Salbari (Bodo: सालबारि) is the sub division of Baksa district in Assam state of India.
A hundred years ago, there was no village named Salbari, but the place was surrounded by various sal plantations, leading to economic and population growth.
There were some old villages like Hudukhata, Samuagati, Kamlabari and Hasora. After some years, people moved to the Salbari sub-division, and villages like Salbari, Madhapur, Udhiaguri Hadan, Thangabari, Aaohata, Uhiaguri and Palchiguri, Phakhriguri, Gwjwnphuri were created. There was no unity, no social activities or organisation among them. There was also no marketplace near Salbari, so residents went to a one-day market around 8.5 kilometres (5 mi) away at Bahbari Bazaar, but sometimes people of Salbari had disputes with the larger groups or local people. Therefore, the people of Salbari had the idea of creating a local marketplace and started the Salbari Bazaar.
Major part of the world-famous Manas National Park is located in this district. The park is well known for its Wild Water Buffaloes and Golden Langurs. Mothonguri, a famous picnic spot with picturesque beauties is located in Baksa. Narenguri is the other scenic location situated close to Bhutan border.
