This pocket of pristine beauty named Balpakram National Park is also close to the international boundary of Bangladesh.&lt;br /&gt;                     &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/td&gt;                   &lt;/tr&gt;                   &lt;tr class="TextMainJG"&gt;                     &lt;td&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;                   &lt;/tr&gt;                   &lt;tr class="TextMainJG"&gt;                     &lt;td&gt;&lt;p&gt;If &lt;strong&gt;“Balpakram”&lt;/strong&gt; is translated to English, it means &lt;strong&gt;“The land of Eternal Wind”&lt;/strong&gt;. Originally only the plateau was known as Balpakram and the Garo considered this place to be sacred. Literally, Balpakram means a place of perpetual wind and according to Garo mythology; it is also above of the Dead spirits. According to legends this was the place where the spirit of the dead first rested with the spirit of a sacrificed bull, before going on to complete their journey to the heavens. There are many legends attached to stones, ponds and mountains in this plateau, which, combined with the barrenness and solitude, creates a space of tranquility. The Balpakram National Park is shrouded in mystery, soaked with charms, breathtaking scenery, amazing variety of wildlife, magnificent and charming tribal lore, legends, beliefs and sentiments. Simply put, it is a Travellers Paradise.&lt;/p&gt;                       &lt;p&gt; Balpakram has its own importance for the Garos and Hindus alike. Garos believe that when a person has discarded his earthly vestures the spirit journeys to the Land of Balpakram where it dwells temporarily until its final journey. It is also believed by Hindus that Hanuman the Monkey God while looking for the herb Sanjeevani to cure Laxman injured in the battle with Ravana found it in Balpakram and took the top of the hill from Balpakram leaving a plateau or flat land in its place, what is today known to the Garos as Chutmang Peak, the highest point in South Garo Hills.&lt;/p&gt;                       &lt;p&gt; This park with its vast elevational variation supports a profile of varied types of floral and faunal compositions. There are perhaps very few places in the whole world where such a unique concentration of immense numbers of flora and fauna occur in such a small area. Elephants and Tigers are the flagship of the park. Hullock Gibbons, the only ape species found in India can be seen here. Other animals found in the park are Deer, Great Indian Hornbill, Pheasant, Wildcats, Wildcows, Wild buffalo, Leopards etc. Among the plants very rare species like Pitcher Plants (Nepenthes Khasiana), Orchids and Drosera flourish abundantly which often attracts wildlife biologists, researchers, nature-lovers and conservationists.

It is not only the homeland of the Great Indian One Horned Rhinoceros, but also provides shelter to a variety of wild lives.&lt;/p&gt;                       &lt;/td&gt;                   &lt;/tr&gt;                   &lt;tr class="TextMainJG"&gt;                     &lt;td&gt; &lt;/td&gt;                   &lt;/tr&gt;                   &lt;tr class="TextMainJG"&gt;                     &lt;td&gt;&lt;p&gt; Located on the banks of the mighty Brahmaputra River in the far North East of India, Assam, Kaziranga National Park covers an area of approximately 430-sq-kms with its swamps and tall thickets of elephant grass making it the ideal habitat for the Indian One-Horned Rhino. Due to limitless poaching of this prehistoric survivor, the Kaziranga National Park was declared a wildlife sanctuary in 1940. &lt;/p&gt;                       &lt;p class="style18"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Best Time to Visit Kaziranga National Park&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;                       &lt;p&gt;Kaziranga's visiting season is from mid-November to early April months. During the monsoons, the Brahmaputra River bursts its banks, flooding the low-lying grasslands and causing animals to migrate from one area to another within the Kaziranga National Park.&lt;br /&gt;                   &lt;br /&gt;A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step; we found immense pleasure to introduce our newly built COTTAGE HRISHIKESH at Bogorijuri, Kaziranga National Park, which is perfect for your honeymoon, travel or weekend getaways from the rat race!&lt;br /&gt;                    &lt;/p&gt;                       &lt;/td&gt;                   &lt;/tr&gt;                   &lt;tr class="TextMainJG"&gt;                     &lt;td&gt; &lt;/td&gt;                   &lt;/tr&gt;                   &lt;tr class="TextMainJG"&gt;                     &lt;td&gt;&lt;p class="TextMainUnJG"&gt;&lt;span class="orangeHead"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Our Vision:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                 &lt;br /&gt;Our primary vision is to promote eco-friendly and responsible tourism in North Eastern Region as well as maximize the employment opportunity for the local community.

One can visit it by hiring a taxi from Golaghat town or by public buses plying on the Golaghat Dimapur route. During winter season lucky visitors may get to see herds of wild elephants grazing by the side of the highway as NH 39 passes through the thickest portion of Nambor Forest.&lt;/p&gt;                       &lt;p class="orangeHead"&gt;Neghereting Shiva Mandir :&lt;/p&gt;                       &lt;p&gt;Perched on a hill top, it is an ancient Shiva temple built by Ahom kings. It is surrounded by lush green tea gardens and is a popular picnic spot. From the NH 37, it is only about 1 and 1/2 Km to the north. From Golaghat town, it is about 30 Kms and from Jorhat town it is about 32 Kms. Neghereting temple is also the home of hundreds of monkeys.&lt;/p&gt;                       &lt;p class="orangeHead"&gt;Deopahar Ruins, Numaligarh :&lt;/p&gt;                       &lt;p&gt;Is that ruins are always so much more appealing than restorations ? Deopahar is an example. Scattered on the hill top are ruins of an ancient temple with statues lying shattered and greenery sprouting from the heads of others. The climb to the top of the hill is exhausting, especially on a hot day, but the view from the top spanning across Numaligarh Tea Estate and nearby Karbi Anglong hills and forests is simply divine. Deoparbat is situated just by the side of road, about only 5 Kms. from Numaligarh Tinali on NH 37, from where the N.H. 39 leading to Dimapur starts.&lt;/p&gt;                       &lt;p class="orangeHead"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Uncle Robin's Children Museum :&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;                       &lt;p&gt;The museum is located on the main road in Golaghat town and within the residence of Dr Robin Banerjee, a naturalist of International repute.

The pioneering man in this Great Venture was Dr. O. L. Swanson, a missionary from America, who had come to Assam in 1893 along with his wife.

It is inhabited by the world's largest population of one-horned rhinoceroses, as well as many mammals, including tigers, elephants, panthers and bears, and thousands of birds. With Open country covered mostly with elephant grass, Kaziranga gives visitors a chance to see the fauna at fairly close quarters. &lt;p&gt;Situated in Golaghat and Nagaon district, the Kaziranga National Park extends over an area of 430 sq. km. It is bounded by the Mikir Hills on the South and Bramhaputra River on the north. The park, 217 km from the capital of Assam, Guwahati was declared a Wildlife sanctuary in 1950 and accorded the status of a National Park in 1974. The park divided into central, eastern and western sectors consists of semi- evergreen-forested highlands, rivulets, marshes and extensive plains covered with tall elephant grass up to 6 metres high.&lt;/p&gt;                       &lt;p&gt;The park is famous for Indian one horned rhinoceros, which can reach a height of over two metres and weigh more than two tonnes. The area was declared a game reserve in 1908 to save the one-horned rhino. The total number of rhinoceros in the park totals more than a thousand which is 70 percent of the total population of this species in the country.&lt;/p&gt;                       &lt;p&gt;The park also has elephants, swamp or wild buffalo (Over 70% of the world population), swamp deer, hog deer, barking deer, sambar/ Hoolock gibbon, pythons, civet cat, wild boar and tigers. There is a rich variety of fresh water fowls, over 450 species of woodland and grassland birds of which 18 species are globally threatened. Birds like the egrets, pond herons, river tern, black necked storks, pelican, partridges, Bengal florican stork, pied hornbill, fishing eagle are found in abundance. The river here has the gharial (fish eating crocodile) and dolphins.&lt;/p&gt; March - April is best for animal sightings. Trained elephants are available as mounts for seeing the rhinos at close range. Elephant rides which last around one hour, should be booked the previous evening at the park administrative Centre in Kohora.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;                   &lt;/tr&gt;                   &lt;tr class="TextMainJG"&gt;                     &lt;td&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/td&gt;                   &lt;/tr&gt;                   &lt;tr class="TextMainJG"&gt;                     &lt;td&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.northeastindiatravels.net"&gt;&lt;span class="orangeHead"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;How to Get There :&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;               &lt;br /&gt;                   &lt;span class="orangeHead"&gt;Air&lt;/span&gt; : The nearest airports are at Jorhat, 97-km and Guwahati, 217-km away from the park.
