Temple of bells
"Tilinga" means "bell" in the Assamese language. The temple holds a spot in the Limca Book of World Records for hosting one of the largest collections of bells of all types, shapes, and sizes. Visitors started a tradition of promising to return and donate a bell if their prayers were answered. The temple came up in 1965 when Tea garden workers discovered a Shiva Linga naturally emerging from the ground near an ancient Peepal (Banyan) tree.
Marut Nandan Kanan Park
Na-pukhuri, literally meaning 9 ponds, is a cluster of nine interconnected ponds dating back to 1792. Now the place has been converted into a park complete with paved pathways and jogging tracks. The park also houses a triple cascade fountain.
Guijan Ghat is a scenic riverside area located on the banks of the Dibru River. The spot is widely celebrated for its eco-tourism infrastructure, offering stunning sunset views over the vast river channels and excellent birdwatching opportunities. It serves as both a day-trip and an overnight spot. Night stay in luxury houseboats is also available. Activities include moonlight fishing, bonfires, and river cruising.
