Photos from a bike ride to Doyang Dam, Wokha, Nagaland

Doyang is about 2 hours drive from Wokha Town, Nagaland along the Wokha-Bhandari Road. Though the road condition is not so good, bike ride is still enjoyable.

Bamboo Watch Towers-cum-Resting Sheds
From the Doyang Dam, if we go along the Sungro Village road, there are these bamboo structures or watch towers, which are I guess were built to watch the Amur Falcons.

The areas surrounding the Doyang Dam in Wokha district is one of the primary roosting site of the famous migratory birds, Amur Falcons. Nagaland has been recognized as the Amur Falcon Capital of the World. Starting from October every year, these areas witness a huge flock of Amur Falcons.
