Meghalaya

Living root bridges, Asia’s wettest plateaus, and Khasi music culture turn Meghalaya into a waterfall-chasing, cave-exploring adventure.

Double-decker root bridges near Nongriat require steep descents—hire local guides and start early. November–April is drier for trekking; monsoon showcases falls at full power but complicates roads. Respect community-owned tourism fees. Guwahati airport is the main entry; night drives in fog demand caution. Try jadoh pork rice and smoky bamboo preparations.
