Meghalaya

Sacred Forest of the Khasi tribe — 1,000-year-old untouched grove where nothing can be removed, not even a leaf.

Asia's cleanest village — bamboo dustbins, living root bridges, and a community that shames cities.

The Scotland of the East — live music, pine forests, waterfalls, and the best cafe culture in Northeast India.

Where clouds live — living root bridges, Nohkalikai Falls, and one of the wettest places on Earth.

Crystal-clear Umngot River — where boats appear to float on glass at the India-Bangladesh border.

The actual wettest place on Earth — where umbrellas are a way of life and every surface drips green.

Double Decker Living Root Bridge — only accessible by 3,500-step trek down into the valley. World-famous natural wonder grown by Khasi tribe over centuries.

Crystal-clear Umngot River camping village — cliff jumping, kayaking, snorkeling in glass-clear water. The adventure version of Dawki.

Gateway to Garo Hills — Nokrek Biosphere Reserve (red pandas, citrus gene bank), Siju Cave (bats + limestone), and Wangala harvest festival.
