write a travelogue on a trip to Manipur
Answers
Explanation:
I always had this urge of mine to travel through all of the beautiful North Eastern States. After Sikkim and Meghalaya, proceeding towards Manipur is another step forward to that of my wish. Though the Manipur Tourism website didn’t proved to be much fruitful, but then I stumbled upon Here and Thereness which helped me making my dreams come true. I’m glad that I found this blog by Sumita Maam. This women in her fifty’s have travelled alone through various North Eastern states including Manipur, Mizoram, Nagaland etc. and her blog is a jewel for anyone planning to visit these states.
After planning Meghalaya for 11N/12D, I still had 3N/4D left, which I was mostly confused with. Whether to proceed towards Garo Hills or to explore a new destination if possible. Thanks to Sumita Maam from Here and Thereness and Bornav from TripAdvisor Forums, with help of them, I could plan for Manipur. Sumita Maam, confirmed that 3N would be just perfect for a basic circuit of Manipur.
