Jump to:

Prior to 1947 Assam incorporated all north east India, but the declaration of independence heralded a new beginning and this large region was broken up into separate states.

The so called 'seven sisters' were off limits to foreign travel for many years and restrictions are still in place for a number of areas, but Assam is open for travelers.

Cruise down the Brahmaputra River

Sukapha, BrahmaputraThe state is traversed by the mighty Brahmaputra River which wends its way across the fertile plains and brings life and occasional disaster to the villages and towns along its banks. The river itself is also a fantastic way to see this remote region and seasonal cruises journey to the national parks at Manas and Kaziranga.
