Barak River Assam

Assam is geographically divided into two parts, Brahmaputra Valley and Barak Valley, where the latter is spread across three districts, named Cachar, Hailakandi and Karimganj. People visit Barak Valley to enjoy its unspoilt nature, historical sites and rich collection of flora and fauna. Located in south Assam, the valley is named after the Barak River, which is the second-largest river in the whole of North-East India and Silchar is the main city of this valley. One of the top tourist places in Barak Valley is the Kachari Fort in the Cachar District. It offers strong historical references to the mediaeval times. The picturesque fort is surrounded by lush greenery on all sides and the carvings on the ruins depict the then lifestyle of the Assamese.

The other two famous tourist spots are Kanch Kanti Kali Temple and Maniharan Tunnel. The former is a temple dedicated to Goddess Kanch Kanti (a combination of Kali and Durga), built by a Kachari King in the 19th century and located around 10 kilometres from Silchar. Maniharan Tunnel is an ancient tunnel found in Barak Valley, which is believed to be used by Lord Krishna. Barak Valley is also home to 550 species of birds and 100 species of mammals.

Places to Visit in Silchar

This city serves as the district capital of Assam's Cachar District and is home to a wide variety of interesting landmarks. The city's position in the peaceful Barak Valley makes it an ideal base from which to explore the surrounding countryside. Barack valley's placid demeanour is what inspired India's former prime minister, Indira Gandhi, to dub it the “island of peace.” Due to its rocky riverbank, the city got its name from the Bengali terms “shil” and “char,” which translate to “rock” and “riverside,” respectively. The city is home to Assam University's main campus as well as the National Institute of Technology. Additionally, the city is home to one of the world's oldest polo clubs.
