The Pobitora Wildlife Sanctuary in Assam has finally reopened its gates to tourists after remaining closed during the monsoons.

The sanctuary is known for being home to the exotic Indian one-horned rhino population.

The doors of the park were thrown open in the presence of State Environment and Forest Minister Chandra Mohan Patowary and Water Resource minister Pijush Hazarika.

Pobitora is the ideal vacation spot for nature and wildlife lovers.

The park is located in Assam’s Morigaon district, around 48 kilometres from Guwahati.

By using a road that crosses the River Brahmaputra, one can travel here in an hour.

In 1971 and 1987, respectively, the area was designated as a restricted forest and a wildlife sanctuary.
