Barpeta is a city that is also known as the Land of the Satras. It is an important city in Assam and lies towards the west of the state. You will have to travel nearly 90 kilometers, or 56 miles, away from the quaint city of Guwahati. The name Barpeta is derived from ‘Bar’ meaning big and ‘peta’, which means pond.
Which means big ponds just as it was in the past when Barpeta was full of such ponds.
