The birthplace of Srimanta Sankardeva, Nagaon nests within it the seeds of Assam’s Vaishnavite movement.
Nagaon is located 50 km downstream along the Brahmaputra river from Vaani Greens. The Nagaon district includes a part of the Kaziranga National Park.
Earlier known as Khagorijan, ancient Nagaon had its headquarters at Puranigudam. It was ruled by the Ahoms who were attacked by the Kacharis, who vandalized a large part of the kingdom. After the Ahoms finally defeated the Kacharis, Ahom officer Momai Tamuli Borboruah was ordered to rebuild the area. Over time, new villages were built. That is how Nagaon (Na meaning new and Gaon meaning village) eventually came about.
Come, experience the magnificence of peaceful co-existence as you walk through the Kanchanjuri Tea Garden, breathing fresh air, viewing a panorama of vibrancy, and feasting on delectable cuisine for an everlasting memory!
