs – all of it has an age old rural essence. You will feel living just simply in a different era in your lifetime. This village comprises of Morungs or 16 different houses that are designed and made in such a way that it symbolizes 16 communities of the population residing here. These communities have restored the artifacts of World War II, its food courts, traditionally bamboo made halls and a stadium which is famous for its Hornbill Festival. The scenic beauty of the village itself mesmerizes the tourists, and thus tourism has flourished in leaps and bounds in the region over the years.Every year in the first week of December, this village celebrates the biggest festival of Northeast, The Hornbill Festival. In other words it is known as the king of festivals. this festival is very important and considered sacred.

Very well designed museum which displays all aspect of Naga life, culture and history.The life size models were the best i have seen during my visit to several museums across the globe. You can also know about the important archaeological sites in Nagaland. Good paintings with accompanying models highlights the various sports activities of Naga tribal people. Educative for one and all BUT sadly lacks visitors both from India and abroad due to lack of proper advertisement among visitors.Dresses, weapons and daily used items were displayed to give proper emphasis to each aspect of Nagas .Lacks proper sanitation facilities in and aronud the museum.Sorry to say that NO relevant literatire and books. cards were available during my visit. It seems that no one cares about this unique museum.
