Know about Manipur

Manipur literally means “A land of jewels” [Mani- Jewel, Pur- Land]. The state of Manipur is located within an exotic green corner of the North East India. It appears that Mother Nature has done an exquisite  work of  art  and  is indeed a place of unparalleled natural  beauty  and splendor,  the beauty of which had inspired Late Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru to make him describe it as “Jewel of India”.

Surrounded by blue and green hills  with valleys at the centre, rich in art, culture and tradition  and surcharged  with  nature’s  pure  glory, Manipur  lies on a melting pot of culture. It is the birth place of Polo. This is the place  the  famous Ras Lila took its birth, the classical dance of Manipur by the grace of Lord  Shri Krishna.
