chalet xl Assam s must-do attraction is an elephant safari to look for rhinoceros hiding in the expansive gras





Assam s must-do attraction is an elephant safari to look for rhinoceros hiding in the expansive grasslands of this national park (h1 Nov-30 Apr, elephant rides 5.30-8.30am, jeep access 7.30am-noon & 2.30pm-dusk). Kaziranga s population chalet xl of around 1855 Indian one-horned rhinos (just 200 in 1904) represents more than two-thirds of the world s total. The park consists of a western, central and an eastern range, but the central range is the most accessible, giving the best viewing chances for rhinos, elephants and swamp deer plus plenty of bird life (take binoculars).

Trafik BAR (GNB Rd; beers 70; h10am-10pm) This underlit bar has a vast screen for cricket matches or filmi (slang term describing anything to do with Indian movies; in this case, Bollywood music) clips. chalet xl

Two kilometres east of Hajo is a mosque sheltering the tomb of the multi-named Hazarat Shah Sultan Giasuddin Aulia Rahmatullah Alike who died some 800 years ago. Muslims chalet xl need to walk (the less pious may drive) 4km up a spiral road to reach the mosque, which is architecturally unremarkable.

oHotel Mona Lisa (%2320416; Mancotta Rd; r 600-1500; a), part Africa, chalet xl part Cuba and possibly even a little slice of India, is a superb budget chalet xl hotel with character. It s set back from the main road and everything is kept ticking along smoothly thanks to the lovely old man running it.
