Meghalaya: Living Root Bridges
The abode of clouds, greenest of them all.

The wettest, greenest corner of India. From Shillong we ride to Cherrapunji and the living root bridges grown over generations, the crystal-clear Umngot river at Dawki, and the 'cleanest village in Asia' at Mawlynnong. Misty pine hills, deep gorges, and roads that vanish into cloud — the Northeast at its most magical.
