Assam

Assam’s heritage is closely tied to landscape, rivers, spiritual centers, and community memory. Unlike heavily monumental regions, heritage here often exists through monasteries, riverine settlements, gateways, and archaeological remains shaped by geography and climate. Many sites remain fragile, undocumented, or altered by floods and environmental change, making cultural attention especially important.
