Ankiya Bhaona at Our Homestay

Ankiya Bhaona is a traditional, religious Assamese dance-drama originating in the 15th-16th centuries by the saint-reformer Srimanta Sankaradeva. Designed to convey Vaishnavite teachings, these single-act musical plays feature elaborate costumes, masks, songs, and dances, and are traditionally performed in village Namghars (prayer halls).
