The recently unearthed large Burial-ground with about 1,000 graves of allied soldiers believed to be mostly of Chinese, Kachins, Indian, Britishers and Americans soldiers who died in Second World War is located at Ledo Road in the Jairampur-Nampong road, Changlang district, Arunachal Pradesh, India. The hidden cemetery covered with thick jungles midst of the bank of Namchik River and on the Stilwell Road ( Ledo Road ), 6 km from Jairampur town, 39 km from Ledo and 24 Km before reaching Pangsau Pass ( Hell Pass ), India – Burma (Myanmar) border. The Army has cleared the area and found about 1,000 graves within an area of about three acre. The boundary was enclosed by concrete posts with entrance on three sides. The graves are arranged in five Lines and several rows. A large grave, possibly a mass burial, is in the centre. The bricks were from Ledo AR&T Co’s brick fields, and others marked as B&C-119 and IR.N!C9 were being used.

The name of the park itself ‘Namdapha’ is a combination of two Singpho words that mean ‘Forest Keeping’ indicating that conservation of forests is the primary objective of the tribals as well as the locals in the area.

Stilwell Road

Also known as Ledo Road, this is a historic road as it was connected by the Americans during World War II to connect Ledo to Changlang. The route of the entire road is quite circuitous and covers a challenging path, to say the least.

Lake of No Return

Visible from the Pangsau Pass, 12km from Nampong, the lake has its peculiar name due to many who perished here. This spot was used for soft landing for fighter planes during the war in times of emergencies after being hit by enemies. Many soldiers lost their lives in the process.
