Why October here
Da Parbatia’s ancient doorframe, Agnigarh’s legends and the road to Bhalukpong.
Tezpur is the north-bank heritage town: the 6th-century Da Parbatia doorframe, the Agnigarh hill of Usha-Aniruddha legend, and the Brahmaputra at its shoulders. Practically, it is the last full-service town before the Arunachal border at Bhalukpong, about 52km away.
Wildlife this month: Safari season reopens (confirm exact opening dates with the parks).
What to do
Da Parbatia
A Gupta-era carved doorframe, among the oldest sculptures in Assam.
Agnigarh
