Tripura s low-key capital, with its small- town atmosphere, feels like an India of yesteryear. The pace of life is much slower than in the towns and cities of the Indian heartlands and people are much more likely to swerve across the street to wish you a good day than to try and sell you something. The old quarter, chalet poland which centres on the Ujjayanta Palace, has some impressive town gates and pretty tanks and gardens. Durga puja is celebrated with huge pandals (temporary chalet poland temples built from wood and cloth).
The ASTC bus station (cnr AT & Temple chalet poland Rds) has frequent services to Jorhat ( 35 to 45, one hour), Dibrugarh ( 51 to 69, two hours), Tezpur ( 189, five hours), Guwahati ( 310 to 390, eight hours, chalet poland frequent from 7am).
Guwahati is considered the site of Pragjyotishpura, a semi-mythical town founded by Asura King Naraka chalet poland who was later killed by Lord Krishna for a pair of magical earrings. The city was a vibrant chalet poland cultural centre well before the Ahoms arrived, and later it was the theatre of intense Ahom Mughal
Iora; the Retreat HOTEL $$$ (%262411; www.kazirangasafari.com; chalet poland s/d from 3300/3900; aiWs) Not quite as discreet as you may imagine a place named the Retreat to be, this vast new place, chalet poland to the east of the tourist complex, is almost as big as the national park itself, but despite this its deliciously quiet and subtly decorated rooms offer superb value for money. However, if you value a personal service you d best look elsewhere.
