By Deborah Price


For years, tourism has been a major revenue earner for India. Many tourists travel to it to explore the magnificent jungles and hills in its northeastern section. If your visit is on the cards, you might want to read on to know what you stand to get from northeast India tours.

With lots of fantastic destinations in it, choosing a specific spot in the northeast can be an arduous task. The destinations in this part of India are often sorted into individual packages by tour companies. This notwithstanding, one of the best regions to visit is Tawang. Before heading out, ensure your tour organizers have your transportation and accommodation needs sorted out.

Tawang is one of the administrative districts of the larger Arunachal Pradesh province. It is often regarded as the most pristine of all the local districts. There are many natural wonders in the district. Most tour agencies prefer exploring the many orchid gardens, cultures, valleys and ancient monasteries in the locality.

There are two transport options that one may choose. Your tour organizers may fly you straight to Guwahati airport or take you to the area by train. Many investors have taken advantage of the tourism potential that the region has and have put up good hotels in the area. Once you arrive, you might want to check out the Kamakhya Devi Temple. Later, spend the night in one of the local five star hotels.

Most Indian districts are large. Your itinerary for day two should start at Bhalukpong, a 254 kilometer journey from Guwahati. Its diverse plant species are its major selling point. A highly visited local garden houses more than 450 exotic orchids, a first in India. A snow fed waterway called the Kameng snakes through the vast expanse of Bhalukpong.

Another important attraction, Dirang, lies five hours away from Bhalukpong by road. It is home to the Monpa valley, an 8600ft escarpment. When around, explore the Bomdila Monastery as well. It was opened in the year 1965 and is currently used by Buddhist monks and Lamas.

A visit to Tawang town should add more sparkle to your tour. A full day is what you need to explore it. The Tawang Monastery is always the talk of town. It dates back to the 1600s when it was built by Mera Lama Lodre Gyaltso. Today, it houses Buddhist scriptures and more than 500 monks. The Monpa Village and Urgelling Monastery are top sites too.

Twenty five kilometers away lies the 1962 Indo China War Memorial. It is a site built in memory of a soldier whose heroic actions during the war made him stand out. According to historical accounts, the soldier defended his position against the Chinese for 72 hours without help. The post was at an altitude of 10000 feet. Despite his heroic act, the wounds he sustained while at it proved fatal. The memorial is surrounded by nature trails.
