Our guide will bring you to Mayong, a village steeped in folklore and legends for centuries. We will meet local residents and talk about powerful sorcerers from the past who practiced magic here, including spells that could make people disappear, transform humans into animals, or tame wild beasts. The village's association with black magic is even mentioned in epics like the Mahabharata, where Ghatotkacha is said to have derived his magical powers from Mayon. We will also learn about how the villagers have adapted with times to become healers. Mayong today is renowned for its traditional healing practices, which often incorporate elements of black magic and witchcraft. The village is home to practitioners known as Bez or Oja, who use a combination of natural ingredients, herbs, and ancient mantras to heal various ailments.

We can see a diverse collection of artifacts, including ancient manuscripts, skulls, relics used in rituals, and tools that were once used for human sacrifices. It also features stone statues, old coins, and jewellery made from bones and shells

his sanctuary is home to the world's densest population of one-horned rhinoceroses, offering a contrasting experience of natural beauty alongside Mayong's mysticism. The reserve can be explored over an Elephant safari or a Jeep ride.
