Information about Sualkuchi silk weaving
The Sualkuchi silk visit is valuable because it is specific.

The traditional mekhela chadar gives the stop its cultural centre, but the larger point is the work itself.
For a Brahmaputra journey, this is one of the clearest ways to meet Assam without simplifying it into scenery. The river carries you to a town where craft, trade and identity are still closely linked.
