Assam, with its sprawling tea gardens and unending stretches of paddy fields interspersed with groves of coconut, areca nuts, and banana trees, is one of the biggest States in the North East of India and the most accessible. It is a land that could mesmerize you with its mythology and magic; its flora and fauna and the sheer variety in its population.
It has one of the largest national parks in the country and the only home to Indian Rhinoceros. Across the state you will find large tea gardens that grow some of the most sought after tea in the world.
