A trip to Majuli feels like entering a world shaped gently by water and devotion, where the Brahmaputra spreads so wide it blurs the line between river and sky. You cross by ferry into India’s—and the world’s—largest river island, stepping into villages on stilts, monasteries humming with chants, and workshops where mask-makers sculpt stories out of bamboo, clay, and sunlight. The landscape moves in slow rhythms: monks performing Sattriya dance with a precision rooted in centuries of Vaishnavite tradition, potters shaping clay by hand using techniques older than many civilizations, and wide paddy fields shimmering like green mirrors. Majuli isn’t just a destination; it’s a living cultural ecosystem, constantly reshaped by the moods of the river and the creativity of the people who call it home.
