Assam:

Located in the northeastern part of India, Assam is known for its picturesque landscapes,
rich biodiversity, and tea plantations. Assamese is the official language of the state,
spoken by the majority of the population. The capital city of Assam is Dispur, although
Guwahati serves as the largest city and commercial hub of the state.

Assam's culture is a vibrant mix of indigenous traditions, music, dance, and festivals such
as Bihu and Durga Puja. The cuisine of Assam is characterized by its use of rice, fish, and
bamboo shoots, with dishes like masor tenga and xaak bhaji being popular among the
locals.

The state is home to several natural and cultural attractions, including the Kaziranga
National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its population of one-horned
rhinoceroses. The scenic hill station of Haflong, the ancient Kamakhya Temple, and the
Majuli Island, the largest river island in the world, are other notable destinations in
Assam.
