1: Dehing Satra
Dehing Satra
Satras are socio religious institutions that have been the backbone of the Assamese society for centuries. In Dibrugarh, the Dehing Satra stands tall as a reminder of the rich history and patronage it has witnessed years back. As a religious place, the Dehing Satra was regularly patronized by the Ahom kings. The name of the Ahom kings Rajeswar Singha and Gaurinath Singha stays at the top of the list of patrons for the unhindered dedication to the institution. During the famous Moamoria revolution, from 1769 to 1806, the Dehing Satra was highly patronized by these Ahom kings. Though the Dehing Satra lies in ruin today, tourists visiting the place will still get a waft of the legacy of the olden days. The name of the Satra is derived from the River Dehing. The Satra lies on the banks of the Dehing River. Its idyllic location has also made it a popular tourist destination today. 
 
2: Dinjoy Satra
Dinjoy Satra
Dinjoy Satra is the Assamese socio cultural institution of the Vaishnavite sect. It is situated about 5 kilometres from the Chabua Township in Dibrugarh. Devotees following Vaishnavism regularly visit this Satra. The Dinjoy Satra was founded by Aniruddha Dev, who is considered to be among the twelve main devotees of Gopal Atadev. Originally the Satra was located at Bisnubalikakunshi village near North Lakhimpur. During the Moamoria rebellion, the Dinjoy Satra fell into trouble. For many years the religious seat at the Satra remained empty after the death of its then head. Later the Burmese invasion also caused havoc with the peace of Satra. The Dinjoy Satra is famous for its prayers and strict adherence to the norms and culture of Vaishnavism. A visit to the Satra will definitely invoke the spiritual side of any person. Today the Dinjoy Satra isn’t just a religious institution but also plays a very important cultural and historical role, binding the society together. 
 
3: Koli Aai Thaan
Koli Aai Thaan
Koli Aai Thaan is highly revered among the Assamese people and, though there is no physical temple or idol at the premises of the thaan, it is one of the most visited places in Dibrugarh. The Koli Aai Thaan is counted among the oldest ‘thaans’ of the Ahom kingdom. Koli Aai Thann is dedicated to Koli Aai the daughter of the head priest of Dibaru Satra. As the Dibaru Satra did not have any male heir to carry forward the legacy, Koli Aai kept the spirit of the Satra alive by her devotion and dedication. It is a prevailing belief that Koli Aai possessed divine powers and, it is due to this that one fine day she disappeared from the site. Nevertheless every year throngs of people visit the Thaan to pay their respect to ‘Aai’. The Koli Aai Thaan also has a profound impact of the religious history of Assam.

The Bahikhowa Maidam is situated within the premises of the Khowang tea estate. However, presently the Bahikhowa Maidam lies in ruins.There are three smaller maidams close to the Bahikhowa Maidam, but all of them are in ruins today.

Raidongia Dol is situated in Larua Mouza in Kalakhowa region and can be easily reached on hired taxis and local buses. Raidongia Dol still has several ancient relics of the Ahom kingdom. Though many statues that were initially there on the wall of the Dol have perished today about 14 remain. It is believed that there were 24 such statues earlier. According to historical evidences it is believed that the Dol along with the adjoining pond and 200 pura were given as dowry by Swargadeo Pramatta Singha for his sister’s marriage to Raidnogia Barua. Today the Raidnogia Dol as well as the adjacent pond gives a majestic view attracting tourists visiting Dibrugarh.
