Discover Nāmrup

 
Namrup is a small town in the state of Assam, India. Located on the banks of the Brahmaputra River and close to the border with Arunachal Pradesh, it has a subtropical climate and enjoys views of lush forests that line its valley. The name Namrup is derived from two words: 'nam', meaning 'water', and 'rup', meaning 'beauty' - which befittingly refers to both its location and its serene beauty.

Tourist attractions in Namrup include picturesque tea gardens such as Doomdooma Tea Estate and Pankaj Tea Estate, which are perfect for nature walks or photography sessions. Also worth visiting is Maa Kamakhya Temple - a revered Hindu temple dedicated to goddess Durga that dates back centuries. For those looking for an adventure-filled day out, there's rafting on Subansiri River as well as trekking around nearby mountains such as Kherbari Hill. Nature lovers will also appreciate bird watching at various wetlands like Gograpara Wetland Conservation Reserve that host many local species like Great Hornbill and Crimson-breasted Barbet amongst others!
