The Nameri National Park located in Assam,embraces the Himalayan Foothills. It was denoted with the status of a National Park in 1998. The park is composed of an interplay between moist deciduous forests, evergreen forests, grassland, bamboo and cane. The park which is surrounded by the river Jia Bharali and its tributaries is also an important Tiger Reserve. It is located about 180 kms from Guwahati, on the border of Assam and Arunachal Pradesh.

The river which flows through the Park is famous for the large variety of fish present in it. The Golden Masheer Fish is the most coveted species which due to its size is often known as the “Tiger of the Himalayan Rivers.” Exotic wildlife, including rare and endangered species of mammals, reptiles and insects are found in this park.
