  1. Assam's most famous parks are Kaziranga and Manas. Both were conferred World Heritage Status in 1985. Kaziranga National Park is solitary among the foremost national parks in the earth and also famous as the pleasure of the North East India. Tourist across the seas comes here to visit the amazing location and many travelers who prefer to stay at Grassland Resorts in Kaziranga.
