About EightLore
North-East India is home to eight states, dozens of distinct civilizations, and some of the most extraordinary stories on earth. Most of those stories have never been told outside the region — and many have barely been told inside it.
EightLore exists to change that. Not as a travel guide. Not as a tourism platform. As a place where the stories of these eight states are told with the depth, care, and reverence they deserve.
Every story on EightLore is written by Subansiri Rhapsode — our lead storyteller. He writes about people, histories, art, and places. One story at a time. Slowly. Without a listicle in sight.
The Eight States
Where the Brahmaputra decides everything
The state that grew its bridges
Floating islands and the world's oldest market
Sixteen tribes, one festival, a thousand songs
Where India sees its first light
The Blue Mountain and the people beneath it
Ten million faces carved into a cliff
The kingdom that kept its soul
Eight states. Infinite stories.
Start anywhere.
