Only hill station in Assam — Jatinga, the village where birds mysteriously crash-land at night during monsoon
Why Special
Assam's sole hill station hiding one of India's strangest wildlife mysteries: every monsoon, birds crash-land in Jatinga village at night, drawn by lights and fog. Scientists still debate why. The surrounding Dima Hasao hills offer waterfalls, Haflong Lake, and zero crowds.
