Day at your own leisure to continue exploring the beautiful temple complex.
You will be met by your driver and guide in a 4x4 jeep this morning and taken on the journey west in to the Chin Mountains.The journey is hard-going at times however extremely rewarding given the off-the-beaten track nature of the Chin State.
