My First Impression about Shillong

When I reached Shillong city, I was wondering Northeast has his own beauty. I was impressed to see the cleanness of this city and I never visited any cities as of now clean like Shillong and I rated this city 10/10 for cleanness.If anyone has any other cities names, please suggest me I will try to visit those cities and share the experiences with you all. Peoples were very helpful and well behaved.

Different faces with different style

Day 1 :-

I reached Shillong in the evening so, I only visited Police Bazar, Bread Café & Mary Help of Christians Cathedral, Shillong

I suggest If you visit police bazar try street food like Kabab and Jadoh(It is a mixture of rice with pork or sometimes cooked with chicken and fish. It includes spices like onions, garlic, turmeric, and ginger, it gives you a slight taste of Biryani but less spicy.

I rated this bazar 8.5/10.

Day 2 :-Most awaited place in my travel box was Cherrapunjee

My target was to cover Mawsmai Cave and Double decker root bridge.

I started my journey to Cherrapunjee early morning from Shillong, I suggest if you are going Cherrapunjee from Shillong there is a small restaurant near Mawkdok Dympep Valley View Point, must eat boil scrambled egg Maggi with a fried omelette and bread.

Mawkdok Dympep view point.

I headed towards my next targated destination Mawsmai Cave.

Mawsmai Cave:- Located in Cherrapunjee, Meghalaya

You have to pay some amount around INR20 for each person ,really the cave passage was very narrow, dimlight in the cave, passages were unstructured however experience was good.

I was thinking I’m a bear and after a long time, I came out from the cave for food.

Double Decker Living Root Bridge:- Located in Nongriat, Tyrna, Cherrapunjee, Meghalaya

This is one of the most famous tourist spots If you will visit Shillong and missed this placed to visit then your trip was incomplete.

Home stay facilities were available , If you want to complete this trek within 1 day you can complete it.

If you want to park your vehicles parking option is there on the starting point of this trek.

Entry and camera fees are payable at the double-decker root bridge. Don’t throw the waste anywhere because the local Khasi people are very attentive of their environment and valley and maintaining its cleanliness.

Path:- Double-decker root bridge was approx three kilometres long and there were approximately 3500 stairs.

It’s a milestone for all smoker to check their fitness how much fit they are.

Trek is divided into three parts the most challenging part is the first part, down the hill to Nongthymmai village (where the longest root bridge, Ritymmen, is located).

From Nongthymmai it takes at least another hour to reach the double-decker root bridge.

Last two parts of this trek which include crossing narrow steel suspension bridges over raging rivers.

After completion of my targeted destination Double decker bridge, I came to know about secret waterfalls(Rainbow falls) which was approx 1 h 30 mins from Double decker bridge.

How can I explain to you the waterfall was amazing and my eyes were appreciating me to take them into heaven.
