Aizawl is built on a single ridge at 1,132 metres — the city has no flat ground, no rickshaws, and no bicycles. Every street winds steeply and every view is a panorama of misty hills. The Durtlang Hills above the city give a 360° view of the entire ridge-city below. The Saturday market (Zaikhum) in the city centre is the social heart of the week — everything from woven shawls to live fish is sold.
Bargaining in the souks is mandatory — start at 30% of asking price.
🇮🇳 Aizawl Fun Fact

The Mizo people have a tradition called 'Tlawmngaihna' — an untranslatable concept of selfless service, hospitality, and putting others before oneself — which functions as the unofficial moral code of Mizo society.
