1. Cheraapunji: Cherrapunji in Meghalaya is one of the wettest places on the planet and the only place in India to receive rain throughout the year. Cherrapunji is famous for its living root bridges, a result of bio-engineering practiced by the locals. The bridges can bear 50 people at a time and are spectacular to watch (though the one-of-its-kind double-decker root bridge requires at least a few hours of trekking)

2. Shillong :Shillong is an ethereal hill station in Northeast India's state of Meghalaya.Shillong is famous for its green fields, misty mountains, gorgeous vistas, fragrant flowers and a faint trace of colonial friendliness and influence is also known for its emerging café culture.

Half the distance is covered by steps going downhill. Then there is a jungle path going along the sides of the hill leading to the Living Root Bridge with a few steps after short stretches of sloping foot path. Moss thrives on these sandstone steps during the monsoon and makes them slippery, hence one need to be extra careful.
