Garamur (Majuli, Assam)
One of the largest riverine islands in the world, Majuli’s geographic isolation and serene atmosphere provides sanctuary to many satras (monastic centres). Slowly eroded by the Brahmaputra, Majuli’s fragile environment and unique cultural landscape make it an aspirant for the UNESCO World Heritage tag. At Garamur, stay in bamboo chang ghars, ethnic huts of the Mishing tribe. Feast on Mishing cuisine like fish, duck and bamboo shoot, catch blazing sunsets at Luit Ghat and witness the raas festival in Oct-Nov.
