Bomdila | |
Starting at the airport of Tezpur in Assam. The road passes through
low wooded slops about 60 kms beyond Tezpur. Anglers or those who
want a brief rest should wait till they encounter the broad spread
of the Bharali river as it emerges from the mountains into the
wooded upper plains. On the banks of the river, at an elevation 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. It has a tourist lodge, a Craft centre, Apple
orchards and Buddhist Gumphas. There are also views of Himalayan
landscapes and Snow clad ranges. Bomdila is a good place to rest
over nights.

Itanagar | |
|
Itanagar the capital of Naharlagun is enchanting. The people of
Itanagar are the greatest attraction of this beautiful land. The
Nishi warriors wearing their 'bopiah' hornbill caps, carrying their
'chokh' bearskin bags with their 'oyjo' knives in their monkey-skin
'burkhey' scabbards are worth seeing. Itanagar captures the spirit
of this desire to minimize the conflicts that arise when a
traditional society is guided into modernity. Traditional huts are
scattered amongst the more recent constructions and between them
lie the administrative offices, shops, the bazaar and thatched
huts. It's all very low-profile and unassuming and even the most
diffident tribal from the remotest village is unlikely to feel
uneasy when he comes to the capital. Itanagar has been identified
with Mayapur, the capital of the 11th century AD JItri dynasty.
