Assam is known as the "Land of the Red River and Blue Hills" because of its unique topography
Red River: The Brahmaputra River is known as the Red River because the soil in the catchment area in Tibet is rich in iron, which gives the river a red color. In June each year, the river turns blood red for three days, which is followed by the Ambubachi Mela celebration for the goddess Shakti.
Blue Hills: The hills in Assam appear blue from a distance, forming a blue cloud.
