THE STORY
Majuli: a closer look
Majuli is a river-island setting associated with Assamese satra traditions. Monastic institutions, performance, craft and everyday village life help explain its cultural importance. The Brahmaputra shapes access and the landscape, so travel arrangements depend on current river conditions.
Weaving, river life, tea culture and Assamese food make rewarding additions to sightseeing. Guwahati is a practical urban starting point, but the character of a journey changes as you move into the countryside.
Before you visit
Opening hours, access, tickets, photography rules and advance arrangements should be checked for your travel dates. Share any mobility or dietary requirements when requesting a programme.
