About
Once the wettest place on Earth (now contested with Mawsynram nearby). The double-decker living root bridges of Nongriat village — grown from ficus tree roots over generations — are an extraordinary feat of Khasi bio-engineering. Nohkalikai Falls (India's tallest plunge) and Seven Sisters Falls are here.
