By the Mighty Bramhaputra

An unfathomable river courses wildly along this city as ancient hills look on verdantly from the sides. It is a remote town, well connected yet largely unexplored. That is Guwahati for you. Hailed as the Gateway to the Northeast, this city hardly features prominently on the itinerant's map despite it being undeniable as to how much it has on offer - cruises on the Brahmaputra, occult practices in age-old temples, undulating tea estates, meeting tribals upclose, and of course a glimpse of the lord of the Kaziranga, the one-horned rhino. Guwahati, alike its Northeastern cousins, has a pristine beauty, waiting for that beholder with an eye to appreciate?

When to Visit:
Guwahati enjoys moderate weather. Summer highs are only 33 C, but these months are dry and dusty. The rains last from June to September, when the Brahmaputra swells and runs over. So anytime from November to April is fine for a visit. But be prepared to battle some chilly winds if you venture there during the winter months.
Orientation & Getting Around:
Autorickshaws are available in plenty all over the city. Shared taxis are another economical option. Taxis are expensive but definitely more comfortable.
Dial in code(s):
City code:0361
