Beautiful experience.Mind blowing place.Now entry is prohibited but end of Monsoon it will be re open for tourists.Need to take permission first enter this Sanctuary. Surrounded by beautiful natural Resources.Really love it .

It is a part of the Laokhowa-Burachapori eco-system. The sanctuary is an ideal habitat for Indian rhinoceros and Asiatic water buffaloes. Other animals found here are the Bengal tiger, Indian leopard, Indian boar, leopard cat, hog deer. Over 200 species of birds have been recorded in the sanctuary, including migratory birds.[3] Laokhowa had more than 70 Indian rhinos in early 1980s which were all killed by poachers. In 2016, two rhinos, a mother and her daughter, were reintroduced to the sanctuary from Kaziranga National Park as part of the Indian Rhino Vision 2020 (IRV 2020) program, but both animals died within months due to natural causes.

Don't follow the road that Google shows. It will take you somewhere else. You will not reach laokhowa sanctuary by this road. If you go from nagaon then simply keep go on laokhowa rupohi road, the road is straight. But don't follow the Google's road

Best naturewatching place. Too awesome to get rid of daily huzzle buzzle life.Amazing wildlife study place.Working or Wildlife enthusiasts people must have a visit. Full of rich diversity.

Best spot for the nature loving beings..the mangroove forest holds the uniqueness of this WLS and the island is a perfect spot for viewing the sunrise.

Peaceful place ...you will love it...lack of availability of good foods....spend some time here you will love nature more....
