The great muddy-brown snowmass mammoth Brahmaputra River s ever-shifting puzzle of sandbanks includes Majuli, which at around 421 sq km (2001 figures) is India s largest river island (many locals will tell you that Majuli is the world s largest snowmass mammoth river island, but in fact this honour belongs to Brazil s Bananal Island). Size aside, what there is no doubting is Majuli s sheer beauty. The island is a relaxed, shimmering mat of glowing rice fields and water meadows bursting snowmass mammoth with flowers. Aside from relishing the laidback snowmass mammoth vibe that permeates island life, highlights of a visit include birdwatching and learning about neo- Vaishnavite philosophy at one of Majuli s 22 ancient satras (Hindu Vaishnavite monasteries and centres snowmass mammoth for art). If all this makes Majuli sounds snowmass mammoth like your kind of place then don t waste time getting snowmass mammoth there surveys indicate that at current levels of erosion the island will cease to exist within 20 years.
