The hill city has been amply blessed with green valleys, rolling hills and everything that goes along with them. This creativity in landscape has blended colonial heritage and the very colourful Mizo culture.
Aizawl is famous for being clean, having a pleasant climate, and being warm and welcoming to everyone. Political, Cultural and commercial are all based out of Aizawl and although rich in history, it is truly rooted in Christian traditions and core community values like "Tlawmngaihna", which is the spirit of generosity and harmony found in everyone. Visitors have plenty of activities to see and do, whether it be at one of the many scenic viewpoints or waterfalls, museums, or enjoying the great outdoors with so much to do and see.
No matter your reason for visiting, Aizawl will make for a relaxing and enjoyable time as you explore the many things nature and culture have to offer.

Christmas is grandly celebrated with illuminated streets and church services. Mim Kut and Pawl Kut are harvest festivals featuring folk songs and community feasts.

Mizo cuisine is simple, healthy, and minimally spiced. Popular dishes include Bai (vegetable stew with bamboo shoots), Vawksa Rep (smoked pork), and Sawhchiar (rice cooked with meat).

Smoked and fermented flavours dominate the cuisine. Tea and locally brewed rice beverages are also popular. Non-vegetarian dishes are widely preferred.
