Meghalaya The Land of Rain, Living Root Bridges & Waterfalls
If you’ve ever dreamed of walking through clouds, listening to waterfalls, and waking up to misty mountains, then Meghalaya is calling you.
Tucked away in India’s northeast, Meghalaya is a land where nature does all the talking—through lush green valleys, crystal-clear rivers, and rain that feels like a warm embrace. It’s peaceful, beautiful, and perfect for a refreshing family getaway.
The Magic of Rain
Meghalaya means “abode of clouds,” and once you’re here, you’ll know why. Places like Cherrapunji and Mawsynram are known as the wettest places on Earth, but don’t let the rain scare you. Here, rain isn’t a spoiler—it’s part of the magic.
Everything looks greener, cleaner, and more alive. Waterfalls tumble from cliffs, fog rolls over hills, and the air smells of earth and pine. It’s a different kind of paradise.
Must-Visit Places in Meghalaya
1. Shillong – Known as the Scotland of the East, Shillong is cool, calm, and full of charm. Explore local cafes, waterfalls, and viewpoints.
2. Cherrapunji – Home to the famous Nohkalikai Falls and the living root bridges—natural wonders made by hand using tree roots. A must-see!
3. Mawlynnong – Called Asia’s cleanest village, it’s spotless, scenic, and the people are incredibly welcoming.
4. Dawki – A boat ride on the Umngot River feels like floating on glass. The water is so clear, you can see the stones beneath your boat.
5. Laitlum Canyon – A peaceful place with jaw-dropping views. Perfect for photos, picnics, or just taking in the silence.
