Welcome

The Kohima Museum commemorates the Burma Campaign of World War 2, with particular focus on the Battle of Kohima, which took place in 1944 in North East India, close to its border with Burma. It marked the limit of the Japanese invasion of India. The Japanese “March On Delhi” was halted at Kohima!
