Assam Vacation Tour
|
|
Situated between
90-96 degree East Longitute and 24-28 degree North Latitude,
Assam is bordered in the North and East by the Kingdom of
Bhutan and Arunachal Pradesh. Along the south lies Nagaland,
Manipur and Mizoram. Meghalaya lies to her South-West, Bengal
and Bangladesh to her West.
Assam the rich, green land of rolling plains and dense forests
is the gateway to the north eastern part of India. The mighty
Brahmaputra river that has its origins in Tibet charts its
majestic course through this state. This mystic land of
eternal blue hills and beautiful rivers is renowned for its
tea, rich flora and fauna, the world famous one horned
rhinoceros and other rare species of wildlife on the verge of
extinction. Barring Africa, there is perhaps no part of the
world where such a variety of wildlife exists.
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. The rhino emerges as if from prehistory and treads the
Kaziranga National park. 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.
