Churachapur is a small town, a little an hour away from Imphal. And just an half an hour away is Ngaloi Water Falls. The beautiful town that you come across while you drive towards this little hideaway, is worthwhile. The weather in Manipur is always good. Summer lasts for a few days with nights being a bit chilly, so you don't really need a ceiling fan either. The village is sort after by tourists and during the holidays and festivals, the locals often come here to relax. You can find a lot of young crowd coming in. Though not a very crowded place despite of that. You can get your family and friends and enjoy some time away from smartphones. Watching the falls is one of the best thing you could do. The sound of water hushing away all that crowds your mind.
The cafe that's just a stone throw away from the falls, will cater beer, maggie, tea and chips for those who like to just walk in. Its a pretty little hut with pink curtains. The simplicity of this place is unimaginable.
The Ngaloi village was earlier the main town of churachanpur district. But due to the Kuki- Pathai riots, the entire village was burnt and people had to find another place to live. The village still exists and has come up very well in a few years. Its greener in this part of the town and water is no problem here at all as compared to other parts of Manipur.
So if you are visiting Imphal, do make a trip here. It's very different from all those tourist-y places that you have ever been.
