Historical city which was seat of Ahom rule in Assam. Sibsanagar is a fast developing town in commercial, industrial and educational activities. Bathed in the scenic splendour of nature, Sivasagar, the modern name of ancient town, now throbs with the activities of a full- fledged industrial town. Nevertheless, the district can still conjure up images of historic wonder and obtained, its pinnacle during the reign of Ahom kings. This is the place from which the Ahoms ruled the whole province of Assam from 1228 to 1826.
Presently, Sivasagar presents the unique spectacle of industrial transformation of a silent town in the backdrop of relics of bygone days. Situated at a distance of 350 kilometers from Guwahati, Siva-sagar (earlier known as Rongpur) was the capital of the Ahom Kingdom since 1699 -to 1788. The town, dedicated to Lord Siva- its name literally meaning the ocean of siva- is strewn with tell-tale ruins of a powerful empire.
