Charaideo in February

The Ahom kings’ burial mounds.

Quick answer. Late winter, dry season continues. One of the easiest months to move around the state. For Charaideo specifically, February is a comfortable month with the usual hill-state caveats.

Why February here

Mound tombs of the Ahom royals, listed by UNESCO, on the ridge where the dynasty began.

Charaideo was the first Ahom capital and remained the dynasty’s sacred burial ground: the maidams, vaulted mound tombs of kings and queens, line the ridge. The complex was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2023.

Wildlife this month: Wildlife season continues in all parks.

What to do

The maidams

Brick-vaulted burial chambers under earthen mounds.
