Gaurisagar Tank

Gaurisagar tank is about 12 km away from Sibsagar tank. It was built around 200 years ago. There are three temples around this pond, which are dedicated to Durga and her various forms.

Along with the temple, the pond also built by the queen of Assam, Phuleshwari Devi. She followed the Sakta branch of Hinduism and also tried to make Sakti the state religion of Assam. It also led to a rebellion by the Momorias as they forced to worship Durga.

The big pond and three temples spread over 150 acres are the main attractions here.

Apart from Assam, devotees from other parts of the country also come here to offer prayers. Along with the pond, the surrounding area is also a picnic spot for tourists.
