Kakching (Meitei pronunciation:/kək.ciŋ/) is a town in the southeastern part of the Indian state of Manipur.

In 2018, Kakching was declared as the cleanest city in North East India by the Swachh Bharat Mission of the Indian government.

[citation needed] Traditionally, the main occupation of the people of Kakching has been the farming of crops, but greater opportunities have arisen in the last five years[when?

The availability of proper irrigation and canal facilities has allowed farmers to practice double cropping.

In recent years significant improvement has been seen in horticultural products including apples, citrus fruits, and strawberries.

Kakching is an important town for higher studies in Indian classical music under the Bhatkhande Hindustani Sangeet Mahavidyalaya, the only institution in Eastern India where Indian classical music is taught up to the highest levels (Nipun), attracting hundreds of students every year from Manipur.

Kakching participates in many cultural fields reflecting the heritage of the Meitei people, including storytelling and dance (Nat Sankirtan and Meitei Pung Cholom), as well as the martial arts Thang-Ta, Satjal, Mukna, and the sport of Kangjei.

This festival is in part a recollection of the creation stories played by the deities with the first origin of this universe and evolution of plants and animals through the will of Atiya Shidaba.

Today the site is occupied mostly by the Assam Rifles and partially converted into paddy fields by local farmers.

Indian national hero, Subhas Chandra Bose, took his last flight from the aerodrome after the war before his controversial death.

The site includes different religious destinations including the "Ibudhou Pakhangba Laishang" (also termed as "Ibudhou Pakhangba Laisang"), the shrine of goddess Haoreima Sampubi, a shrine of Shiva, a rose garden, parks and restaurants.

It has a serpentine dragon statue of God Pakhangba being installed inside the temple hall.

The hospital provides medical services to villages in Chandel, Thoubal and some parts of Churachandpur district.

It was established on 1 January 2015 in a meeting convened at the residence of Y. Rajendro Singh, Councilor of Kakching Municipal Council Ward No.
