THE STORY
Sivasagar: a closer look
Sivasagar preserves monuments associated with the Ahom kingdom, including temple, tank and palace settings. These sites provide a historical counterpoint to Assam’s better-known tea and wildlife landscapes. A guided route helps connect separate monuments into one regional story.
Weaving, river life, tea culture and Assamese food make rewarding additions to sightseeing. Guwahati is a practical urban starting point, but the character of a journey changes as you move into the countryside.
