The '''Doyang''' is the longest and largest [[river]] in the [[States and union territories of India|Indian state]] of [[Nagaland]]. With its origin from small streams near the Nagaland–Manipur border, it first flows to the form the River [[Dzüü]] and [[Sidzü]] which flows in a parallel direction in [[Kohima district|Kohima District]] and [[Phek district|Phek District]] to meet at the [[Zunheboto district|Zünheboto District]].
