The great muddy-brown Brahmaputra River s ever-shifting puzzle of sandbanks includes Majuli, which at around moliet france 421 sq km (2001 figures) is India s largest river island (many locals will tell you that Majuli is the world s largest 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, moliet france shimmering mat of glowing rice fields moliet france and water meadows bursting with flowers.
