How To Reach Deva Bhavana

By Air (Flying In) The nearest major airport is Lokpriya Gopinath Bordoloi International Airport (GAU) in Guwahati, the capital city of Assam. This airport is well-connected to major Indian cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Bengaluru, and others. Hajo is approximately 40-45 KMS from the Guwahati airport. Upon landing, the most comfortable and direct way to reach Deva Bhavana is by hiring a pre-paid taxi or a ride-sharing cab directly to Hajo. The journey takes about 1. 5 to 2 hours, depending on traffic, and offers scenic views of the Assamese countryside and the Brahmaputra river plains. Alternatively, you can take a local bus from the airport to the main Guwahati bus terminal and then catch a subsequent local bus to Hajo. By Train (Rail Travel) The main railway hub is Guwahati Railway Station (GHY), which is one of the busiest and most well-connected stations in the Northeast, linking it to almost all major cities across India. The second closest and more convenient option for the Hajo area is Kamakhya Junction (KYQ), which is closer to the western parts of Guwahati and thus slightly closer to Hajo. From either station, the best way to travel the remaining 28-35 KMS is by hiring an auto-rickshaw or taxi. A road journey from Guwahati city to Hajo typically takes about 1 hour. Pilgrims often find the taxi or auto option more direct than navigating local buses from the station. By Road (Driving or Bus) Hajo is situated on the north bank of the Brahmaputra River and is well-connected by a good network of national highways and state roads. If driving from Guwahati, the route involves crossing the Saraighat Bridge or the new Narnarayan Setu and then taking the road towards North Guwahati/Nalbari. Regular state-run and private bus services operate from the main Guwahati bus terminals, particularly the ISBT (Inter State Bus Terminal), to Hajo. These buses are very economical. The road journey is smooth and covers approximately 28-31 KMS. If driving your own vehicle, follow GPS directions for Hajo town and then local signs for the Hayagriva Madhava Temple, as Deva Bhavana is in its close vicinity. By Local Transport (Within Hajo) Once you arrive in Hajo town, Deva Bhavana is easily accessible due to its central location. Since it is only about 1-2 KMS from the town center and very close to the more famous Hayagriva Madhava Temple, you can hire a local auto-rickshaw (tempo or tuktuk) for a short ride. For visitors who prefer walking, it's a manageable distance from the town square, allowing you to enjoy the local streetscape. For the entire Hajo temple circuit (Pancha Tirtha), the best local transport option is to negotiate a day rate with a local auto-rickshaw driver to take you to all the main sites.
