Scenic Landscapes and Natural Beauty

Home > Tourism in North East India > About NE India

The North East is renowned for its breath-taking landscapes, ranging from the snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas in Arunachal Pradesh and Sikkim to the lush green valleys and rolling hills of Meghalaya and Nagaland. Majuli in Assam, the world's largest river island, and the unique living root bridges of Meghalaya, which are recognized by UNESCO, are prime examples of the region's natural wonders. The Brahmaputra River, flowing through Assam, adds to the scenic beauty and provides opportunities for river cruises.
