Why December here
Phek district: Chakhesang and Pochury villages, terraced hills and the road to Pfutsero and Zhavame.
Phek is the large southern district of Chakhesang and Pochury country: steep terraced hills, the Pfutsero-Zhavame-Kapamodzü highlands, and villages that hold some of Nagaland’s strongest living traditions.
What to do
Terrace country
Some of the state’s most sculpted farmland.
