Uzanbazar Homestay-Guwahati
Guwahati
Guwahati in Assam is the second-largest metropolitan city in eastern India after Kolkata and is the gateway to the seven other northeastern states. The majestic Brahmaputra river is a focal point of the town while the lush hills of the Shillong Plateau provide a verdant backdrop for the suburbs. Legends says, the demon king Narkasura built this ancient city. Another reason for Guwahati’s charm is its being the ancient ‘Kamrup’, the birthplace of Kamdeva, the God of Love. The most notable festival here is the Bohag Bihu that marks the beginning of the Assamese New Year and falls sometime in mid-April. The Durga Puja, celebrated in the month of October, is another major festival. In the months of Jun-Jul, there is the famous Ambubashi Mela at Kamakhya temple.
