Today I’m taking you to Meghalaya which means “abode of clouds” This one has my India is a land full of rivers. 1.Dawki river is actually one of the cleanest in the world. The water is green and crystal clear. The river separates India and Bangladesh. It has a 90 year old suspension bridge where I’m standing :)) Don’t you feel the boats appear to be floating on an invisible glass surface? A boat ride is a must when you visit Dawki! Meghalaya is full of beautiful waterfalls. And this one for sure caught all my attention. 

Phi Phi falls is located in the west Jantia hills. Isn’t it gorgeous? Which is the most beautiful waterfall you’ve seen? Next we go to the living root bridges! These are suspension bridges made by shaping the roots of trees. Created by the people of the Khasi tribe, these roots grow from the ancient rubber trees, seen only in the northeast region.

These roots are trained by the Khasis to grow in such a manner as be in the form of bridges on the top of a river. The most popular tourist attraction of Cherrapunjee, these double decker living root bridges are 2 bridges that are stacked one on the other, made because of the entanglement of roots. Climbing down 3200 steps was worth it! 

Next is The Wei Sawdong Waterfall. The route to the bottom of the waterfalls is mostly bamboo bridges, stairs, and mud. It is extremely dangerous so be sure to wear proper trekking shoes. When wet, the bamboo is slippery so a hiking stick may help. I was super scared but the view was breathtaking.
