One of the famous Satra not only in Barpeta but aslo in Assam,established by Vaishnavite Saint Madhabdev.
A beautiful collaboration of Art,Culture and Architecture,one can find immense peace and beauty in this Satra.Famous for its Doul Utsav(Holi Festival) celebrated during the Phagun Month of Assamese Calender,a spring colorful festival.
So,Lets get some glimpse of the Satra…

Barepeta Satra is an unique place of Devotion…The whole Satra wears a different color especially during the Holi..Generally Holi is a 3-5 days affair here…Holi festival in 2017 is going to be celebrated from 9 to 13th March,so if you wish to witness this extravaganza,plan your trip to Barpeta.
Barpeta is located around 90kms from Guwahati and communication is not a problem at all…
