Nestled on the mighty Brahmaputra River, Majuli holds the distinction of being the world’s largest river island. But beyond its geography, Majuli is a cultural and spiritual hub that offers a glimpse into Assam’s heritage.

The island is home to several Satras (Vaishnavite monasteries) that preserve classical dance, music, and art forms. Visitors can witness performances like Sattriya dance, a UNESCO-recognized cultural treasure. Majuli also comes alive during festivals such as Raas Leela, which draws devotees and tourists alike.

The simplicity of life here is refreshing — bamboo huts, cycling through villages, and interacting with warm-hearted locals make the experience special. Majuli is also a birdwatcher’s paradise, with migratory species flocking to its wetlands.

A trip to Majuli is more than sightseeing; it’s an immersion into traditions that have stood the test of time.
