    1. Thanks for the compliment and extremely sorry for the delay in replying. Assam, like I said, is a hidden beauty of India and there is not much coverage on the tourism prospects of this naturally beautiful State. I am sure you would be mesmerised by its beauty too. Please be sure to visit Assam on your India tour plan.
