Agnigarh

Worth spending time and visiting the place but the approach road to this important place needs to be improved.

It is a historical place from which the name of the city “Tezpur” derived. It is said that this is place where the daughter of King Banasura was kept isolated. Later the war between Lord Krishna and Lord Shiva took place, which led the name of the place. Anirudha, the grandson of Lord Krishna was being attracted by the Prince Usha, got married later. King Banasura (who was the devotee of Lord Shiva) arrested him on hearing this news. It led the war between Banasura and Krishna. However being the devotee of Shiva, Lord Shiva came to rescue and it was place of blood when the war had started between Lord Shiva and Lord Krishna. Lord Vishnu came to end this war later. The entry fee is Rs 30 for adults and Rs 10 for minors. However, there is no maintenance, no proper description neither clean properly. The authority should take action to keep the sentiments and mythological beliefs intact. It has a watch tower from where the city and the surroundings, including majestic view of River Bramhaputra can be seen. But still need proper maintenance!

The stairs are not much high and placed in a way that the slope is gentle. From the top, a view brahmaputra can be seen and faintly, the Kaliabhomora bridge.

Historical hill with a view point offering a scenic view of the Brahmaputra. Well maintained. But no online payment only cash (atleast when we went)

One of the best Garden on small hills and you can easily see the Brahma Putri River.

Beautiful hilltop viewpoint in Tezpur with scenic views of the Brahmaputra. Peaceful atmosphere and well-maintained pathways make it a lovely spot to relax and enjoy the surroundings.

A must visit if u go to Tezpur. A most important event of Bhagwat Puran happened here.

This fortress is at such a beautiful location. View of Brahmaputra at evening hour must be breathtaking. I visited in the noon so it was quite warm but the garden is worth spending time and knowing the history of king Bana and his daughter Usha. Sculpture representation of historic events is done in a nice way. Entry ticket is 30rs per head. Parking is 30rs. About 500 steps to climb up to go till the top. The climb is worth..
