53 KM from city Shillong

Perched on the razor-sharp ridges of a massive mountain wall, Cherrapunjee sits at the edge of the Himalayas, overlooking the flat plains of Bangladesh. 🏔️ This charming village was once the wettest place on Earth due to its heavy monsoon rains. 🌧️

The road from Shillong to Cherrapunjee offers stunning scenery, especially at the Dympep viewpoint, where you’ll see a picturesque V-shaped valley. 📸

Cherrapunjee’s lush greenery gives it the nickname ‘Scotland of the East.’ 🌿 Nohkalikai Falls are particularly impressive during the monsoon, with water volume increasing twentyfold. 🌊 You can view these falls from a plateau near Sohra market, easily reached by local taxi. 🚖

The area also features ‘Grand Canyon’-like gorges that lead down into the tropical forests, adding to its dramatic beauty. 🌲🏞️
