The Naga Heritage
The only place where we can have a glimpse of the Tribal customs is in the Tribal Heritage Centre. Here, the culture of Nagaland is preserved intact in the Window to Nagaland area. There are sixteen different tribes in Nagaland with their own peculiar type of huts, ceremonial drums, head dress and art and culture. They have distinct languages too but by a common understanding they now speak Nagamese a combination of Assamese and Hindi. To see Nagaland captured in a single place one should visit The Heritage Centre during the Hornbill Festival in the first week of December. All the tribes assemble here at that time and display their dance, music and cuisine.
