Pradesh or Upper Assam, Tezpur is a charming town with some beautifully kept parks, attractive lakes and enchanting 
views of the mighty Brahmaputra River as it laps the town’s edge. Overnight at hotel.

Day 04: Tezpur – Dirang (200 kms / approx. 7 hours)

a lone battle against the invading Chinese during the 1962 war. His spirit is still believed to protect the place). Tawang 
is situated at an altitude of 3500m. The natural beauty and solitude of Gudpi and Chong-Chugmi ranges, Tawang chu

After breakfast drive from Kaziranga to Guwahati. The gateway to the northeast and the largest and most cosmopolitan 
city in the region, Guwahati serves as the starting block for most Northeast itineraries. It’s a somewhat featureless city –
a prosaic heap of glass and concrete for the most part – but there are a scattering of interesting temples to explore. Walk 
its back alleys and old quarters, however, and you will be able to salvage a generous amount of local flavour that lingers 
amid its suburban sprawl of ponds, palm trees, small single-storey traditional houses and old colonial-era mansions. 
Overnight at hotel.

Day 11: Guwahati
After breakfast visit Kamakhya temple - The temple is dedicated to goddess Kamakhya an incarnation of Sati. It is on 
Nilachal hill, says the Shiva Purana, that the yoni or creative organ of Sati fell when Vishnu, in a bid to save the world 
from the Shiva’s tandava nrittya or dance of destruction, cut her dead body into 51 pieces with his suddarshan chakra. 
Also visit Navagraha temple, Umananda temple, Balaji Temple, state Zoo. Overnight in Guwahati.
