The quaint town of Mon in Nagaland, around 144 km away from Jorhat, is an ideal stopover for trekking and angling. Known as the land of the Konyak Nagas, the charming town makes for a perfect vacation spot for nature lovers and adventure travellers. Its traditional architecture and age-old sculptures are reminiscent of the historic past of the Konyaks and their culture. For scintillating views of the Brahmaputra river and the Chindwin river of Myanmar, head to the highest peak of Mon, the Veda peak. The Longwa village in Mon is the closest you can get to Myanmar as the Indo-Myanmar border passes through this village. Shangnyu and Chui are two other villages in Mon. Declared as ethnic villages, Shangnyu and Chui provide various educational research opportunities to anthropologists.
