The turbulent Siang River races across the district heading for the plains where it is met by the Dihing and Lohit rivers after which the rivers roar into Assam as the mighty Brahmaputra.
The region is the home of the Adi tribe who are remembered for their artistic and colourful Ponung dance. Pasighat is also an ideal destination for adventure sports activities. The Daying Ering Wildlife Sanctuary is 13 km away and is worth visiting. The archaeological site of Malinithan is linked to the legend of Lord Krishna and his wife Rukmini. The dismembered head of Sati is said to have fallen at Akashiganga according to ancient Hindu myths. This is a sacred place for Vaishnavites.
