RIVER CHINDWIN CRUSING (2)
NAGA HIGHLAND TO MANDALAY

5 Days/ 4 Nights Chindwin River Cruising
Khamti - MonYwa - Mandalay

From the Tibetan Height to Andaman Sea, River Irrawaddy flows for 1,500 miles enabling a civilization to flourish. About at midway of her passage the river shifts slightly toward West to get merged with River Chindwin as the Central Mountain Range break briefly. Chindwin itself has its source at Himalaya and flows parallel and between River Brahmaputra of India and Irrawaddy.

Naga Highland is situated uphill in the watershed area of River Chindwin. Participation and observation of Naga tribes' traditional ceremonies and New Year festival are extremely new ventures for world travelers. Cultural observations of people from such remote places combined with Geographical exploration of exotic Asian Rivers are main features of this tour.
