Majuli Island

Majuli Island is the world's largest river island, located in the Brahmaputra River in Assam, India. Known for its rich cultural heritage, it is a hub of Assamese traditions, particularly the neo-Vaishnavism religious movement. The island features lush landscapes, vibrant festivals, and historic monasteries called satras that preserve local arts, dance, and music. Due to erosion and flooding, parts of Majuli are eroding over time, challenging its sustainability. Despite these issues, Majuli remains a unique place where nature and culture coexist, offering a glimpse into traditional Assamese life and spiritual practices.
