How To Reach Hajo
Exploring Guwahati, Assam, India
Hajo is a unique and significant pilgrimage site in Assam, renowned for being a confluence of three major religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam. This rare blend of faiths makes Hajo a fascinating destination for spiritual seekers and cultural enthusiasts. The town is dotted with numerous temples and shrines, each with its own history and legends. The most prominent Hindu temple is the Hayagriva Madhava Temple, situated atop Monikut Hill. Dedicated to Lord Vishnu in his Hayagriva avatar, it is a significant pilgrimage spot for Hindus. Interestingly, this temple is also revered by Buddhists, who believe that Lord Buddha attained Nirvana here. The temple's architecture is impressive, and its walls are adorned with beautiful sculptures depicting scenes from the Ramayana. Below the temple is a large pond, famous for its resident giant turtles, which are considered sacred. For Muslims, Hajo holds immense importance due to the Poa Mecca Mosque. Built in the 17th century by Pir Ghiyasuddin Auliya, it is believed that a pilgrimage to Poa Mecca is equivalent to one-fourth of the spiritual merit gained from a pilgrimage to Mecca (hence "Poa" meaning quarter). The mosque's serene atmosphere and historical significance attract devotees from various parts of India. The town itself is surrounded by lush green fields and offers a tranquil rural setting. Exploring Hajo allows visitors to witness a harmonious coexistence of different faiths and gain insights into the rich spiritual tapestry of Assam. It's a place where history, legend, and religious devotion intertwine, offering a truly enriching experience.
