Majuli

A deep breath of spiritualism

No visit to Assam can be complete without a visit to the largest river island in the world! Welcome to Majuli, an island of 136 square miles between the gorgeous Brahmaputra and Buridihing rivers. It is the first island to be declared a district in India!

Take a ferry from Jorhat to visit the culturally sacred island of Majuli. The island has a large number of Sattras (Xotros in Oxomiya)–30 of them–that spread across the island. In Assam’s Vaishnavite movement, the Sattras are the most significant cultural congregations and as centres of learning. Most villages in Majuli are associated with a particular Sattra, some of the main seats of learning being Dakhinpat, Garmur, Auniati and the Kamalabari Sattra. This is where an entire school of Oxomiya culture thrives. Come and watch students learn the Xotriya Nritya, an Indian classical dance form, Borgeet, a classical devotional song form and a range of instruments including the mridang and khol.

Things to do

Watch them make their Masks

Majuli is famous for its mask making activities conducted in Samaguri Sattra. There are mostly three types of masks made in this Sattra- Mukha (face masks), Lotokai Mukha (masks created with movement of lips, eyes and hands), and Bor Mukha (life-size masks). Artists use different mythological characters to represent the masks. Popular among them are Jatayu, Hanuman, Brahma, Ravan, Ganesh and Bakasur, and many others.

Bird Watching

Majuli is also a wetland and a habitat for rare species of birds. Every year in winter, the island sees the arrival of a number of migratory bird species.
