Longwa Village (Indo-Myanmar Border Chief's House)

Longwa Village (Indo-Myanmar Border Chief's House)

Mon & Konyak Border Highlands

Perched dramatically along the crest of the Patkai mountain range, Longwa is an extraordinary geopolitical wonder. The international boundary between India and Myanmar runs directly through the house of the hereditary Chief (Angh) — so the Angh sleeps in India and dines in Myanmar. The villagers hold dual citizenship and roam freely across both nations.
