Meghalaya is famous for its tropical rainforests, and Mawphlang Sacred Forest is one of the most popular and revered. 🌳🌿 This forest is a nature lover’s dream, with plants and trees over 1,000 years old.

But it’s not just the biodiversity that makes Mawphlang special. The locals believe the forest is home to a deity named Labasa, who appears as a tiger or leopard and protects the community. 🐅🙏 This sacredness adds to the forest’s unique charm.
