Description

Meghalaya - The Falls, the caves and The Scotland of the East

If you want to explore the best of Meghalaya in a 4 days time, then you are at the right place.
Book this package and we will take you to some exquisite locations around Meghalaya which often feature in many Indian Movies.
Umiam Lake: Surrounded by hills on all sides and lined by striking roadways and bridges, the Blue waters of the Umiam Lake is one of the reasons why the Guwahati-Shillong route is one of the most scenic in the region
Cherrapunjee: Cherrapunjee means "Land of Oranges". Cherrapunjee or Sohra is home to beautiful waterfalls, caves, living root bridges and other stuning natural attractions. Cherrapunjee has the only Double-Decker Root Bridge in Asia. It takes hundreds of years of training the tree root by the locals from different generations so that it forms a bridge over the course of time.
Mawlynnong: Have you ever wanted to visit a green village that is also extremely clean? With its greenery and exquisite biodiversity, the Mawlynnong Village in Meghalaya is the first place that comes to mind. Also known as God's Own Garden, the alluring Mawlynnong village has received a title of being the cleanest village in Asia! It's not just the cleanliness title that it celebrates but also has about 100 per cent literacy rate, a strong women empowerment movement and a mystic haven of lush greenery
Dawki: Umngot River, also known as Dawki Lake, is touted as the cleanest river in Asia. It flows through the Mawlynnong village in Meghalaya. The clear emerald green and crystal blue water of the Umngot River looks absolutely divine. Dawki Lake is so clear and pristine that even rocks, pebbles and fish swimming in it can be seen clearly. The boats look as if they are floating on a crystal glass surface.
Krangsuri Falls:Krang Suri waterfall is known for being located within the mountains, which can also be seen from afar. To reach the waterfall the tourists must walk alongside the border of the mountains, which is a very narrow yet slippery path. This makes the trip to the Krang Suri waterfall even more thrilling as you will be able to see the steep of the mountains and the height of the mountain. Krang Suri waterfall was also featured in various Bollywood movies throughout the years and is considered as one of the best shooting sites in Meghalaya. The colour of the plunge pool is what startles everyone. It is the most gorgeous shade of deep, copper sulphate blue.
Nartiang Monoliths: Jaintia Hills in Meghalaya is home to Nartiang Monoliths - a collection of monoliths that that are believed to be the tallest in the world. Monoliths are upright structures carved from one single stone that serve as a monument or pillar. The Monoliths were erected approximately during 1500 AD. and 1835 AD.
