Communities of North East India
Assam is famed for its rich culture and varied ethnicity, the result of a conglomeration of Mongoloid, Indo-Burmese, Indo-Iranian, and Aryan peoples. Such synthesis, which has developed over centuries, makes the region unique. The state is frequently referred to as a paradise amidst mountains and highland regions in view of its omnipresent unspoiled natural beauty and its attraction as a tourist spot. Residents of Assam are referred to as Asomiya (Assamese), which is also the official language of the state. Assam is known for its kaleidoscope of cultures which include numerous tribes — the Bodos, Misings, Tai Ahoms, Nepalis, Motoks, and many more. Each tribe in Assam enriches the cultural heritage of Assam. At Eastern Clan, we proudly create opportunities for tourists to experience the people of Assam and everything that makes the state amazing.
