Majuli island has an area of about 1080 sq. kms. and is located in the Brahmaputra Valley, Assam state. Majuli enjoys the privilege of being the largest river island in the world. Crested in the bosom of the mighty Brahmaputra and fondly tucked up by Lohit and Khabalu with loving care.

Majolis individual distinctiveness is that it is not uphill, down dale, snow capped mountains or warbling mountain springs which put a tourist into the thrall in Majub, but it is the freedom of the wind, the freedom of the rivers, the vistas of freedom opening up one after another, the freedom of the birds and the pristine primitiveness, simplicity and innocence of the people living for centuries at close proximity of nature that sways, excites and thrifis the imagination of the tourists. During the monsoon, the rivers swell and vast tracts of land are submerged. The old and the young, and even children steer clear on their rowing boats to safe destinations. No one seems scared of the swelling torrents and no depths seem unchartered water for them. At night wild geese and ducks fly in flocks high above one's head to far-away destinations. Wild birds of a thousand ldnds- local as well as migratory swarm the heels and rivers in Majuli.

There are islands within islands in Majuli and like a capricious woman quickly changing her mood, the landmass keeps changing its shape after every summer. Its beauty reminds a visitor of the shifting reality of the rainbow.
