Aoling & Mopin Festivals - Beyond Your Imagination

Holiday Scout posted on 02 June 2015
Every year in April, the tribes of Arunachal Pradesh and Nagaland prepare their fields for sowing. Upon completion of the hard work, vibrant harvest festivals ensue. For seven days feasts are enjoyed, rice beer is drunk, colourful dances are performed and deities are worshiped in anticipation of a bountiful crop. This majestic display of ethnic pageantry truly takes one to the boundaries of the imagination.
