Known as the &#8220;Abode of Clouds,&#8221; this land is home to the rain-soaked plateaus of Cherrapunjee, with cascading waterfalls plunging into lush valleys. Hike through ancient sacred groves, where towering trees tell the stories of the Khasi people and discover the living root bridges, natural wonders that have stood the test of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"die-lebenden-brucken-von-meghalaya\">The living bridges of Meghalaya<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Living root bridges are a remarkable example of sustainable engineering found primarily in the Khasi and Jaintia hills of Meghalaya. These bridges are made by training the roots of the rubber tree (Ficus elastica) to grow across rivers and ravines, creating natural, sturdy walkways. \r\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/13-Meghalaya-Living-Roots-Bridge-Mawlynong-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"A beautiful example of plant-architecture: Living Roots Bridge in Meghalaya\" class=\"wp-image-39967\" title=\"Bild\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/13-Meghalaya-Living-Roots-Bridge-Mawlynong-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/13-Meghalaya-Living-Roots-Bridge-Mawlynong-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/13-Meghalaya-Living-Roots-Bridge-Mawlynong-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/13-Meghalaya-Living-Roots-Bridge-Mawlynong-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/13-Meghalaya-Living-Roots-Bridge-Mawlynong.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">A beautiful example of plant-architecture: Living Roots Bridge in Meghalaya<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As you gaze from the cliffs of Cherrapunjee over the vast plains of Bangladesh, you will feel as if you are on the edge of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-6 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"39971\" src=\"https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/15-Khasi-Lady-Selling-Dried-Fish-Shillong-Market-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Khasi woman selling dried fish at the market in Shillong, Meghalaya\" class=\"wp-image-39971\" title=\"Bild\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/15-Khasi-Lady-Selling-Dried-Fish-Shillong-Market-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/15-Khasi-Lady-Selling-Dried-Fish-Shillong-Market-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/15-Khasi-Lady-Selling-Dried-Fish-Shillong-Market-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/15-Khasi-Lady-Selling-Dried-Fish-Shillong-Market.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Khasi woman selling dried fish at the market in Shillong, Meghalaya<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"39973\" src=\"https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/16-Khasi-Ladies-choosing-pineapple-at-Market-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Women from Meghalaya select pineapples at the local market\" class=\"wp-image-39973\" title=\"Bild\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/16-Khasi-Ladies-choosing-pineapple-at-Market-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/16-Khasi-Ladies-choosing-pineapple-at-Market-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/16-Khasi-Ladies-choosing-pineapple-at-Market-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/16-Khasi-Ladies-choosing-pineapple-at-Market.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Women from Meghalaya select pineapples at the local market<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"39975\" src=\"https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/17-Khasi-Lady-overlooking-Cherra-plateau-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Khasi Lady with a view of the Cherrapunjee plateau\" class=\"wp-image-39975\" title=\"Bild\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/17-Khasi-Lady-overlooking-Cherra-plateau-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/17-Khasi-Lady-overlooking-Cherra-plateau-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/17-Khasi-Lady-overlooking-Cherra-plateau-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/sikkim.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/17-Khasi-Lady-overlooking-Cherra-plateau.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Khasi Lady with a view of the Cherrapunjee plateau<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"shillong-hauptstadt-von-meghalaya-wo-tradition-auf-moderne-trifft\">Shillong, capital of Meghalaya: where tradition meets modernity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In Meghalaya&#8217;s capital Shillong you will discover a city where colonial charm meets the vibrancy of a modern community.
