Guwahati ( Assamese : গুৱাহাটী Guvāhāṭī guah-hah-tih), previously Gauhati , is the capital and the largest city in the Indian state of Assam . Guwahati is one of the fastest-growing cities in India.

Understand [ edit ]

Excavations trace the origins of the city to around the 4th century and it was the capital of Assam until the 10th century.

The rapidly-growing metropolis has a population of 2.4 million in 2020, and encompasses an area of over 360 km 2 (140 sq mi), making it the largest city in the state and the region. It is the main centre for shopping, retail and business; attracting people from all over North-Eastern India as well as from Eastern Bhutan . The slow, meandering Brahmaputra River is a focal point of the city while the lush hills of the Shillong Plateau provide a verdant backdrop for the suburbs.

The pleasant environment, however, is somewhat tempered by the inadequate investment in the region, which is apparent from the low quality of roads. Still, despite the average infrastructure, private investors have been drawn to the city, and there has been something of a boom in the construction of shopping malls and high-quality condominiums, which has helped raise the economic profile of the city. The end of the decades-long insurgency in Assam has also helped in the economic boom of Guwahati.

This article also covers Dispur (দিছপুর Dichpur ), Assam's seat of government. In 1973, Assam was reorganized to form the smaller states of Meghalaya , Manipur and Mizoram . Assam lost its capital, Shillong , to Meghalaya. A search for a new capital ensued and the choice settled on Dispur, then a suburb of Guwahati.

Climate [ edit ]

Guwahati's climate is subtropical. Summers last here from April to May, monsoons from June to September and winters from October to March. Temperatures here approximately range between 19°C and 26°C. 161.3 cm is the average yearly precipitation level here. Humidity is more than 80/90% often.

Get in [ edit ]

By plane [ edit ], by train [ edit ], by car [ edit ].

NH-31, NH-37 and NH-40 pass through Guwahati. It is a 2- to 2½-hour drive via Rangia to the Bhutanese border town of Samdrup Jongkhar .

It is connected to all major cities of North-Eastern India by bus. There are overnight bus services for Dibrugarh , Kohima , Imphal , Itanagar , Siliguri .

By boat [ edit ]

Luxurious vessels with AC upper decks connect Guwahati to Dibrugarh , passing through Kaziranga and Tezpur.

Get around [ edit ]

Buses are the cheapest way of travelling around the city. Guwahati is well connected to most of its city area with local service buses, and there is an air-conditioned bus service between the airport and the city.

By auto [ edit ]

Compared to other cities in India, autos charge a hefty price for the ride. There is no meter system used by the autos, the auto driver will simply refuse to drive you if you insist on the meter, the best you can do is negotiate in advance (check with a local on what it should cost you). Small distance charges are high.

If you can not go on the river cruise, at least cross the river on the ferry. Ferries provide transport to the local people - they leave the jetty at Fancy Bazar every half an hour and the round trip will take around 45 minutes. Tickets are ₹10, 1 way.
