In Reiek village people make sure they never run out of water...

The rest of India could use a lesson or two from the rain water harvesting techniques of the Mizos!

Reiek is one of the towns in Reiek Tehsil in Mamit District, Mizoram about 12 km far from its capital City Aizawl. This is one destination that one should not give amiss where you can completely view Aizawl. The mountain itself, though appearing to be of gentle slopes on its eastern sides has spectacular rocky cliffs notched with caves and caverns on the northern and western sides. The mountain road takes one through the lush green hills, crosses the Tlawng River as it gushes through a narrow rocky gorge, and then climbs up the hills winding up gradually making for a comfortable drive, during which one comes across a few cascades which are a traveler's delight.
