Often neglected in discussions of India, the Seven States of North - East India, (otherwise known as the Seven Sisters) offers a unique experience to the traveller. The mainly tribal people of the North-East have long been neglected politically and economically by the Indian Central Government, but have survived with strong feelings of independence. The area offers diversity in culture, language, art, climate and environment, so much so that one is often amazed at the difference between regions just a few kilometres apart.

Most of the North East has now been made accessible to travellers, however it is still with a certain degree of difficulty making it a low volume tourist destination.  This makes it an ideal spot for those who want to get away from all the touristy spots.
