Assam: My Adventure Through Wildlife, Temples, and Weaving Wonders

Hey everyone! Just got back from an incredible trip to Assam, and let me tell you, it was an absolute blast! This northeastern state of India completely surprised me with its diverse range of experiences. From spotting rhinos in the wild to getting blessed at ancient temples and learning about the art of silk weaving, Assam had something for everyone.

Rhinoceros Encounters in Kaziranga National Park

The crown jewel of my trip was definitely Kaziranga National Park. As a wildlife enthusiast, seeing a one-horned rhino in its natural habitat was a dream come true. My heart pounded with excitement as our jeep rumbled through the tall grasslands, finally spotting a majestic rhino grazing peacefully. The park was teeming with life – elephants emerged from the foliage, while playful deer frolicked in the distance. A jeep safari wasn't the only option – I even tried an elephant ride, which offered a unique perspective of the park's diverse ecosystem.

Spiritual Bliss at the Kamakhya Temple

Assam's rich culture is deeply rooted in spirituality, and a visit to the Kamakhya Temple in Guwahati was a truly humbling experience. Dedicated to the goddess Kamakhya, this ancient temple is one of the most revered Shakti Peethas in Hinduism. The vibrant atmosphere, filled with chanting devotees and the aroma of incense, transported me to another world. Witnessing the daily rituals and soaking in the temple's energy was a deeply moving experience.

A Step Back in Time: Sibsagar and Hajo

History buffs, like myself, will be blown away by Assam's fascinating past. The Sibsagar Sivadol, a massive Shiva temple built by the Ahom dynasty, left me speechless with its intricate stonework. Exploring the Talatal Ghar, an underground palace, offered a glimpse into the architectural ingenuity of this bygone era. Hajo, an ancient pilgrimage town, added another layer to the historical tapestry. The unique architecture of the Hayagriva Madhava Temple and the serenity of the Powa Mecca, a revered Muslim pilgrimage site, showcased the beautiful blend of religions in Assam.

Majuli: The Enchanting River Island

One of the most unexpected highlights of my trip was Majuli, the world's largest river island. Cycling through the lush green landscapes was a refreshing change of pace, and the vibrant Satra monasteries offered a window into Assamese culture. I was captivated by the traditional way of life on the island, where people live in harmony with nature.

Cruising Down the Mighty Brahmaputra

A trip to Assam wouldn't be complete without experiencing the mighty Brahmaputra River. Taking a river cruise was a relaxing way to soak in the beauty of the surrounding landscapes. Spotting playful dolphins breaking the surface of the water and watching the vibrant life along the riverbanks was pure bliss. For nature lovers, the Manas Biosphere Reserve offers a paradise for trekking and birdwatching, with its diverse ecosystems waiting to be explored.

A Celebration of Assamese Culture

My Assam adventure wouldn't have been complete without immersing myself in the local culture. The Bihu festival, a joyous celebration of harvest, was a whirlwind of energy. Energetic dance performances and the soulful melodies of Bihu songs filled the air, leaving me with a smile plastered on my face. Witnessing the art of Assamese silk weaving was another captivating experience. The skilled artisans work their magic, creating beautiful fabrics with intricate designs that are a true testament to their talent.

A Culinary Adventure Awaits

Assamese cuisine is a hidden gem, waiting to be discovered. From the tangy and flavorful Masor Tenga, a fish curry, to the comforting Khar, a dish made with lentils and vegetables, every bite was a burst of unique flavors. One of my favorite experiences was trying Jolpan, a traditional Assamese thali featuring an array of delectable dishes, each representing a different taste and texture.

Assam has truly captured my heart. From the thrill of spotting wildlife to the serenity of ancient temples and the beauty of traditional crafts, this incredible state has something to offer everyone. So, if you're looking for an adventure that's off the beaten path, Assam is definitely worth adding to your travel bucket list!

🕉️🚩🛕🔱🇮🇳⠀ ⠀ dol means temple in Assamese.⠀ ⠀ Siva dol (meaning the temple of  Shiva) is a group of structures comprising three Hindu temples of Sivadol, Vishnudol (meaning temple of  Vishnu) and Devidol (means temple of the Goddess Devi Durga) shrines, and a museum. These are located on the banks of the Sivasagar ("the ocean of the god Shiva") tank, also known as the Borpukhuri tank, in the heart of Sivasagar, in the Indian state of Assam.⠀ ⠀ The tank was constructed between 1731 and 1738 and the temples were built in 1734 by Bar Raja Ambika, queen of Ahom king Swargadeo Siba Singha (1714–1744).⠀ ⠀ Sivadol, built in the Shikhara architecture (more specifically Ahom temple architecture), has a central tower which is said to be the tallest Shiva temple tower in India at a height of 104 feet and the perimeter is 195 feet at the base. It is crowned with an 8-foot high golden-dome.⠀ The temple is built with stone and bricks. Inside the Garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum), the Shiva Linga (aniconic symbol of Shiva) is deified, which is in a reverse setting. The Shikhara or Vimana (temple tower), which rises above the sanctum sanctorum, has a four-tiered, 8 feet (2.4 m) mastaka and is crowned by a kalasha made of gold. The tower itself is built with parallel ridges and furrows. The lower part of the tower is flanked by four smaller identical towers, which are known as the angashikaras. The garbagriha, where the main deity is deified in the form of a reversed Shiva linga, is interconnected with an antarala, a small antechamber, which has a roof known as do-chala, which is akin to a typical hut built in Assam. The antarala is also connected to one of the mandapas (outdoor halls). The exterior walls of the temple are embellished with sculptures and floral designs set in Bas-relief.⠀ ⠀ Rest in comments 👇⠀ ⠀ #MyIndia #Assam #reclaimtemples #templegram #templephotography #sanatandharma #hinduculture #templehopping #templemade #templerun #hindutemples #templesofindia #Shivadol #sibsagar #Sivasagar #incredibleindia #swipeleft #theinstayatri ⠀ (at Sivadol) https://www.instagram.com/p/CL7MZ2NrkA0/?igshid=1834mdrk3q9jp
