Sadu Chiru Waterfall - Natural scenic beauty near Imphal

- By Pupu Zou

Just about 25 kms from the state capital, one of the best site/spot for spending a holiday with family and friends. Sadu Chiru Waterfall is no doubt the most popular waterfall in Manipur. The waterfall is around 15m high and came cascading down from thick tropical forest. This is famous for its perennial Water Fall in a scenic foot hill.

The Physics & Chemistry: Lets talk a little bit about the physics and chemistry of Sadu Chiru Waterfall. Unlike other waterfall, this waterfall does not develop a deep trench at the foot where the falling water hits the ground thereby the force of pulling gravity is almost absent. Therefore, it is not dangerous to reach till the wall of the falling water. The water level is just knee deep and nothing to worry about sinking in the water. Sadu Chiru Waterfall Latitude is 24.7316 and Longitude is 93.7627.

- Naomi Haumuanching Zou

Staff Nurse, Safdarjung Hospital, Delhi

The author was awarded Certificate of Appreciation as the Best Nurses by the Rotary Club of Meghalaya State in the year 2005 - 2006.

I LOVE TO TELL THE STORY

At the very outset, I would like to bestow my immense pleasure to the souvenir board, SMGCCD for giving me this golden opportunity to share my witnessing of the Gospel in my professional line. It is my prayer that, whoever read this article got the blessings and courage to dare to witness our Lord Jesus Christ in their own professional lines. By the grace of God I have got the chance to be the witness for Christ in several ways as a nurse  right from my training period, If I am to write down every incidents of my experiences it would be too long, therefore, I am in the opinion that I should write down a few incidents which I thought could be an encouragement for others especially to my nursing friends or for any one in the medical line. 

Langol Peak: Tlaang Lhung Bung Garden

An exhaustive sightseeing at Tlaang Lhung Bung Garden of Langol village, Tengnoupal District, Manipur on June 9, 2018.

It is one of the best spot for family or group picnic. After climbing for almost 30 minutes from the foothill, visitors are surprised with the chilling wind and wet weather.

A historical site for the World War 2 where allied force put up their camps, Langol Peak or Tlaang Lhung Bung is now becoming one of the favourite tourist spot in Manipur. 

Surrounded by beautiful landscape, hillocks and breathtaking sceneries, Tlang Lhung Bung or Langol Peak garden lies in Langol Village of Machi Sub-Division in Tengnoupal District about 60 kms drive from the heart of Imphal city along the Indo-Myanmar road. 

Tlang Lhung Bung or Langol Peak garden, located in one of the oldest Maring Villages that is flooded with elements of historical importance, began its construction in the year 2013 and before the end of the year 2017, it was officially declared open for the public.

Contemporary Marriage Practice of the Zou tribes in brief

The Zou tribe - In India, the Zou are officially recognized as one of the thirty-three indigenous peoples within the state of Manipur, and are one of the Scheduled tribes. According to the 2001 Census, the Zou population in Manipur is around 20,000, less than 3% of the population. The community is concentrated in Churachandpur and Chandel districts of Manipur in North-East India.

The Zou Customs - The traditional customs, practices and other related issues of this small tribe has recently been explored systematically. Unfortunately, this tribe has escaped the attention of social scientists in general and sociologists in particular. The Zous like other tribal communities in the northeast India have maintained their age-old customary practices.

Types of Marriages - The Zou tribe generally follows what is called as "Patrilineal cross-cousin's marriage" which is their first choice known as Neila. It is generally observed that the traditional marriage system of the Zou tribes is regulated either by (i) Tong Mou (Arranged marriage), (ii) Neila (Cross cousin Marriage), and (ii) Elopement Marriage. THe above three types of marriage of course consist of arrange as well as love marriage. There are minute details to be explored with related to Zou customary marriage practices, I am not going to elaborate on all these minute details at the moment. This article aims at the contemporary practices without going in deep studies.

Awunching Gargen - The Great Escape

Awunching Garden at Pheidinga hillock as seen on January 21, 2018.

Awunching - The Great Escape at Pheidinga built over 36 hectares of land. It was dedicated to the public in 2003 as a tribute to the legacy passed on from a dear father to a daughter. Shri Khumuckcham Tolchou presented this venue as a wedding gift (Awun Pot) to his daughter Khumukcham Ningol Ningthemcha ongbi Brajamani Devi in the 1940s.

This is one of the best amusement park to unwind, to breathe fresh air and to spend holidays with family and kids.

At the bottom, there is a lake for boating like Shillong's Wards Lake which is a good place for photography. If you climb up a little steps from the lake, you will be welcome with a beautiful garden where families and groups of people relax and have funs with a number of huts and meadow. Again if you climb a little higher, children's amusement park with different sets of entertainment inftrastructure will be there. Once little children reach this place, parents said it is hard to pull them out again.
