Kids Encyclopedia Facts

Mājuli or Majoli (Assamese: মাজুলী, is an island in the Brahmaputra River, Assam, India.

The island had a total area of 1,250 square kilometres (483 sq mi) at the beginning of the 20th century. Much land was eroded, so it had an area of only 352 square kilometres (136 sq mi) in 2014. Majuli has shrunk as the river surrounding it has grown. However, it is recognised by Guinness Book of World Records as the World's Largest River Island.
