Guwahati
- Kaziranga - Sibsagar and Guwahati - Manas are two travel
circuits promoted by the Union Government. Kamakhya Temple,
Umananda, Basistha Ashram, Gandhi Mandap, Sukleswar Temple,
Sankardev Kalashetra, Balaji Temple are some of the important
tourist places in and around Guwahati. The Kaziranga National
Park is famous for its unique one-horned rhinos. Other wild
- life sanctuaries that attract tourists are Manas and Orang
sanctuaries. Other places of tourist interest are Sibsagar,
Tezpur, Bhalukpung, Haflong, Jatinga Hills, Majuli island
(largest river inland), Chandubu lake and Sualkuchi 'Majuli',
the greatest river island in the world and also the seat of
a large number of Vaishnava Monasteries or 'Satras' is located
just across the mighty river Brahmputra. Thus, Assam is an
ideal meeting ground for d iverse races. Assam gave shelter
to streams of human waves carrying with them distinct cultures
and trends of civilization, as if the number of tiny streams
emerging from the hills are getting intermingled with the
mighty river Brahmaputra. The great and precious asset of
a state is its people who exploit all the natural resources
and potentials and forms wealth of a nation. Assam has now
produced a prospective plant or vision based on its culture,
aspiration and resources of this region. Our life is what
we make it by our thoughts and deeds. This is true not only
of individuals but also of states and regions so definitely
Assam will gain a ignominious miracle with organisational
skill, talent and indomitable spirit of its people.
