EAST INDIA
ARUNACHAL PRADESH

Right at the top of north-eastern India, highest its six clustered sisters like a defensive helmet, is Arunachal Pradesh, the `Land of the Dawn-lit- Mountains.' This is the first Indian soil to welcome the morning sun. Dawn first illuminates Arunachal's border with China: a long border, which stretches all the way from its east, over to its northern limits and down to its north- western edge where it combines with Tibet. To its west is Bhutan and on its southern end it touches Assam, Nagaland and Burma before sweeping up to Calcutta.

BOMDILA

Starting at the airport of Tezpur in Assam. The road passes through low-forested slops about 60 kms beyond Tezpur.

On the banks of the river, at a height of 190 meters is Tipi, a glass house with over 7,500 orchids. From here the road is fairly steep as it soars up to the small headquarter of the West Kameng district Bomdila at a height of over 2530 meters.

ITANAGAR

Itanagar the capital of Naharlagun is enchanting. The people of Itanagar are the most attraction of this good-looking land. The Nishi warriors wearing their 'bopiah' hornbill caps, transport their 'chokh' bearskin bags with their 'oyjo' knives in their monkey-skin 'burkhey' scabbards are value seeing. Itanagar captures the courage of this wish to minimize the conflicts that arise when a traditional society is guided into modernity. Traditional huts are dotted amongst the more recent constructions and between them lay the organizational offices, shops, the bazaar and thatched huts. It's all very low profile and modest and even the most shy tribal from the furthest village is unlikely to feel anxious when he comes to the capital. Itanagar has been recognized with Mayapur, the capital of the 11th century AD JItri dynasty.
