The MAN|May 01, 2021
Road trips are the go-to travel resort in the covid-19 world, and here was a drive to remember! Arunachal Pradesh tourism, backed by Mahindra Adventure and JK Tyres, flagged off a first-of-its-kind 15-day drive covering 2,500km of the state's eye-soothing sights explored by a convoy of newly-launched, rough and tough Mahindra thar jeeps and Scorpios, fitted with all-terrain JK Tyres

BIRD'S EYE-VIEW

The fleet of beasts at the picturesque Geku, a tiny village located on the Siang River in the upper Siang district. The mighty Brahmaputra river is called Siang in Arunachal Pradesh. This quaint village, one of the many night halts during the Trans-Arunachal drive, is replete with lush green, misty mountains, valleys, rivers, and lakes, making it an ideal getaway to satiate adventure junkies with activities ranging from trekking and hiking to angling and camping, in their raw form

WHERE THE SUN RISES

A GENTLE reminder that when the sun rays strike in India, they shine in Arunachal Pradesh — the Land of the Rising Sun — first. This is a signboard at Namsai, a foothill district and a popular tourist destination in east Arunachal Pradesh, bordering Assam. In the local language, Nam means water and Sai means sand, signifying the elements that are key to the place, which is also home to the state's Tai Khamti and Singpho tribes
