Here is our little paean to our favourite Indian state! A place where no one locks their homes, oranges are sold in the market without a price and you pay whatever you feel the farmer deserves to get for them. Indeed, a place where the greed of modern India has not caught up (except for a rare few of the political types in power, and those who sold off the dams and emptied the river valleys of their trees, to make them!)

Arunachal Pradesh is a state of India, located in the far northeast. It borders the states of Assam and Nagaland to the south, and shares international borders with Burma in the east, Bhutan in the west, and Tibet (now occupied by the People's Republic of China) in the north. The majority of the territory is claimed by the People's Republic of China as part of South Tibet. The northern border of Arunachal Pradesh reflects the McMahon Line, a controversial 1914 treaty between the United Kingdom and a Tibetan government, which was never accepted by the Chinese government, and not enforced by the Indian government until 1950. Itanagar is the capital of the state.

Arunachal Pradesh means "land of the dawn lit mountains" in Sanskrit. It is also known as "land of the rising sun". Nestled in India's distant northeast lies this little known state. Though it lies within the political boundaries of modern India, it is culturally distinct from much of the rest of the country. Tribal living and diverse faiths combined with unique cultural practices make Arunachal a fascinating frontier for modern exploration.
