About Kohima

Kohima, the capital of Nagaland, boasts a population of nearly 100,000, ranking as the state’s second-largest city. It serves both as a district and a municipality, covering an area of 20 sq km. Situated at an average elevation of 1,261 meters on the Japfü foothills within the Barail Range’s southern region, Kohima has a rich history.

Kohima gained global recognition for hosting a pivotal and brutal World War II battle, often called the “Stalingrad of the East.” In 2013, it was honored as Britain’s Greatest Battle by the British National Army Museum.

In the medieval era, Tsiera, known as the stone defender, was the village’s legendary founder. During the colonial period, the East India Company initiated its expansion into Kohima in the 1840s, which continued under British Indian Army control after the Indian Rebellion of 1857. In 1879, Kohima became the administrative center of the Naga Hills District, with Guybon Henry Damant appointed as Political Officer.
