Nibode village just got its first tourists

Arunachal Pradesh

Nibode Ji Suku is a place you cannot find on Google. The remote village in hilly Changlang district of Arunachal Pradesh is situated 600 meters above sea level. (Changlang is 25 kilometres away from the Assam border.) Nibode Ji Suku is so inaccessible and unexplored that when its first tourists arrived recently, the entire village with a population of 150-200 turned up to receive the group with songs, dancing and home-cooked food, including rice cakes and fire roasted corn.

The tourists who drove to Nibode Ji Suku in Mahindra Thar from Miao were a part of the Trans Arunachal Drive, curated by the State Board of Tourism, to showcase the improvement of roadways and last-mile connectivity. Nibode is 150 kilometres from Miao, a subdivision in Changlang district and the nearest city with road connectivity.
