About Saitual
A ridge town on the road east from Aizawl, made a district headquarters in 2019, and the turn-off for Tamdil. It is the last proper town before the long descent to the Tuivawl and the climb to Khawzawl and Champhai, so people stop here for lunch. The district reaches north to Ngopa and the Manipur border, country with almost no visitors.
What to see and do
- Turn-off for Tamdil, 7 km
- Lunch halt on the Champhai road
- District headquarters since 2019
- Ngopa and the Manipur border to the north
Part of Patkai, Naga and Mizo Hills.
