A Naga thoughNever have seen all the tribes culture and tradition before been here.Learned more then expected.

Beautiful place.must visit.

Good place to know culture of NagalandMust visit during hornbill festival

Hornbill festival organized here.. but all tribes wise huts build here.. and the structure and wood craft and intresting things here... ButI dont know who did that, locals or tourist, there huts fill with garbage. When i saw that my heart stoped for micro seconds..Nagaland government should take responsibility of this place...

Visited this beautiful place last year december 5 2021, breathtaking experience.would recommend everyone to visit this place atleast once in their lifetime.

Naga Heritage Village also known as Kisama Heritage Village is only one in Nagaland. The place is wrapped in breathtaking scenic views at the foothills of the lustrous and evergreen hills on the borderline of this village. It is surrounded by all types of flora. Naga Heritage village is rich in its tradition and cultural activities. Being one of the prime tourist attractions, the village sees hundreds of tourists round the year. Visiting this place is an experience of one of its kind and probably different from any part of the country. Its rich heritage speaks volumes about its cultures and customs. On visiting, you will see the unique thatched roofs on the traditionally built houses, its wooden walls and delicately and neatly done carvings of different designs – all of it has an age old rural essence. You will feel living just simply in a different era in your lifetime.

One must visit Hornbill Festival it is recommended to know about our brothers in the North East. Beautiful Place and Wonderful Culture.

This is a showcase for the traditional culture of Nagalands multiple tribes. There are traditional huts built as per each of Nagalands tribes along with an amphitheatre, shops selling traditional items and multiple restaurants

I love festivalI love foodI love Nagaland💞💖❣️😍

It is famous for the great hornbill festival of Nagaland. Construction of Morangs are going on, to host the upcoming festival in December.

A must visit place during the Hornbill Festivals.

Visiting Hornbill Festival was in my bucket list & upon visiting it in December 2021 I realised what a GRAND & SPECTACULAR event it is. Held annually at Kisama, a short distance from Kohima in Nagaland, this is a treat to all senses! A conglomeration of Nagalands ethnic tribes showcasing their culture, art, dance, costumes, food etc. A visit to this festival will truly be worth it in realising the true essence of Unity in diversity of India!To Note: Do make hotel room/accommodation bookings well in advance if you plan to visit during the festival.

Excellent place to see the Heritage of Nagaland. Traditional houses of various tribes are made here to see their lifestyles. Also there is a world war 2 museum.Must visit during the hornbill festival every years from 1st to 10th December. Can see see all the tribes and their festivals and taste their food.

Poorly maintained for visitors who visit outside hornbill festival. The place is very well located and has a good feeling.

A great idea to co-locate the entire culture of Nagaland at One place.Nagaland is known for its diversity of tribes, their culture, habitat, dressing sense, language and social practices. One would have to travel far and wide to experience the hole of Nagaland the Heritage village has been created for the very purpose of bringing the entire Nagaland at one place. So it is a mini Nagaland, in a way.Every year in the first week of September Hornbill festival is held in Heritage Village where all the tribes put up a display of their traditional attire, cuisine in the sense of their native habitat.And rest of the days that will it remains abandoned but one can get a sense of their villages because the structure remain open with morungs (dormitories for the youngsters, which is also used as signal centres for giving warning signals in earlier dayson display.

A great time to visit these days, not rush & free to party.

Its good and the Naga traditional dresses cultures food all will be available. I visited Naga heritage village at the time of hornbill festival it is in the month of December. I enjoyed a lot there. There will be number of programmes will be held. The hospitality of Naga people is good. The food available is very much tasty and authentic.

A nice place to see Nagaland culture and especially in these ten days of Hornbill festival. A big and nice amphitheatre, two large shopping areas, a lot to relish your taste buds and lively atmosphere... Must visit at least once in lifetime event.

Very beautiful place and wonderful people. Enjoyed seeing all the different tribes. This is worth your visit while at Kohima. This will explain a lot of the Naga tradition. There is a nice homely cafe too in the vicinity

Nice place to hang out, ideal place for family picnic too. Also visit during Hornbill Festival from 1st to 10th December every year and explore more.

Great place to visit!! The hornbill festival starts from 1-10th December. You will witness great culture of the Naga people.

This place showed me the ethnic diversity of nagaland I love it❤️

Good place to learn Naga culture and about tribe. Nice build cultural cottage representing different community. Must visit even in off season. Not very far from Kohima approx 15 min drive.

Really good experience. Very knowledgeable and presented it in detail. Heritage and culture of Nagaland has been presented there. Must visit.

Culture of Nagaland has been beautifully showcased here and it also very well maintained. Though the best time to visit this place is during the Hornbill festival which is celebrated from 1st to 10th of December every year. Surely you will not be disappointed visiting this place, its worth it.

Good initiative to represent their culture and tradition for visitor.

This is the place where all the people of the Nagas come together here and sing "Hoi-Hei Hoi-Hei.Copy Past:Brief history of Naga Heritage Village Kisama.The nomenclature of KISAMA is derived from two villages namely, Kigwema (KIand Phesama(SAand MA which means Village, on whose land the Naga Heritage Village is established and commissioned by the State Government of Nagaland.Situated about 10 kilometers from Kohima, the Naga Heritage Village offers a panorama of natures, cheerful and hospitality of people.

It also aims to uphold and sustain the distinct identity of dialects, customs and traditions of all the ehtnic tribes of Nagland.During the festivities of Hornbill Festival, the Heritage Village serves as a healthy sign, vision and encouragement for uniting the various tribes of Nagaland to showcase their rich cultural heritage and tradition under the aegis of "Hornbill Festival" in one platform where one could have a glimpse and experience into the Heritage Village, Kisama.It also serves as a stage where different occasions and funcitons for various societies, unions are organized and taken place all round the year.The Heritage Complex consists of a cluster of sixteen houses of each tribe created in the indigenous typical architectural designs and concepts with significance. The tribal house is also called "Morung or Youth Dormitory". Colorful life and culture are a vital part of 16 officially recognized Naga tribes. They are different and unique in their customs and traditions. These customs and traditions are further translated into festivals. Songs and dances form a sould of these festivals through which their oral history has been pased down genrations. Nature has been kind to the Nagas and their land by virtue of natural and scenic beauty and making it a tourist hotspot.The Heritage Complex also house a World War II Museum, Bamboo Heritage Hall, Bamboo Pavilion, Kids Carnival, Horti-Scape, Food Courts and Stadium for Live concerts, Naga Idol, Beauty Pageant, Fashion Shows, etc.

It was an awesome experience witnessing the hornbill festival here. The people are so humble and nice. Glad to have made a few friends at the festival. You are bound to be inspired seeing the Nagas, their talents, their valor and their enthusiasm! A lot of souvenirs are up for grabs and dont forget to have a glass of rice beer! Ill surely be visiting the festival again.

This place reflects the whole of Nagaland. The Hornbill festival is held here from Dec 01 to Dec 10 every year and is the place to be to celebrate the festival of festivals. There are numerous indigenous groups that participate each year in the festival. Surrounded by hills and a great view, it has a green surrounding with lots of traditional buildings that showcases or reflects the social life of the Nagas.

Have an once in a lifetime experience to visit the Hornbill festival which is conducted on Dec 1-10 every year..Place is around 10kms from Kohima easily accessible by road and have good camping and homestay options within d venue..There r a good number of stalls displaying the cultural heritage of Nagaland with plenty of memorabilia..Not to say, try their exotic food which will be available only here.. dont miss their rice beer..Since its conducted in Dec every yr, temperature will go as low as 2 deg at night. So be prepared for that chill weather..Four laning of Dimapur - Kohima road is on d way and roads r really very bad.. will take 4 hrs to cover that stretch of 80 kms..

Excellent place for the famous Hornbill Festival.

Very well design and built tribal village to understand the livelihoods and cuisines of multiple ethnic tribes. Hornbill festival 2018 looked very much staged and unreal.

Great initiative by government towards promoting & Developing Nagaland tourism. Amazing exhibition of diversified Culture & tradition of all Nagaland Tribes. This is the same place where annual Hornbill fest is held.

The Hornbill festival is the time to visit Nagaland.. usually held during the first week of December it brings all the tribal community together. The moorongs showcase the culture of each tribe.. a must visit ..

First visit to Kisama for Hornbill Festival 2018. Fabulous time and amazing experience. Local Naga cuisine was served everywhere. Had the privilege to see all the Naga tribes stay and perform at a same platform.

Had an opportunity to visit the Hornbill Festival 2018..an excellent showcase of Naga culture and Heritage..

You will feel living just simply in a different era in your lifetime.Every year in the first week of December, this village celebrates the biggest festival of Northeast, The Hornbill Festival. In other words it is known as the king of festivals. As Nagaland is dependent completely on agriculture, this festival is very important and considered sacred among the tribes and communities.

It couldve been much better if there is a better maintenance whole year round and not only during the festival. If not, its a great place to visit and check the mornings of each tribe. The 2nd World War Museum is must visit if you happen to be here where there are pictures and artifacts displayed and explained in detail.

Naga Heritage Village is near Kohima. You can reach there by taxi. Nearest railway station is Dimapur. It is the place where Hornbill festival is organised. It is a beautiful place to visit. The Hornbill festival comprises of Cultural events, Music, Shopping, Eating and fun. A must visit place in the bucket list of every traveller and wanderer.
