 The Monoliths Site: It is a cluster of the famous and impressive Nartiang megaliths or monoliths covering a wide complex of nearly 100 meters in diameter. The tallest and biggest of the monoliths is about 8 meters in height, 2 meters in breadth and 0.46 meters in thickness. Bordering in the north is the Nartiang weekly bazaar. The site is one of the most significant symbolic wonders of the megalithic or monolithic culture in the country as a whole and had been also declared as a Monument of National Importance. The Monument is said to be associated with the establishment of Nartiang as the second hills capital as well as the principal market kingdom.
