Why December here
A large limestone cave system near Ukhrul with several chambers and a wartime story.
Khangkhui (Khangkhui Mangsor) is a big limestone cave near Ukhrul: several chambers deep, used as shelter during WWII, and a local natural landmark with bat colonies in the dark sections.
Wildlife this month: Birding at its best through March.
