Shri Govindajee Mandir & Around HINDU TEMPLE The 1776-built Shri Govindajee Mandir, with two rather suggestive domes, is a neo- Vaishnavite temple with Radha and Govinda as the presiding deities. Afternoon puja (offerings, prayers) is for one hour at 4pm in winter and 5pm in summer.
Tariffs are seasonal and highly negotiable in the low season. During peak periods hotels timber run fill fast, but there are dozens of choices around the Police Bazaar area, so just keep looking. Taxes add a discouraging 20% to your bill (included in the prices listed here).
Prices drop at least 30% when Kaziranga National Park closes. In season booking ahead is wise and advance payment timber run is often required. All the better hotels timber run listed here sell Jungle Plan packages, which includes full-board accommodation, park entrance fees, a morning elephant safari timber run and an afternoon jeep safari. Unless stated otherwise, the prices we list are for rooms only.
