Dimapur Airport
Dimapur Airport, coded DMU, serves Dimapur, the largest city in the northeastern Indian state of Nagaland and a key commercial center for the region. Located in the Brahmaputra valley lowlands rather than Nagaland's mountainous interior, Dimapur functions as the primary transport gateway to the state, given the difficult terrain elsewhere. DMU connects to major Indian cities including Kolkata and Guwahati, supporting trade, government administration, and the growing tourism interest in Naga tribal culture and the Hornbill Festival held in the state capital Kohima. As one of the few airports serving Nagaland, DMU carries outsized importance for a state where road travel through hilly terrain can be slow and challenging.
