Imagine a high-rise crowded hill station in the eastern Himalaya! And we thought the urban sprawls of Mussoorie and Shimla were bad!!! Who allowed Aizawl to get this crowded and vertical?? Here's a look at Aizawl city viewed from atop! Viewer ramans11 shared: "It looks like San Francisco :)" . Somehow, that thought never occurred to us! The capital state as well as the largest city of Mizoram is Aizawl; the center of all important government offices, state assembly house and civil secretariat. Aizawl is also the main religious and cultural centers of the Mizos, the ethnic tribe of Mizoram.The city lies just north of the Tropic of cancer and is located at 3715 feet from the sea level. A bird's eye view of the city will sure catch the attention of the beholder. Some of the notable places once you get to Aizawl city are Mizoram State Museum, Durtlang Hills, Mini Zoo, Bara Bazar, Luangmual Handicarfts Centre and Berawtlang Tourist Complex. Apart from these tourist sites, the nearby tourist attractions are Bung, Paikhai, Tamdil lake, Dampa Wildlife Sanctuary, Kolasib, Vantawng waterfalls, Champhai, Phawngpui, Saiha and Lunglei. courtesy: http://mizoram.nic.in/more/aizawl.htm This footage is part of the professionally-shot broadcast stock footage archive of Wilderness Films India Ltd., the largest collection of imagery from South Asia.
