Assam is the gateway to the Rhinoceros, Assam

north-East located between 900-960 East longitude and 24-38 North Latitude, Assam is dominated by the mighty Brahmaputra river that has its origins in Tibet. Indeed, a large part of the state is located in he narrow valley that the rivers has created over the ages. The states population included a startling mix of Dravisians and Aryans and Tibeto-Burmans.

Assam has drawn people from diverse cultures and races in different points of time. They are the colorful people, weaving fairy tales in dresses, singing and dancing in clouds and sunshine of pastoral life, creating art out of life adding color to itself.

Exotic denizens of the sylvan world add to the mystery and charm of this weird land. Frolick of apes, graceful elephants, fluttering of wings & singing of birds, migratory birds flying into the hills, the majestic tiger enforcing his authority all invite you to carry back home a little what the heaven is made of.

And who can forget lush green Tea gardens which beckon you to have a cup of fresh tea and enjoy the enthralling music of life.
