The states of Assam and Meghalaya in northeast India are heaven for any curious traveler. Between their warm people, incredible mix of cultures, magnificent landscapes, alluring historical sites, and insanely tasty cuisine, I constantly found myself in awe there. It’s very different from other parts of the country. I’m so happy I get to share my adventures there with you!

Sivasagar was the capital of the Ahom Kingdom, which ruled for 600 years until the Burmese invaded and took over in 1819.
My afternoon began at Talatal Ghar, which is an underground, 18th-century palace. Construction began in 1751. It’s the largest Ahom monument in the area. It also contains two secret tunnels, one of which is 16 kilometers long and was built to escape enemies!
It costs 300 rupees (roughly $4.29 U.S.) for foreigners to enter and only 25 rupees ($0.36 U.S.) for Indian residents. It’s like that all over India, so foreign tourists should always be prepared to pay more to visit the attractions.
There are three giant cannons on display, and goats roam the grounds. As my friend Afzal and I explored, lots of people came up to me to shake my hand. The people in Assam are so friendly!
We headed up to the rooftop to get a view of the entire site. I loved the brick structure of the buildings. It was very Mughal and reminiscent of northern India. We reached an area of the palace where the ceilings are 25 feet high and the walls contain nooks where candles were placed to keep the tunnels lit. It’s like a maze! There are lots of windows and intricate doorways with arches. The construction materials used here included sticky rice and duck eggs!
From there, we headed down to check out the tunnels. They have low ceilings, so I had to duck so I wouldn’t bump my head. Inside the tunnels were offerings. Back on the top level, we checked out another building with lots of windows, which helped keep the palace cool.
There’s another long and low tunnel that takes you through lots of different chambers. They’re so cool and unique!
From there, we headed to the Heritage Restaurant to have some Upper Assamese food. There’s a lot more poultry and meat in the cuisine here. The restaurant is located on the shores of a lake, so we ate right out on the pier.
I started with some aloo pitika, which are mashed potatoes with chilies, onions, and tomatoes. It was hot but delicious! The chilies hit me hard! It was refreshing, though, and reminded me of a Russian salad.
The chicken curry had a rich, brownish-green tint to it and contained tomatoes and potatoes. I removed the meat from the bones and ate it with the rice. The chicken was cooked to perfection and the curry was so tasty!
Next was the bamboo pork, which had a rich, green color, and looked like it was mixed with veggies. It was so fatty and full of phenomenal flavors! It was some of the best pork I’ve ever had! It was soft and had been roasted in the bamboo. It tasted like bamboo mixed with pork and veggies!
Next, I tried the pork with the crispy papad, which was incredible. I loved the crunch with the fatty pork! Next was a rick and colorful yellow dal with chilies and herbs. It was almost like mashed lentils and was so flavorful! The fern was a vivid green and reminded me of kale, spinach, and broccoli. So yummy!
Then I tried the boiled pork with bamboo shoots and chilies. It was very soupy and tasted like wonton soup with pork. There were lots of Chinese flavors in it! It was fantastic! What a phenomenal meal!
From there, we headed to another Ahom palace, Kereng Ghar, which is a 7-story castle with 4 floors above ground and 3 underground.
The inside of the palace was really dark. Everything had a pinkish-orange hue. I had never seen pillars like the ones inside it. Kegeng Ghar was built in 1750 and was the first palace built in the area for the capital. The main room for the king is on the top level. I loved the Ahom architecture. Then we climbed to the very top for some unreal views!
Visiting amazing historical sites like this is why I love travel!

@Abengia ,
That's your personal weird perception, He did Enjoyed his Northeast India/Assam Tour 2019,
He has plans/wish to visit Northeast India again & cover the Still not uncovered states/cities
@Abengia where do u stay BTW? R u even Indian? How can u troll a state by ur hopeless statements??
@Abengia where you from??
@Abengia that's ur personal opinion man.u can't globalise a statement such as these.. I don't think u hv rhino's in Bhutan or any other wild life sanctuary
@Abengia fuck u
Assam is the only place where Mughals failed to invade 17 times
True
Mir jumla invaded and jaydhawaj singha..... Also known as "Bhogonia Roja" Surrendered rangpur.... He gave his daughter Romoni Gavoru as hostage... His son was brave Chakradhavaj singha...... His general was the great Lacith Borphukon....... Who made brahmaputra red with mughal blood....... In the battle Horaighat.... Joi Aiii axom
😂😂😂 lol only assam 😂😂😂😂hahaha my grandparents hv never even heard of them
ML Player Because there was no Meghalaya when the Mughals invaded Assam or when your grandparents were young. Stop embarrassing yourself
@@akioangami4105 lol who told u that i am from meghalaya ....even british colonials could only cover the plain areas of my state but they couldn't abled to coverup the max partof my state bcoz our ancestors were great warriors we may be very less in nos. But no one can rule arunachaless directly........so dont use "only" when there are many areas were mughals didnt enter
North East India. A place where beauty can be described by your taste buds and its culture.
Thanks man for showing our history, food and culture to the world. Hope you enjoyed your stay here. God bless you.

Love the way you pronounce 'alu pitika'😃😂
Hmm♥️
Haha
Alu pitika 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋
These are the actual Assamese thali ..love it
Those offering that you saw in the palace was for the past generations as we ahoms believe in praying to our ancestors...
I am so upset ur northeast tour is slowly coming to its end.... 😭
Anaya kaushik it is the end!
@@Davidsbeenhere so the Korea vlogs are next?
@@Davidsbeenhere David a live q&a session.... Live chat.....
But he is visiting Nagaland soon
Sometimes its really sad to see people coming to explore these amazing places from different parts of the globe yet, many people still being in the same country don't know much about it.
But really a nice video🙂
Can anyone tell me the resort name...plz plz from sivsagr anyone
Love from Sivasagar "The historical place" .. Assam 😍😍
Resort name plz..
Thank you David for making such a beautiful video of North East.I like that you are adding very important details in those videos,but there are more beautiful places yet to visit.Hope you will visit again.
Find someone who is as hungry as you are. Keep exploring and spread happiness. Lots of love from Sivasagar.
Sivasagar is one of the best tourist destination in the world...
Assam Govt if you are charging so much for a foreigner than at least provide a guide to them. And David you must be first person to eat pork with papar. 😁
Foreigners deserve to pay that much. They make more money and have more disposable income
@@finnyforever08 disposable? LMAO... it's their hard earned money brother...it seems a lot for people from developing countries, but their expenses are more than us too...
@@finnyforever08I guess you haven't understood what i have meant, if you are paying the price you must also get facilities accordingly. And kindly get the meaning of foreigner and tourists are not only from UK or US.
@@roy_ishere Then let's discuss the exchange rate for a minute.
😜 yeah😁😁😁
Love from sivasagar, Assam,India
thanks for coming brother ❤
That's the reason I was unhappy with kabyashree(guide from ghy). Pork and northeast India is a heavenly love story, if you love pork you must try it here in northeast India coz it's in a different level altogether...

I haven't expected that, the local "guides" know very less about the talatal ghar
It's the "Heritage Joysagar " restaurant. 😍💓
David's show has become a regular necessity now... Amazing content.. Wonderful people and Place.....and of course those mouth watering delights........

Excellent boss..u r making me fall in love with assam
Thank you David for showing beautiful places in Assam in the world. Your videos are amazing. Salute to you.😊👏
Every time you are explaining the architecture you are taking name of Mughal ...dude come on ..Assam is only place in Ancient India where Mughal could not took over .. our Assamese Army defeated them 17 time every time they attacked ... that Guied is a moslem so he didn't opposed your talk ..but dude , an Ahom or any other Assamese then moslem would have opposed that .
Thanks for Visiting.
Right Bro what you have said! Wht about now?
But took over by British. Bakwaas band kar.
Pol Robson Hazarika pretty pointless because the Ahom’s own general betrayed them in the end and left the people at the mercy of the invading Burmese.
@@harshitmalhotra6434 fyi 1826 me british colony hua tha wo bhi apni marji se......toh tu apna bakwas band kr....agr british k sath merch nhi hua hota toh aaj India k sath nhi hota smjha

Just a rejoinder...Tai Ahoms came from Mung Mao and reached Assam in 1228... Mung Mao was a kingdom that contained a part of present day Myanmar and Yunnan. So the origin of Tai Ahoms is in Yunnan. Since all Tai people of South East Asia have their origin in Yunan there are many similarities in various Tai cultures. But original Tai customs can be found only in Laos(Black Tais) , Vietnam and among Tai Ahoms of Assam. Other Tai people have incorporated Buddhist customs in their culture so they are a little different. If you visit Yunnan you will find their Similarities with Ahoms. The Rice Beer, the Gamocha, the Silk of Assam and Bihu all have origins in Yunnan. The Gargaon palace is actually 7 stories...3 underground. Seven is a sacred no of Tai Ahoms. The thorn had seven steps. You did miss Che Rai Doi...half hour drive from Gargaon.. which is the most sacred place of Ahoms. Kings were given "Moidam" there. Like Pharoas in Egypt... Ahom festivals are MeDamMePhi, Um Pha where ancestors are worshiped. Also Rik Khuwan is performed. Khuwan means spirit. Remember this word. You will come across this in Tai countries in South East Asia.
Footnote...The Thais migrated to Thailand from Yunan around the same time as the expendition of Ahoms to Assam. So you will see a lot more similaties between Tai Ahom culture and Thai culture.
David the problem is majority of today's Ahom have lost control of their culture and traditions. We are trying our best to revive our culture before it is lost forever.
OMG... Amazing.. 👌👌👌
খুব সুন্দৰ লাগিছে 👌
Awww David 😛....being an Assamese ,I even haven't explored to any places of Assam ☹....but m hppy dat I got to see many places through ur vlogs 😁.....as I always comment u, u r amazing 👌👌.....u r my favvvv ....thnku sooo much David 4 exploring Assam 🙏...
