Mizoram [ dead link ] lies in the southernmost outpost of extreme North-Eastern India , the land of the Blue Mountains. Manipur , Assam and Tripura bind the northern end of this little island of tranquility with neighbouring countries Myanmar and Bangladesh nestling most of the state between them.
Evergreen ranges of Mizoram hills with blooms of exotic flora and dense bamboo jungles rise sharply from the plains of Assam in a north-south direction. These hills and plunging gorges are criss-crossed by gushing rivers and sparkling waterfalls. Highest among its several peaks is the Phawngpui (Blue Mountain).
Mizoram is a kaleidoscopic 'pleasure trove' for the discerning visitor, with its wide array of festivals and dances, handicrafts, flora and fauna, breathtaking natural beauty, and temperate climate. The Mizos are very friendly and hospitable. English is commonly spoken. The joyful enthusiasm and the gregarious spirit of the local populace have been the main reasons for establishing some of the most attractive tourism features in this beautiful state.
Today, Mizoram is a dazzling mix of this cross-cultural vibrancy with 87% literacy (the second-highest in India, a fact in which every Mizo takes genuine pride), gender equality and a vigorous pursuit of its ancient cultural traditions and social mores. Almost everybody in the state is a Christian by religion and yet they haven't allowed their distinct Mizo culture to fade.
You will find women working everywhere in Mizoram. In fact, all shops are run and managed by women. Men tend to be taxi drivers or do harder labour by being car/scooter mechanics, working in the fields, et al. Women are respected, are safe and enjoy considerable freedom. Smoking and chewing tobacco paan/gutkha is very common in Mizoram. Many women too smoke, eat tobacco paan, gutkha etc. Comfortable and decent western clothing is uniformly worn across the state and Mizo women dress up quite smartly with makeup in small villages and cities alike. Divorces are common and so are re-marriages.
People give priority for self-sufficiency and you find no beggars anywhere in Mizoram. The crime rate is almost nil and most Mizo houses in villages and small towns are unlocked. The only thefts are due to some drug addicts.
Overall the society is quite homogeneous, peace-loving and classless. Corruption, however, has widened the gap between rich and poor and threatens the social fabric.
History often varies from legends. But the story of the Mizos getting out into open from the neither world through a rock opening is now part of the Mizo fable. Chhinlung, however, is taken by some as the Chinese city of Sinlung or Chinlingsang situated close to the Sino-Burmese border. The Mizos have songs and stories about the glory of the ancient Chhinlung civilization handed down from one generation to another.
It is hard to tell how far the story is true. It is nevertheless possible that the Mizos came from Sinlung or Chinlungsan located on the banks of the river Yalung in China.
All cities, towns and villages are located on top of mountains. This is because in earlier times, Mizo tribes used to fight with each other and to make the attacking enemy's job more difficult, it was considered safer to create settlements atop mountains.
The two official languages of the state are English and Mizo.
Mizo is a Tibeto-Burman language and there have been efforts to have it included in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution of India. It is a tonal, highly analytical language, written using the Latin script.
English is widely used in everyday business. You should not have any problems getting by with English.
Hindi isn't spoken by many people, even in Aizawl .
All Indian citizens (with the exception of ethnic Mizos) have to apply for an Inner Line Permit (ILP) to enter the state. There are two ILPs which you can apply for: A temporary permit (valid for 15 days) or a regular permit (valid for 6 months). Regular permits require sponsorship from a local or a government agency.
Mizoram has only one airport, Lengpui Airport, which is near Aizawl , and this airport can be reached from Kolkata by air which will take around 1hr and also from Guwahati by air within a short period of 30 min. The road from the airport to the city takes around another 1 h, and the taxi rate will cost ₹600 to reach the city. Look out for people who can share the ride as you may be able to pay half that price.
You can also try for a shared (TATA) Sumo which charges 100/- per seat and takes 10 passegers - 2 ahead, 4 in middle and 4 at the back. But make sure that you act very fast and book a seat as there could be just one or two Sumos.
Mizoram is connected through National Highway 54 from Silchar , Assam .
Mizoram is connected through its rail head in Bairabi in Kolasib District.
You can get around depending upon your budget.
Different types of car are available for rentals. From SUVs to Small Cars. TATA Sumos are available from one town to another at a reasonable rate on seat basis. There are many booking counters around Lower Zarkawt, Dawrpui (near Millenium Centre) and in Upper Zarkawt in Aizwal where one can book a seat with choice of seat no. A trip to Champai costs nearly ₹400/- per head. Any such SUMO takes 10 passengers - 2 ahead, 4 in middle and 4 at the back.
Exclusively hired vehicles are available at ₹15/- per km + ₹800 for each night halt and upwards.
The white and yellow Maruti taxis mainly ply the cities and towns and around the countryside. You need to haggle for the price to get a good deal.
Mizoram has a state transport corporation that connects the whole of Mizoram. The cities and towns are also serviced by minibus and by sumo. The rides are very bumpy and the buses are not so spacious. If you can shell some extra money and hire a cab, do so because it will be really painful the next day.
Being a mountainous, hilly state, Mizoram is full of beautiful, serene, pristine sights.
Located approximately 85km away from Aizawl , Tamdil is reputed for its marine wildlife. Along the way, you can truly appreciate some of the prettiest areas of the state.
The Mizoram State Museum is an ethnographic museum dedicated to the Mizos. There are sections dedicated to textiles, history, art, zoology, and to name a few. To truly appreciate and understand the Mizos, this is the main place to go to. Photography is forbidden without prior permission from the staff, and a guide is available on request.
Surrounded by a vast stretch of thick bamboo forests close to Thenzawl hill station is Mizoram's highest waterfall Vantawng (750 ft high). Located 152 km from Aizawl, this popular water body is worth a visit. You can evn stay overnight as it has cafeteria and cottage for hire.
Drive along the fertile plains of Champhai, about 200 km from Aizawl, to enjoy the stunning vista of emerald rice fields bordered by the smoky hills of Myanmar. Champai has the biggest stretch of plains in Mizoram which is used for rice cultivation.
This bustling commercial hub on the Indo-Myanmar borderline also attracts nature lovers by the droves. You can book accommodation in a government lodge. All the huts have scenic view of beautiful hills in Myanmar. It is worth enjoying the clear sky at night. You will realize that there are more stars in the sky than you thought.
The road from Aizwal to Champai is not very good in some places and it takes about 8 hours one way by a shared SUMO. A privately hired car may take about 6-7 hrs. Top speed of only 40 km per hr is possible. But the raw and yet scenic beauty one enjoys along the winding, turning road which goes through thick forests, is a memorable experience.
One of the finest encounter with Mizoram's splendid vistas is Phawngpui, its highest peak, extremely popular with trekkers and adventure enthusiasts. The Blue Mountain, as it is often referred to, is 300 km from Aizawl and close to the Myanmar border. Fragrant herbs and rare species of orchids and rhododendrons are found here.
Saiha is an angler's paradise on the Chhimtuipui, Mizoram's biggest river, 378 km from Aizawl. An overnight stay can be arranged at the tourist lodge at Saiha. Phawngpui (Blue Mountain) is 30 km away.
This district town in South Mizoram is a popular hill station, with fascinating vignettes of Mizoram's legendary natural beauty.
This is a very beautiful lake situated in Myanmar and is very close to the Indo-Myanmar border. Rih means heart. Dil means lake. This lake is heart-shaped. You can reach this place from Champhai. You need to catch an auto from the government lodge to reach Champhai Bazaar. Then you need to reserve a seat in a shared SUV which leaves for Zokhawthar (roughly meaning a 'new Mizo village'). Zokhawthar is situated at the Indo-Burma border. Get a permit (about ₹10) from the Burmese outpost to enter Burma.
Once you enter Burma, you can walk up to the lake which is around 1.5 km from the outpost or you can hire a bike which will be driven by a Burmese. You need to start your journey early in the morning, not because the place is far but because unless the shared SUV gets all the passengers, it will not leave for Zokhawthar, and there are only a few such shared SUVs running between Champhai and Zokhawthar. It is better you hire a cab in Champhai. It is also possible to take your vehicle (if you have exclusively hired it) inside for a fee. Ask the driver to do the needful.
There is restaurant by the lake side and about six cottages for stay, which are owned by the restaurant. You can take a boat ride in the lake, which costs ₹400/- for full perimeter ride for 10 people and ₹200/- for half round. Indian currency is accepted.
Dampa is a tiger reserve located in West Phaileng district and is 127 km from Aizawl. It is better to book the government lodge well in advance. You need the permit from forest officer staying in West Phaileng to enter Dampa forest. This can be done also from forest department in Aizawl. You should be careful while visiting the forest on a rainy day as it is infested with leeches. This Sanctuary has different types of Birds and Animal, like Tiger, Elephants.
This is a very nice place near Aizawl and is a must-see. If you hire a full taxi (Maruti 800/ Alto), it would cost you about ₹1300-₹1400. A hired non AC small car like Wagon R, Indica, Santro etc., it will cost you ₹1800/-
It has a model Mizo Village. Entry ticket is ₹20/- for adults and ₹10/- for children. Ask the ticket clerk for someone to show you around otherwise you won't understand the exhibits. No extra charge for such a guide.
There are four well furnished government cottages (with hot water) there for night stay, which should be an exotic experience. It costs just ₹400/- per day and needs to be booked in advance. There is also a cafeteria where you can have meals provided you give at least 2 hours notice. The cook is from Guwahati and makes excellent food.
There is a small trek up the mountain from the model Mozo village, which one must do. It takes you up to top of the mountain with a cliff to give you wide, breathtaking view. One must spend some time there. The climb is also quite pleasant and passes through thick forest. You can carry some picnic snacks and drinking water to the top. But make sure you don't litter the place and bring back the waste to dustbins near cafeteria, to maintain the natural, pristine beauty of the place.
In December especially in Christmas time, this place is full of festivities with live music shows atop the mountain, and there is a small stage built up there).
If you are an early bird, get up early in the morning and see the lakes of cloud all around the cities and towns as most of them are built on the mountain tops.
Visit Hnam Chhantu Pawl that sells local handicraft items at very reasonable rates. This is a shop run by an NGO and is located in Electric Veng, Near Grace Hospital And Nursing, Aizawl. Ask for Champai Sumo counters, the shop is closeby, on second floor of a building. It is a very famous store, so you can ask local people and they will guide you. Alternately, you can reach the store at [email protected].
The main shopping centers in Aizawl is Bara Bazar, Millenium Centre and Solomon's cave. Here all kinds of wears from garments, cosmetics, shoes to vegetable, poultry are available. These are the main city shopping center. For handicrafts, Zohanco in Zarkawt has shawls, puan, bags and furnishing materials. For bamboo works such as baskets, khumbeu the finely mizo woven bamboo cap are available at MKVI, Sales Emporium, Zarkawt. However the prices may not be very different from Mumbai or Delhi.
The Mizo people love boiled and non-vegetarian food. Rice is the staple food of the state and is used in literally every single dish.
Mizoram is a dry state. However, with the lifting of total prohibition in 2010, you can now get Mizoram's very own grape wine, Zawlaidi, which has alcohol content of 14%, for ₹170/- per bottle. There are no nightclubs or pubs and almost all shops close by 6PM.
Mizoram is one of the safest states in Northeast India in terms of crime, personal safety and insurgency. Most people, including single female travelers, will not face any problems walking along the streets alone at night.
Mizoram is sandwiched between Bangladesh and Myanmar , so it could be possible for you to visit the border towns for foreign goods from both countries. Be careful not to bring in alcohol, as it is prohibited in Mizoram.

Mizoram Tourism (India) (2024) - A Complete Travel Guide
Beyond Wild Places
Your guide to the wilder side of life
Mizoram and Tripura are often clumped together, not because they’re much alike, in fact they’re actually very different. However, they are both the least accessible and therefore, least explored states in Northeast India and both get very few visitors, rarely any foreigners.
Mizoram is perhaps the most isolated state, basically making you pass through Silchar in Assam to come in and out of the state by road. The state is home to some of the last untouched wilderness in India, with incredible green rolling hills for miles.
Tripura is an interesting state; a blend of cultures and religions, but is probably more ‘Indian’ than Mizoram and has a much similar vibe to Assam than to any other Northeastern state.
For exploring both Mizoram and Tripura by land, Silchar in Assam will be your base/start point and you may find yourself going back and forth from there a few times (as I did). Keep reading to find out how to explore these two states in Northeast India.

Silchar is a bustling town with a lively bazaar street in Assam state. There are plenty of hotels and restaurants around as it is also a major transport hub. This is the base from where you can easily explore both Mizoram and Tripura. Land transport into both of these states are very limited, and I found that using Silchar as a base was by far the easiest.
I stayed at Sewak Lodge in Silchar. The rooms are large, the location is perfect for multiple transport options, staff were nice and the WiFi is also really good: what more could you want? I found it actually cheaper to book it online for some reason than turning up without a booking. It’s pretty popular and can often be full.
Silchar is quite an easy place to reach from various towns in Assam. There is a train station and bus station, with multiple transport options depending on where you’re coming from.
Originally, I came by train from Jorhat , with an overnight stop in Lumding (half way point between Jorhat and Silchar). I then took another train the next morning from Lumding to Silchar.
If you’re coming from Guwahati , there are a couple of trains that head to Silchar as well. You can look up Indian train info and timetables here .
From Silchar, you can explore both Mizoram and Tripura. However, unfortunately, it’ll likely mean a return trip to Silchar in between. The roads between Mizoram and Tripura are extremely remote and rarely used, and I couldn’t find any public transport connecting the town states.
Mizoram is right up there as one of the least visited states in all of India. It’s quite an isolated state with very little transport connections to anywhere other than Silchar in Assam.
There’s not a whole lot to do in Mizoram and it doesn’t necessarily have any typical ‘tourist sights’. I was often asked, “What are you doing here?”. Still, the green rolling hills make the views spectacular from almost anywhere in the state and the people are very friendly.
English is extremely well spoken by most and many people will strike up a conversation with you either on the bus, in a sumo or on the street. They are genuinely curious and mostly want to know what you are doing in their state. Most people assumed I was either working or a Christian missionary and it took a bit of convincing to get them to understand that I was actually a real live tourist!
Still, I can recommend exploring a couple of places in the state, including the capital and some other towns further south.
Aizawl is a sprawling, modern city perched on the top of beautiful rolling hills. The capital of the state is a pretty clean, orderly and contemporary city centre if there ever was one in India (traffic even gives way to pedestrians!).
You’ll soon notice some differences between Mizoram and other parts of India. Women smoke openly in public, go for early morning runs in tights and walk around late at night without a hassle. In fact, a few local women told me on various occasions that I should feel 100% safe walking around, even at night or early in the morning, which was a refreshing change from other areas in India.
The Mizos are fiercely independent and believe that history somehow went wrong for them and perhaps they would have been better off separated from India. Interestingly, the Mizos share much more of their culture and traditions with ethnic groups in Myanmar and further north to the Chinese border. In fact, their ancestors migrated from Myanmar to the hills in Mizoram centuries ago and so many of them (probably mostly the older generation) don’t truly feel ‘Indian’.
There is limited industry in Mizoram and they have had to rely heavily on trade with neighbouring Bangladesh and Myanmar with very little infrastructure connecting them with the rest of India. Much of the economy is based on agriculture, yet surprisingly a lot of the hills are still covered in forest rather than crops which keeps the views spectacular.
I stayed at Arini Hotel , recommended by Lonely Planet, and seems to be very well known in general. I found the staff to be so friendly and always up for a chat and the rooms are really large, I was happy to spend a few days there. Check availability here .
The food is a little overpriced, however, I found a lot of the restaurants in Aizawl were pretty similar.
I took a shared sumo from Silchar at 8am. There are multiple companies in Silchar and they all leave at either 8am or 7pm, it’s best to book the day before in order to get a decent seat. The drive took around nine hours, but the views were beautiful, especially once you crossed into Mizoram.
At the state border, foreigners need to register with the officer on duty there. He didn’t even know how to fill in the registry book for foreigners so I had to help him out a bit and I still don’t think he did it right! The official sign at the office says that foreigners still require a permit but that is untrue as of 2018 and only Indians from other states require an ILP.
Thenzawl was recommended to me as a pretty town. It’s on the way between Aizawl and Lunglei so it’s not too much of a hassle to stop for the night.
It’s most well-known for having some beautiful waterfalls nearby. If you’re visiting after the rain season then they should be full of water, but they were practically dry when I visited at the start of the year. It still offers some incredible nature and lovely picnic parks to explore.
Tuirihiau Falls is located just 5 kilometres south of Thenzawl and is considered the most beautiful of all the waterfalls in Mizoram. The uniqueness of this waterfall is that you can step inside from behind the falls when they’re flowing well.
Thenzawl has a good government-run Tourist Lodge if you want to stay the night. I found it really comfortable with private rooms and ensuite bathrooms. Restaurants are a little few and far between in town but the food at the Lodge was delicious and reasonably priced.
From Aizawl, there is the State Transport Corporation (MST) bus and multiple sumo companies plying to Lunglei , the state’s second largest city. I chose to go with the bus and there were two leaving at 6am. They were mostly empty when I bought my ticket and only had around 15 people on it for the whole journey. They will stop half way in Thenzawl, to let you out if you let them know.
To leave Thenzawl, I took a sumo from Mim Restaurant where you’ll find the only transport counter. There are sumos leaving throughout the day but I took the first one at 6.30am to be safe.
Lunglei is the second largest town in Mizoram. The drive from Aizawl to Lunglei is simply spectacular, with incredible rolling hills in all directions.
There are beautiful national parks and wildlife sanctuary’s to the south of the city, however, with limited tourist infrastructure and being an independent traveller these places are a little inaccessible. I spent most of my time around Lunglei and admiring the views from different parts of town.
Hotel Elite in Lunglei is perhaps one of the best places I stayed in the Northeast. The owner is a very nice lady and the food was also very good. However, the view from the windows and balcony of the rooms is exceptional and I’m not sure I’ve ever had such a view from a hotel before, especially not a budget hotel for 600 INR per night. I can highly recommend it. It’s a steep walk up from the main street in town.
You can get to Lunglei on either the public buses or sumos. There are frequent departures between Lunglei and Aizawl, stopping in Thenzawl. The buses tend to have very early morning departures like 6am, while sumos leave a little later and throughout the day.
To leave Lunglei back to Aizawl, there are around six sumo counters next to each other on the Lunglei-Thenzawl Road. They leave throughout the day at around 6.30am, 10am, 12pm and 2pm, you can usually get a ticket on the day without pre-booking.
Note: Don’t plan on travelling in Mizoram on a Sunday. All transport stops on this rest day, with most of the population being Christian. It means you might have to spend the day in your hotel, with very few other shops open.
Tripura actually boasts a few beautiful tourist sights that are worth taking the time to explore. It’s a stark contrast to Mizoram, with less beautiful scenery but some interesting attractions. Tripura is also much more similar to Assam and the rest of India than Mizoram, with the bustling capital Agartala. However, it’s bordered on three sides by Bangladesh and its also home to some fascinating tribal groups.
The tourist offices and lodges all offer newly printed brochures and information on the state, but most of the sights are easily accessible on your own as well. Being a small state, most of the sights can be reached from Agartala quite easily.
Agartala, the state’s capital, is by no means a large city. It definitely has a small town vibe and is very walkable, although bustling enough to remind you that you’re in India.
The main attraction in Agartala is the Ujjayanta Palace , which houses the State Museum . It was so much more impressive than I had imagined and it’s definitely worth the 150 INR entrance ticket. It gives a nice detailed history and general information about Tripura but also the Northeast region as a whole with some beautifully displayed artefacts.
For my first night in the city I stayed at Hotel Welcome Palace , recommended by Lonely Planet and one of the most popular and well known places in the city. I discovered they are not exactly a budget choice and start from around 1000 INR. It was a nice bit of luxury for a change and the only hot water shower I had in the state. Check availability here .
From Agartala, the main tourist sites in the state are relatively accessible. The South Bus Station , south of the Battala Mahadev Temple roundabout and across the river, is the main transport hub for exploring the attractions in the south such as Neermahal and Udaipur.
There are buses, shared sumos and all sorts of other vehicles leaving in a constant stream and you only have to take one step near the place and you’ll have plenty of touts asking where you want to go.
Neermahal is a former royal palace built in the 1930s and although it might not be as extravagant as similar one’s in Rajasthan, it’s still a beautiful place to visit. It’s built in the middle of the lake and there are boats available to take you there. You can either hire a private boat yourself or pay per head and wait until it fills up.
I went at sunset, which was a perfect time for two reasons. First, there were plenty of other locals going at the same time so I was able to jump on with them and pay just 30 INR round trip for the boat. Second, the lighting was perfect and I would say the best time to go for photographs.
It’s empty and so there’s not much to see in the palace, but the architecture is nice and you are free to roam around the palace for an hour before taking the boat back.
There are frequent shared transport and buses leaving Agartala for Melaghar and back again. Melaghar is the main town where you can find the Neermahal palace. You can easily walk from where the bus drops you to the lake or take a tuk tuk.
In Melaghar, you only have to wait on the main street for a couple of minutes before a bus or other form of transport will come past for Agartala.
Just 150 metres away from the boat dock for Neermahal is the Tourist Lodge . You can stay for 700 INR for a single room. They also have food available which was delicious too. The manager is nice and handed me every brochure ever printed on tourism in Tripura that he found in his cabinet before I left!
Tripura Sundari temple is more than 500 years old and is one of the holiest Hindu shrines in the entire region. It’s still common practice to slaughter goats at the temple as a sacrifice, and many people come to bathe in the water of the lake. To be honest, it’s not very spectacular and despite it appearing on Tripura’s ‘must see’ attractions I wouldn’t go out of your way to see it, unless you time it with a religious ceremony or festival or are a Hindu yourself.
There are frequent buses leaving Agartala for Udaipur and vice versa, the journey only takes about two hours one way so you can see the Tripura Sundari Temple on a day trip from Agartala. Once in Udaipur you can take a shared autorickshaw for 20 INR to the temple.
Unakoti archaeological site is a pilgrimage place for worshippers of Lord Shiva. The rock carvings date back to the 7 th and 9 th century without any real evidence to suggest why or how. Sadly, a lot of the smaller rock-cut carvings have been defaced over the years. However, the larger ones are extremely impressive and are not something you will see anywhere else in India, adding to the intrigue.
The site is also free for both Indians and foreigners (although I’m not sure how long that will last) and it’s a very popular place for dignitaries and officials to visit when in the Northeast region.
Kailashahar is the main town from where you can explore Unakoti, located right on the border with Bangladesh. Unakoti Rock Carvings are around 10km from town and you’ll have to take an auto rickshaw to reach it.
At the moment, it’s a very underexplored place in the Northeast and I was an absolute celebrity for the one night I stayed in Kailashahar. Every second person stopped me to ask where I was from. I even met young girls in college who had never seen a white woman in person before! People were still relatively friendly, but it was a tiring place to spend time as a foreigner.
I stayed at the government Tourist Lodge in Kailashahar for 800 INR per night. I arrived in the morning and the lodge manager spoke zero English and kept shaking his head when I asked for a room.
He pointed to a sign that said all guests must pre-book online (which I hadn’t needed to for other tourist lodges). After standing my ground and not moving for a while, he finally called the only local guide who speaks English who came to translate and finally, I was given a room!
The guide, Rahul, told me there was actually a hotel in town called Hotel Nirmala , where you can also stay as a tourist. Rahul is available to hire as a guide for Unakoti if you wish (every local will know him, just ask around). Otherwise, you can explore the archaeological site on your own.
I caught the train from Agartala (the same line that goes to Silchar) and got off at Kumarghat where there are shared autos and vans waiting to take you to Kailashahar , just 20km down the road. There are a few trains per day taking this route, I left on the earliest one at 6.15am.
I returned to Kumarghat the next day for the train to Silchar which passed through at 2pm (an hour later than scheduled). Shared autos and buses leave from Kailashahar for the station at Kumarghat when full.

Mizoram is one of the seven north-eastern states of India. Located at the north-eastern edges of India, it shares its borders with the neighbouring countries of Myanmar and Bangladesh. Since more than 90% of the state is covered in the forested area, wildlife and nature are some of the primary features of the state. The Lushai Hills stretching across the entire region are known to host dense forest areas, heavily influencing the native habitat and lifestyle of the region. The state has the highest density of tribal inhabitants in comparison to the rest of the Indian states, owed mainly to the widespread forest region. A result of the topography of Mizoram is a rich culture of tribal practices along with their art and other traditions.
Mizoram, being a hilly region, experiences mild weather throughout the year. Owing to this, Mizoram is famous for its outdoor activities and adventures.

An experience of Mizoram stems not only from its beautiful landscapes but also from its rich tribal heritage and culture. The Mizo tribes, which consist of the aboriginal inhabitants of the region, are known to have migrated to the hilly Mizoram area during the early 1600s, from the step lands of modern China. For hundreds of years, the tribal population of the region flourished and created its own unique culture, which we today know as the heritage of Mizoram. After being annexed by the British empire, the demography of the region changed with the efforts of the British missionaries. A result of which is Mizoram’s modern culture with Catholicism at its centre. The marvellous churches and cathedrals stand witness to this cultural shift and are highly revered by the local population of the region.

Situated in the northeastern corner of India lies the scenic state Mizoram, bordered by Tripura, Assam, and Manipur , with Bangladesh and Myanmar to its southern edge. Aizawl, its capital and largest city, stands as the focal point of administration.
Enriched by a population comprising over 95% diverse tribal communities, Mizoram proudly embraces its cultural legacy.
Despite being India's second least populous state, Mizoram thrives economically on agriculture, particularly transitioning from traditional slash-and-burn agriculture to horticulture and bamboo-based industries.
Join us in this insightful article as we uncover the intricate tapestry of Mizoram's history, culture, economy, and more.
Mizoram, situated in northeastern India, derives its name from the fusion of two Mizo words: "Mizo," representing the people, and "ram," signifying "land." Thus, "Mizoram" translates to "land of the Mizos" or "Mizo land."
The history of the Mizos is mysterious, similar to that of numerous other tribes in the region. Referred to as Cucis or Kukis by neighbouring groups and British writers, the origins of the Mizos trace back to migration, likely occurring around 1500 CE from adjacent regions.
Prior to British colonial rule, Mizos resided in distinct villages, each governed by a tribal chief. Despite their authority, these chiefs remained nominally under the control of Manipur, Tripura , and Burma.
The practice of head-hunting, customary among tribes, faced prohibition by the British in 1895. However, intertribal conflicts and raids persisted throughout the colonial era, resulting in considerable violence .
Post-independence, the Mizos launched campaigns against tribal chiefdoms, leading to the abolition of hereditary rights for chiefs.
This era also witnessed a rapid proliferation of Christianity in Mizoram, largely propelled by missionary endeavours backed by the British administration .
The discontent with the government's response to famine in the late 1950s fueled the emergence of political entities like the Mizo National Front (MNF), advocating for independence.
Mizoram transitioned to a Union Territory in 1971 and attained statehood in 1987 following the Mizoram Peace Accord, marking a pivotal milestone in its evolution as India's 23rd state.
Mizoram, nestled in North East India, shares borders with Myanmar and Bangladesh to the south, while its northern boundaries neighbour Manipur, Assam, and Tripura. Encompassing 21,087 square kilometres, it stretches between 21°56'N to 24°31'N and 92°16'E to 93°26'E, bisected by the Tropic of Cancer .
The terrain is characterised by undulating hills, verdant valleys, winding rivers, and serene lakes, with 21 prominent hill ranges or peaks dominating it. Forests cover 76% of the state, with Phawngpui Tlang towering as its highest peak at 2,210 meters.
Mizoram's climate is a unique mix of mildness and monsoons. The average annual rainfall of 254 centimetres sustains its lush greenery. However, the state faces the occasional threat of cyclones and landslides.
The state's rich biodiversity thrives within its tropical forests, boasting varied vegetation like semi-evergreen, moist deciduous, and subtropical pine forests. Bamboo, covering roughly 44% of its expanse, is abundant.
This diverse ecosystem hosts a plethora of wildlife, from birds to mammals, including the revered red serow (the state animal), tigers, and leopards, alongside numerous reptiles, amphibians, and fish.
Notably, Mizoram shelters two national parks and six wildlife sanctuaries, including the renowned Blue Mountain (Phawngpui) National Park and the esteemed Dampa Tiger Reserve.
Mizoram, with a population of over 1 million, is one of India's least populated states, experiencing a growth rate of 22.8% since the 2001 census. It boasts a higher sex ratio and impressive literacy rate, with more than half of its population living in urban areas.
The demographic landscape is a treasure trove of cultural diversity , primarily comprising various ethnic tribes collectively known as Mizos. These tribes, each with their unique customs and traditions, settled in Mizoram over successive waves, weaving a rich tapestry of the state's social fabric.
Christianity, particularly Presbyterianism, is the dominant religion introduced by Welsh missionaries in the late 19th century. Buddhism also has a significant presence, particularly among the Chakma people, while Hinduism and Judaism are observed by smaller population segments.
The state's official languages are Mizo and English, reflecting the linguistic diversity of its inhabitants.
The political evolution of Mizoram mirrors a shift from tribal chieftainship to contemporary administration. Initially, village lands were under the control of tribal chiefs, known as Lals, who ruled hereditarily without written laws.
Following British annexation in the 1890s, Mizoram fell under the administration of Assam and Bengal while retaining tribal traditions.
However, dissatisfaction arose due to perceived neglect and the famine of 1959–60, prompting the establishment of the Mizo National Front (MNF) in 1961, advocating for independence. This ultimately paved the way for statehood in 1987, followed by regular democratic elections.
Presently, the state is governed by a chief minister and legislative assembly, with grassroots democracy supported by Village Councils. The district administration is supervised by Deputy Commissioners and Superintendents of Police, ensuring effective governance at the local level.
Lunglei town, one of the eleven districts, is overseen by the Lunglei Municipal Council.
Mizoram's economy has exhibited consistent growth, with its Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP) reaching approximately ₹69.91 billion in 2011-2012 and US$3.57 billion by 2019.
The main drivers of this growth are agriculture, public administration, and construction , which make substantial contributions to the GSDP. However, poverty affects around 20.4% of the population, particularly in rural areas.
Despite challenges, Mizoram boasts a literate workforce and extensive road infrastructure, with plans underway to develop its hydroelectric potential.
Agriculture, primarily centred on rice cultivation and horticulture, engages the majority of the workforce, although the traditional practice of Jhum cultivation, or slash-and-burn agriculture, is gradually diminishing.
Moreover, Mizoram stands as a significant producer of bamboo, fish, and silk, contributing to its forestry and fisheries sectors. The state is also advancing in industrial development, with two industrial estates and plans for a software technology park.
However, energy remains a concern, prompting initiatives to harness hydroelectric power through projects like the Tuirial Dam and the proposed Kolodyne project.
Mizoram stands out in education, boasting an impressive literacy rate of 92%, second only to Kerala. With 3,894 schools and a commendable teacher-pupil ratio, the state emphasises education at all levels.
It is home to prestigious institutions like Mizoram University and the National Institute of Technology Mizoram.
In sports, especially football, Mizoram shines through the Mizoram Premier League, an annual event held from October to March.
Inaugurated in October 2012, the league has become the pinnacle of football competition in the state, featuring eight teams, including prominent clubs like Aizawl and Chanmari, attracting widespread attention and enthusiasm.
In the realm of media, while internet access is average, private TV channels and traditional mediums like Doordarshan, All India Radio, and local newspapers such as Vanglaini and Zalen cater to the information needs of the populace.
Despite the prevalence of these traditional mediums, the emergence of online platforms and websites in local dialects reflects Mizoram's evolving media landscape, effectively bridging the gap between tradition and modernity.
Mizoram's transport infrastructure is continuously improving to enhance connectivity both within the state and beyond its borders. The road network spans approximately 8,500 kilometres, linking urban centres and a significant portion of villages.
This network comprises national highways, state highways, and district roads, serving as the backbone of transportation despite challenges like landslides in certain areas.
Lengpui Airport acts as a crucial air link near Aizawl, while a helicopter service provided by Pawan Hans connects various towns, improving accessibility.
Additionally, Mizoram is initiating waterway development projects, notably the Kaladan Multi-modal Transit Transport Project. This ambitious endeavour aims to establish inland waterways along the Chhimtuipui River, facilitating trade with Burma.
With ongoing investments and infrastructure projects, Mizoram is poised for enhanced economic connectivity and growth.
Mizoram's culture is deeply rooted in its history and religious beliefs, mainly influenced by the spread of Christianity. One significant cultural principle is Tlawmngaihna, which embodies selflessness and perseverance and holds a central place in Mizo society.
Ancient Mizo tribes practised unique customs like Zawlbuk, a communal gathering space, and Nula-rim, a traditional courtship ritual.
Traditional festivals, known as kuts, are of utmost importance, with Chapchar Kut marking the arrival of spring and honouring Mizo heritage through music and dance.
Despite the passage of time, endeavours have been made to revive and conserve traditional dances like Cheraw, Khual Lam, Chheih Lam, and Chailam, each representing the vibrant cultural legacy of Mizoram.
These performing arts, characterised by colourful attire and rhythmic movements, remain pivotal in Mizoram's cultural identity, fostering community solidarity and joyous celebration.

Listen to Story
Mizoram Chief Minister Lalduhoma on Thursday said that the state government will launch a scheme to enable deserving people to avail interest-free loan up to Rs 50 lakh to achieve economic growth and improve the living condition of the masses.
Addressing the people on the occasion of the 78th Independence Day , Lalduhoma said that his government was firm on its goal of providing inclusive governance and development, of more accountability and transparency in government processes and a people centric administration with improved delivery of public services.
He claimed that there have been marked changes in various aspects of governance and administration under the Zoram People's Movement (ZPM) government in just eight months since it came to power in December last year.
Lalduhoma said that the state government has been making massive efforts to develop the state and will also launch a loan scheme, where the government will act as a guarantor, to help the deserving people, who are determined for economic growth.
"The Mizoram Ceiling on Government Guarantees Act, 2011 is proposed to be amended to enable deserving partners to avail loans upto Rs 50 lakh, where the government will be the guarantor and will also bear the interest. This perhaps might be the first such scheme in the country," the chief minister said after unfurling the tri-colour at Lammual in Aizawl.
He said that the government will also soon launch a new and comprehensive healthcare scheme called 'Universal Health Care Scheme' which will cover the general population, government servants and pensioners.
He said that the state government prioritised fiscal stabilisation and financial consolidation to improve the financial status of the state.
Lalduhoma said that his government has launched Mizoram Sustainable Investment Policy 2024 in February to attract private investors and investment from within and outside the state.
The policy provides for a comprehensive investment framework to stimulate economic growth and promote investment that aligns with sustainable growth, he said.
The chief minister said that his government is also committed to the purchase of local agriculture or horticulture products, food processing, marketing of agriculture and allied products, promotion of entrepreneurship and skill development, creating employment avenues or job placements for the youths, giving impetus to small-scale and agro-based industries under the state flagship programme 'Bana Kaih' or Hand Holding policy.
He said that the 'Bana Kaih' policy will be converged with various programmes, initiatives and schemes of the Central government.
Citing that his government has been making constant efforts to fight against drug menace, Lalduhoma said that drugs worth over Rs 66.8 crore have been seized so far.
He thanked the law enforcement agencies, security forces and civil society organisations for their efforts towards combating drugs.
He said that a 'State Level Core Committee on Ruihhlo Do' (Core committee on war against drug) has been reconstituted to revitalise the fight against the drug menace.
As regards administrative reforms, Lalduhoma said that the reduction of vehicles possessed by ministers, discontinuation of proxy or substitute staff, reduction of entitlement of household peons to officers, among others are being implemented.
The council of ministers has recently approved the hike in subsidised rates of foodgrains for households not covered under the National Food Security Act or white ration cardholders and cancellation of certain categories of ration cards to ensure that subsidised grains reach the target beneficiaries, he said.
This bold step will save the government approximately Rs 3 crore every month, he said.
According to the chief minister, 1.3 lakh rural houses, 2,385 state-run schools, 1,567 Aanganwadi centres have been provided with tap water connections under the ambitious Centre's Jal Jeevan Mission (JJM) scheme.
