Pilgrimage Place in Imphal
Submit By: Gaurav
Moirang is located about 45 kms away from Imphal on Tiddim Road. The ancient temple of the pre-Hindu deity, Lord Thangjing stands there. In the month of May, the people celebrate the festival of Moirang Lai Haraoba. In this festival, men and women in bright traditional costumes sing and dance in honour of the Lord. It was from the village of Moirang that the graceful, Khamba Thoibi dance originated. It was also at Moirang that flag of the Indian National Army was first hoisted on Indian soil on April 14, 1944. There is an INA Museum here that exhibits letters, photographs, badges of ranks and other articles associated with INA. A bronze statue of Netaji in uniform stands proud in the lawn.
