City Map of Sibsagar - Assam

Sibsagar can be found in the Eastern part of Guwahati. It is the headquarters of the Sibasagar district. The town is located on the Dikhu River, somewhere around the left bank of the Brahmaputra River.

It was the capital of the Ahoms who ruled in Assam for 600 years. The town first fell into the hands of the Burmese before the coming of the British. The modern Sibsagar district is now a fast developing town in Assam.

Like the other towns and cities in Assam, it also excels in the tea and oil industry. The eastern regional Headquarters of the Oil and Natural Gas Commission is situated at Nazira, about 18 km from Sibsagar.

The town is the center of tea cultivation in the Brahmaputra Valley, which was introduced by the Assam Company in 1852. It has a large number of well-managed tea gardens which generates income in the province. Several timber mills can also be found in Sibsagar.
