Majuli Travel & Tour Information

Majuli perhaps the largest riverine island in the world, nestles in the lap of the mighty Brahmaputra. Her face uplifted to the limitless frontiers o the blue sky, her feet perpetually caressed by the lapping waters of the holy Brahmaputra, her vision stretched to the distant hills of the Himalayan and other ranges, Majuli is a creation of none other than the master craftsman who moulded the universe, God himself. No wonder then that the sublime and the serene atmosphere of the island – the intimate companionship of the soul with the elements and the river provided the backdrop for the historic ‘Mani Kanchan Sanjog’ between Assam’s pioneer Vaishnavite Saints Sankaradeva and his disciple Madhava in the 15th century. Ever since that meeting of the great minds and the subsequent establishment of ‘Satras’ that followed, Majuli emerged as the crowning glory of Vaishnavite culture in Assam.

Multifaceted in its attaraction, Majuli unfolds a vanity of interest to the tourist - Rare migratory birds, traditional handicrafts and pottery, ethnic culture and dance forms, water sports etc.

According to the reports of Mr. J. H. Mills in 1853 the total area of Majuli was 2,82, 165 acre, but to strong erosion of the river Brahmaputra it has been gradually decreasing and the present area is less than 880 sq kms.
