Placed around the heart of Khasi, Gharo, and Jaintia( the eastern-lower Himalayan hill-range), Meghalaya state is existing surreally from the rest of the world. When we talk about Meghalaya, two things suddenly come into our mind, the highest rain and cleanest state. But do you know that it treasures a lot more for one keen wanderer if one wants to absorb the real natural beauty? Yes, that’s why Meghalaya should be the first choice before opting for any adventure travel packages.

Meghalaya means “the abode of clouds” in Sanskrit. The mountainous sculpture of Meghalaya with Archean rock formation makes it more unique. Be it wonderful cloud-studded peaks or be it shadowed creeks, be it colourful hills or be it verdant valleys, be it rivers with crystal-clear water of various colours or be it the caves made up from the large rocks, be it countless waterfalls or be it silent streams of water, be it living root bridges or be it ingeniously made bridges in the dense forest, be it entirely silent terrains or be it green deserts, be it mesmerizing scenery all the way or be it breath-taking weather all the day. This is all about Meghalaya- a plinth to peace and a nest of nature which definitely could plunge you with adrenaline in a simple way. Adventure Travel Packages are not even enough to give a real insight into Meghalaya.
