    If you want to keep the drive short, start at Kangla Fort and head straight to the State Museum the two are about 30 km apart and it usually takes around 15 to 20 minutes by car. That way you get the big picture of Manipur’s royal past before diving into the artifacts. If you prefer a more leisurely pace, you could reverse the order and use the extra time to stop at a local tea stall along the way. After visiting the museum, the drive to Loktak Lake is a bit longer, roughly 45 km, which usually takes about an hour. If you’re staying in Imphal, the PHOU OI BEE HOTEL is just half a kilometre from the city centre, so you’ll have easy access to the roads heading out.
