The festival both exposes the culture and tradition of tribal peoples, and reinforces Nagaland s identity as a unique state in India s federal union. Experts have commented that A lot of older folk in the villages travel to Kohima to attend this festival and meet people from other villages from Nagaland because they haven t met before, hence leading to cultural assimilation.Traditional arts are also featured, with paintings, wood carvings and sculptures by modern Naga artists on display. Naga troupes sing folk songs, perform traditional dances and play indigenous games and sports. In the evenings a programme of music concerts, catering for all tastes, ensures that the festive spirit continues through the night. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 12211701
