Chin Hills

In the Chin Hills, steep wooded ridges descend towards the Manipur River. The river winds through the uplands before turning east to meet the Myittha in the Kale valley. West of the river country lies Tashon, an old Chin village; farther west is the small lake of Rih, surrounded by hills. The mountain settlements belong to a landscape quite different from the broad Chindwin plain beyond the eastern ranges.
