Overview

Meghalaya Kaziranga Tour Package

Kaziranga (Meghalaya Kaziranga Tour) :

A sanctuary where nature dances in harmony, Kaziranga is located in the center of Assam. Here, beautiful elephants walk freely, their peaceful presence adorning the scene as the grass sways to the rhythm of the breeze. The sound of birdsong fills the air, resonating through the verdant foliage. The serene lakes where rhinos bathe are bathed in a golden glow as the sun sets, causing the sky to blush with orange and pink hues. Kaziranga is more than just a location; it's a peaceful haven where each heartbeat seems to be synchronized with the earth's pulse.

Double Decker Bridge (Meghalaya Kaziranga Tour) :

Located in the thick tropical forest of Meghalaya, cloaked with rain during most of the year, are the fantastic man-made natural wonders of the living root bridges. Created by the people of the Khasi tribe, these roots grow from the ancient rubber trees, seen only in the northeast region. These roots are trained by the Khasis to grow in such a manner as be in the form of bridges on the top of a river. These bridges are an amazing alternative to wooden bridges that dwindle with so much rain falling on them. The most popular tourist attraction of Cherrapunjee, these double-decker living root bridges are 2 bridges that are stacked one on the other, made because of the entanglement of roots.

A new root bridge takes about 15 years to get strong enough so that it can bear the weight of people who would be crossing it. Over a span of next few years, the roots become even stronger. It is believed that some of the root bridges are over five hundred years old. The most popular one is Umshiang Double-Decker Root Bridge. Not built but grown, these living root bridges are like an astonishment and are absolutely unique.

Meghalaya Kaziranga Tour

Mawlynnong (Meghalaya Kaziranga Tour) :

Mawlynnong has earned a reputation for being one of the cleanest villages in Asia, but a sobriquet that does more justice is that of God’s Own Garden. The fruit orchards, the rushing streams, the evergreen surroundings, the swaying palms, and the well-preserved traditions of the Khasis provide a picture-perfect stage on the edge of Meghalaya’s southern ranges.

Arguably the most famous icon of Meghalaya is found here – the Nohwet Living Root Bridge. The bridge was created by weaving the roots of the Ficus Elastica tree around a framework and continuing this process for generations. These living root bridges are a staple of Khasi traditional architecture and were important for the villages in the steep valleys and mountains, helping the people connect with each other and travel to the plains to trade. The living root bridge of Nohwet is not the only main attraction here. The Church of the Epiphany in Mawlynnong is more than a century old, a beautiful piece of European architecture tucked in the middle of this lush and verdant tropical paradise. Taste your fear of heights and climb up the tree houses close to the church. From these bamboo structures, you can gaze at the seemingly endless plains of Bangladesh that lay just beyond.

Nohkalikai waterfall (Meghalaya Kaziranga Tour) :

The most dramatic and highest plunge waterfall in India is Nohkalikai Falls, which is located around 7.5 kilometres from Cherrapunji (Sohra) in the East Khasi Hills District of Meghalaya. Nohkalikai Falls should and must be included in your Meghalaya itinerary. Nohkalikai literally means “Jump of Ka Likai,” where “Noh” means “jump,” “Ka” is a feminine prefix, and “Likai” is the name of the Khasi woman who inspired the terrifying legend. Nohkalikai is one of the world’s highest waterfalls, with a plunge of around 340 metres. The sight of falls plunging into a stunning blue lake from red-rock cliffs surrounded by lush greenery makes visitors’ jaws drop. With time and season, the pool at the base of the falls changes colour from blue to green to aqua
