Old Guwahati

TIME : 2016/2/17 13:05:50

This quaint area of Guwahati, bordering the Brahmaputra River, is best explored on foot. Walk past the beehive dome of the Courthouse , which rises above attractive Dighulipukhuri Park , with its large tank full of colourful boats (per person ₹20). The nearby Guwahati Planetarium looks somewhere between a mosque and a landed UFO and and offers entertainment in the form of space shows projected on a dome-like screen. A short walk due northwest takes you to the riverbanks , where you can take in sweeping views of the Brahmaputra along a well-maintained promenade.
