Visitors guide
Visitors can expect a rural hillside setting at Kijulo, Phesama with traditionally built Naga-style huts and communal spaces constructed from bamboo, wood and thatch. The property functions as both a homestay and learning centre where guests can stay overnight, enjoy Naga cuisine, participate in workshops on crafts, weaving and indigenous practices, and interact with local hosts. The surroundings are quiet and forested with views of the Kohima hills, offering a cultural immersion rather than a conventional hotel experience.
