Isnt that worth a screensaver!<\/p><\/div>\n
Mist and cloud hugging past you, vast green meadows and thick green forests vying with each other, piercing buzzing of the jungle, wild fragrances of bamboo and ginger – Khasi hills is an explosion to all senses, if you let them open up.<\/p>\n
Meghalaya derives its name from the clouds – Abode of clouds. And clouds are the first thing that struck me through out the journey. Cottony clouds set against the stark blue skies; clouds that looks almost touchable, and the mist enveloping beautiful hills that lay like a huge peacock-green saree left to dry on two lines. And we had a leisurely itinerary for 3 days: the wettest place on earth (formerly), the cleanest village in Asia, and a transparent lake. Simple.

Cherrapunjee<\/strong>
\nCherrapunjee or Sohra recently lost its title as the wettest place on earth to its neighbor Mawsynnram. However the place is still beautiful and its waterfalls are a treat to the eyes. I was not fortunate to see the rains in there, but then that allowed me to enjoy the beauty of the mist and waterfalls.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
