  • About Dimapur District.
  • Dimapur is the largest city in Nagaland, India. In the Middle Ages, it was the capital of the Dimasa Kachari rulers. In the heart of the town there is an old historical object of the Dimasa Kachari Kingdom which speaks about the once wealthy era. Dimapur is the 115 th most crowded city in the country. It is located at 25°54′45″N 93°44′30″E and is surrounded by Kohima district on the south and east, Karbi Anglong district of Assam on the west, the Karbi Anglong and stretch of Golaghat District of Assam, in the west and the north. Dimapur city also has the only functional airport in the state. Dimapur contains ruins of temples, reservoirs and other monuments of which the most prominent are their monumental structures. The monoliths represent the complex customs of the sect of fertility. The wonderfully executed entrances to these monuments is in perfect condition even now. Blocks of stone and brick pieces with various patterns that lie scattered, still disclose the creativity. The North East Zone Cultural Center, which is about 3 km from the Dimapur railway station has a small well-preserved museum showcasing the cultural heritage of the Northeast. Market of Dimapur city are famous for imported goods from China , Burma and Thailand. On the outskirts lies Chumukedima from where one can take a short trek up the hill to the Naga Tourist Village and the Patkai Triple Falls. The North East- Zonal Cultural Center, the center for all cultural activities, is a kilometre away from Dimapur Airport.

    The Nagaland Industrial Growth Centre is located at Ganeshnagar of Dhansiripar Sub-Division, where most of the Dimasa Kachari lived — an area consisting of seven Dimasa Villages (Dhansiripar, Disaguphu, Amaluma, Doyapur, Ganeshnagar, Hazadisa and Manglumukh).


  • Dimapur District.
  • During World War II, Dimapur was the centre of action between British India and Imperial Japan. It was the staging post for the Allied offensive. The Japanese could reach Kohima where a siege was laid. Allied reinforcement came through Dimapur by rail and road for the push against the Japanese. An airport at Dimapur was also in use for supplies to the allied forces in Burma. The battle for Kohima about 77 km from Dimapur is considered the turning point for the Japanese retreat from South East Asia.

  • Kachari Ruins Rajbari Dimapur.
  • Kachari Ruins or The Dimasa Kachari Ruins is located in the town of Dimapur in Nagaland. The ruins are a series of mushroom domed pillars that were created by the Dimasa Kachari Kingdoms that ruled before the Ahom invasion during the 13th century. The purpose and origin of the pillars are mysterious; few of the pillars stand in full glory while others are crumbled down. It is also believed that a game similar to that of chess was played here with the mushroom shaped dooms. It is a glory of the North East and the tourism department of Nagaland. Although it is left in ruins after centuries of abandonment, after facing conflict with the Ahom King in 18th century and with the settlement of township occupying almost half of its former glorious fortress, is still a national heritage site. It signifies great historical importance for the region of North-East. It also gives great value to the state of Nagaland.

  • Dimasa Society.
  • The Dimasa society is tradition bound and guided by customs. A very outstanding feature of the Dimasa culture and an important aspect of their social relation is the existence of male and female clan. The male clan is called Sengphong and the female clan is known as Jadi or Julu. Hence a Dimasa bears allegiance to both male and female clan. There are forty male clan and forty-two female clan. Whether in marriage, religious practices, or in rituals connected with the death, the clans have a significant role to play. Hence the clan plays an important part while fixing the marriage of a boy or a girl. If they belong to the same male or female clan, they are not allowed to be married. Affiliation to one’s own respective clan is quite strong among the Dimasa. That clan ties are important among the Dimasa can be understood from instances when the entire members of the clan take offence if any member of the clan is offended by someone from outside their clan.
