Shot from a moving vehicle, it shows the city's unique landscape, where homes, shops, and other buildings are built along steep hillsides. The winding roads pass through closely packed neighborhoods that are a familiar sight across the city. With fewer people and vehicles on the streets, the video captures a quieter side of Aizawl than what is usually seen on a normal day. As the journey continues, different parts of the city come into view, highlighting the way urban life has adapted to the surrounding mountains. It is a simple glimpse of everyday Aizawl during an extraordinary time.
