Untouched by civilisation and splendiferous in its beauty, this valley otherwise called the valley of celestial charm has an tempting appeal to all who gaze it.
Winters bring with it sub-zero temperatures and frozen streams. In summers wild herbs sprout along the river banks. And from June to September the entire valley is a carpet of flowers. In summer, wild herbs and shrubs sprout along the stream banks. Lilies in white and pink, euphorbias, aconitums and hundreds of other botanical species in varied colours adorn the valley in monsoon.
Though Dzukou is known for its bio-diversity, the predominant plant is the tough bamboo brush because of which it looks like a justly mown lawn from far away. Rhododendrons of different colours beatify the hills abounding the valley.

One traveller describes the places as follows:
To start a journey to the undefinable valley of beauty so called Dzükou Valley , first, one must come to India -to-Nagaland-to Kohima the capital city of Nagaland a place of friendly people. This is the right place to start a journey to explore the land that will leave an immense impact in your memory for a lifetime. For a little while one can go by vehicle,but after a while the real thrills of journey will begin, the up hill path in the midst of wild jungle where you’ll get a chance to explore the beauty of the jungle,the mountain scapes,the small village down below,the attrcting folk songs made by the farmers working on their field and even a little glimpse of the valley, a place so far and secluded from the noisy and busy life of little town, a little walk and rest a little walk and rest an what next??? everyone will start thinking how excellent and creative the creator is.
