    Manipur does not end in Imphal.There are many other districts and places outside of Imphal.Manipur/kangleipak is embodied of many diverse cultures..Every hill and the valley ; every tribe , every religion is a beauty from the holistic perspective.Manipur wouldn't be how it is without the diversity.
    And Imphal is but a part and the brain of the diversity.
    Imphal is the oval valley and the capital of Manipur surrounded by the nine hills.
    Only if it wasn't for this war , you could have experienced the diverse cultural festivals too. You could have experienced the true beauty of Kangleipak for the beauty of Manipur lies in its diversity in culture.
    Due to the war , many of the beauties of imphal are included in the red zone.
    But if you are exploring Imphal , let me list down SOME of the hotspots , I as manipuri would want to suggest as Must Visit
    LOKTAK LAKE :- Known as the "only floating freshwater lake in the world" and the largest freshwater lake of NorthEast India.
    MAIBAM LOKPA CHING(Red Hill) :- You will find memorials of JAPANESE martyrs who came to Manipur during the World War II.
    CHEIRAO CHING :- The captivating hill from which you could appreciate the beauty of the valley as a whole in aerial perspective. Would recommend visiting it during the dawn hours/twilight hours/nighttime rather than the daytime.
    LANGTHABAL KONUNG :- A beautiful historical site which is also a must visit.
    Manipur is not what it used to be right now. But I hope , as dull it is , our state right now , you will enjoy you stay.
    Have nice stay🙇‍♀🙏.

    feeling sad for the kings who sacrificed their lifes on protecting this motherland of ours yet this meitei destroyed the full life of them as well as subordinated tribes , much hatred to be discussed firstly they critised the kuki tribe and strated the war without knwing the price and now imflaming communal war between them and bishnupriya manipuries. i dont know whats inside meiteis head always trynna fighht with the sub ordinate tribes claiming whole manipur as theirs. and after burning fire between them meiteis will pretend innocent in front of media. SUCH AN ATTENTION SEEKERS

    I'll recommend "Loktak Lake" to find more beautiful sites, traditional things about Manipur.
    There is the only floating national park in the world, the Keibul Lamjao National Park
