Must-include Places in North-east India for You to Visit

• Guwahati, Assam

The largest city in the regions should definitely be your first stop. Guwahati is the capital of Assam and offers a lot of memorable sights to witness for anyone who visits. In essence, a visit to Guwahati alone will give you a fairly good idea about the culture of Assam as a whole. The mishmash of the different cultures of the state is definitely something worth remembering. The places in Guwahati that you need to make sure that you see are the Kamakhya Temple, Assam State Zoo, Accoland and the Regional Science Centre.

• Pelling, Sikkim

Another must-see spot that should be part of North-east holiday packages is Pelling in Sikkim. Breathtaking panoramic views of some of the largest mountain peaks in the form of Kanchenjunga, Frey, Rathong and many more are on offer in this town. You can take a stroll of the town and immerse yourself in the culture. The delectable Tibetan and Nepalese cuisines are something that you definitely should not miss while you are in Pelling. One of the things that you simply cannot miss while you are in this town is the Singshore Suspension Bridge, which is the second highest suspension bridge in Asia.

• Shillong, Meghalaya

As far as beautiful places go, Shillong can compete with the best. Given the epithet of being the ‘Scotland of the East’, you can well understand the awe that awaits you in the Meghalayan capital city. One of the things that you should try not to miss while you are in Shillong is the music scene, as it is known to be among the best that our country has to offer. You should not forget to boat on the Wards Lake, and ideally also ensure that you have seen the Shillong Peak, Lady Hydari Park, Laitlum Canyons.

• Agartala, Tripura

The capital city of Tripura might not offer as much natural beauty as the other three places, but it is worth a visit nonetheless. There will be palaces, temples and the famed Tripura Government Museum for you to see. Do not forget to visit the Tripura Sundari Temple. Also, when you are there you should also make sure to see the Sepahijala Wildlife Sanctuary and the Rose Valley Amusement Park.
