Crowd Notes

Vantawng Falls

Worth visiting for the stunning natural beauty, but be prepared for a bumpy road and potential crowds during peak season.

A decent visit for families and nature lovers, but don't expect a large or particularly diverse collection of animals.

Khawnglung Wildlife Sanctuary

For serious wildlife enthusiasts only, requires patience and a good guide.

Chhingpuii Thlan (Chhingpuii's Tomb)

Worth a quick stop for cultural context, but not a major attraction.

Tuikhuahtlang Park

A pleasant spot for a relaxing break and some nice views, but not a destination in itself.

District Museum, Serchhip

A small museum, but worthwhile if you want to understand the local culture.
