Cherrapunji is a small town situated in East Khasi Hill District in Indian State of Meghayala. It's ironically known as the wettest place in the earth. The cliffs of Cherrapunji receive heavy rainfall due to monsoon winds blowing from the bay of Bengal.
It made a world record of 1,041 inches of rain in 1861. North eastern part of India is full of natural treasures with lush green canopies, valleys, mountains, rocky hills, rivers, diverse flora and fauna.Orchards of oranges and pineapple are the common sight of Cherrapunji. It is a 60 kilometer drive from the state’s capital Shillong, and is situated 1290 meters above sea level.
Here the bridges aren't built but they're grown in their own, unbelievable right?? This is the awesome bio-engineering of the living bridges of Cherrapunji.
