Introduction
Pulie Badze Wildlife Sanctuary, near Kohima, protects a stretch of forest known for its rhododendron and orchid diversity alongside a range of regional wildlife, offering a relatively accessible nature destination for visitors based in the capital. The sanctuary's proximity to Kohima makes it a convenient half-day trip for those wanting to combine a nature walk with the city's more urban and cultural attractions.
Walking trails through the sanctuary showcase the area's plant biodiversity, particularly during the rhododendron flowering season, and Pulie Badze's manageable scale makes it accessible even for visitors without extensive time for longer treks further into Nagaland's more remote wilderness areas.
History
Established to protect forest habitat close to Kohima, the sanctuary reflects broader efforts to conserve accessible green space and biodiversity within reach of Nagaland's rapidly growing capital city.
