The ruins of an ancient temple with statues lying shattered and greenery sprouting from the heads of others. From the top of the hill, one can get a view spanning across Numaligarh Tea Estate and nearby hills and forests, which is simply divine.
Deopahar is an archaeological site located in Numaligarh, Assam, India. It is one of the most noteworthy ancient heritages of Golaghat district in Assam. Numaligarh is prominently known as one of the archaeologically rich places of the state because of the historical remains of the ancient temple and sculptures that were excavated from the top of the Deopahar. The ancient stone temple and sculptures uncovered at this site are fine specimens of ancient art that represent the interconnection between Brahmanical art and local art, thus, providing enough data for the historians to determine the period of time it was created. It is a protected archaeological park and has a site-museum under the Directorate of Archaeology. The construction of the stone temple appears to be incomplete or damaged, possibly during the Assam earthquake of 1897.
