Reviews Of Agnigarh Hill
Tezpur, Assam, India
Agnigarh Hill is a small, picturesque hillock located on the north bank of the majestic Brahmaputra River in the city of Tezpur, Assam. The name Agnigarh is derived from two Sanskrit words: "Agni" meaning fire and "Garh" meaning fortress or wall, translating to "Fortress of Fire". This name is centr al to its profound mythological significance. According to the Hindu Puranas (scriptures), this was the location of the fortress built by the demon king Banasura to keep his beautiful daughter, Usha, in isolation. The legend states that the fortress was constantly surrounded by a wall of fire to prevent anyone from entering or leaving without the king's permission. The story revolves around Usha's forbidden love for Aniruddha, the grandson of Lord Krishna. Usha dreamt of a handsome prince and fell in love. Her companion, Chitralekha, a talented artist and one possessing mystical powers, painted his portrait and identified him as Aniruddha. Defying King Banasura's will, Chitralekha magically brought Aniruddha to Agnigarh. Upon discovering the secret marriage, Banasura imprisoned Aniruddha, which led to a fierce battle between Banasura's forces (supported by Lord Shiva) and Lord Krishna's army. The hillock today has been beautifully developed by the Assam Tourism Development Corporation into a scenic park with landscaped gardens, circular walkways, and a series of sculptures depicting scenes from the legendary love story and the epic battle. It offers a spectacular panoramic view of the Brahmaputra River and the entire Tezpur town. The tranquility and the historical narrative make it one of the most prominent tourist attractions, often referred to as the "Love Site of Northeast India". Visitors can ascend the circular staircase to the crest of the hill, where the viewing platform provides breathtaking vistas of the surrounding landscape, including the Kolia Bhomora Setu (bridge). The site is a perfect blend of natural beauty, ancient mythology, and modern recreational development.
