   Located in Nagaland's lush green hills, Longwa seems an ordinary little village at first sight. However, it actually serves as a popular destination among adventurers due to its position as an opium paradise and its past headhunting culture. But probably the biggest popularity booster here is the fact that the Indian-Burmese border runs right through it. Yet, in a future, this geographic uniqueness could bring big problems to the village.
