Hope you enjoyed the video, we absolutely loved travelling here! This was filmed back in March during the dry season. Leave us a comment below if you enjoyed it! 😊
The root bridge at SIEJ village was constructed by a resident of the village Mr. Halley War. It was documented in the BBC series RIVERS: HOW THEY MADE US.
That's false information. I do not understand why we feel so privileged to say that we speak english very well and in this case you're claiming english to be the official language and it is very disheartening. We should be proud of our culture, it is absolutely okay if you speak or don't speak english, what matters is our manner and ethics.
The fall is named Noh-ka-likai falls because of a folktale in which a woman named Likai jumped into it(the falls) after she ate food without knowing that what she ate was actually her daughter which had been cut into pieces and cooked by her husband.
As a north easterner I can confirm that Most of the north eastern people does not clickin picture with tourist and a north easterner not talking to you in Hindi if you start the convo in English...As I came across many videos I saw those people mostly are from outside north east.
@@willandmaddiewe northeastern people majority don't click pictures with tourist like mainland indian people's also we look different but meghalaya people's look southeast and here people from my area arunachal pradesh look east asian like chinese korean
Amazing escapades @Will and Maddie. Garden of caves is amazing. Also, visit the Krangshuri, Phe phe and Wei Sawdong falls. They are awesome. Welcome to the "Scotland of the East"💕💕🩷🩷🎄🎄
Why I'm watching this video because you're showing hidden gems of India. Otherwise most of the foreigners show crowded cities of India. It seems going to northeastern India is worth it. Would like to watch more videos. Thanks for visiting and showing this beautiful place. 😍
There are 1,580 Caves have been identified so far in Meghalaya State of India, of which 980 caves have explored so far, hence Meghalaya is also known as "Land of Caves". Krem Liat Prah Cave in Meghalaya State is the longest cave in India. Krem Chympe, Wari Chora and Krang Suri are three beautiful Cave Waterfalls in Meghalaya State. Mawsynram near Cherrapunji is the wettest place on earth. Laitlum Canyon at Smit Town in Meghalaya State is lesser explored paradise. Mawphanlur Lake, Nongkhnum river island and Wah Rilang Green Desert are some breathtaking bucket list destinations in Meghalaya State of India. So there is there so much explore in Meghalaya State, hence incase if yours time permits do visit these places. India is very diverse in terms of geographical topography, vegetations and seasons. From Snow Capped Mountains, Rocky Hills, Lush Green table Mountains to Plateau and from Lakes, Waterfalls, Lagoons to Sandy Clay, Red and Salt White Deserts to Caves, Canyon, Gorges to Beaches, Coral and River Islands, everything exist in this vast country. Wonderful Vlog. Keep Exploring India. Take Care😊
Umkar is one of the best root bridges that not many visit. By the way Dawki is a border town not a river. The root bridges take about 40-50 years to be built. A father starts one for the use of his son & grandchildren. Also the bridges are used even now after concrete since these are flexible structures which is important when the gush of water falling down in such velocity will just wash away everything concrete in its path. By the way you should visit Meghalaya again as you had missed out quite a number of places
The best journey is the compass less pointed. I made that up but maybe it's a thing. Looks amazing. I'm guessing both, for the reason for your fame and photos 😂❤
Im glad you visited meghalaya.Usually foreigners visit cities like Mumbai,delhi,agra and consider that whole India is unhygienic.India has other beautiful and hygiene parts too like shimla and many more .Btw banglore is one of the modern city in India..
Meghalaya was beautiful, we can only imagine what the waterfalls and greenery would be like in the wet season. We had to change our plans so never got to Bangalore unfortunately. Thanks for watching!
You guys visit meghalaya in wrong season believe in moonsoon meghalaya feels like another planet , the whole region filled with infinity waterfalls and canyons, jungles

guys i am really happy and feel good about u guys having a great time here in the northeast of India here I am wishing and praying you guys have a great time travelling not just here in India but around the world. ok this video was shot way back in the month of march so one question for u guys is that have u visited Tripura and if u did may I know the over all experiences you can tell me worst what u feel u know what I meant that genuine question you have in ur mind while your stay in Tripura I will do my best to tell the most genuine appropriate response base on the questions thank you. i believe you guys would have a lot of stories to tell back home to ur family and friends later when u have kids and grand kids peace out guys✌
You experienced that you struggle with communication but English is our official language, Khasei is Associate Language. Thank you for visiting our homeland. I live for living in Guwahati 36, Assam.
Thanks visiting northeast part of india.. . India is hussle bussle please do except it and move on you will fine differents in every 50km ahead that is the culture of india..
I stumbled upon your videos by accident. Had something to do with Momos. You guys have beautiful content, attitude and humility. You will go a long ways. Love from Canada.
I look forward to more interesting and inspirational videos. I am Canadian Of Indian origin so these videos do resonate with me. We have a lot of Aussies and Kiwis here in Vancouver. I wish you two the best and good positive things in life.
You guys are doing great ! North East is mostly unexplored part of India and not very hectic compared to other parts. Just a suggestion stop using the generic indian background music, your videos will stand out from the rest of international tourist 👍
We put both names in the caption for this reason but called it Cherapunji as lot of the maps/street signs called it this. We try to use the correct name where we can. Thanks for watching!

Don't use sitar and tabla music in Meghalaya. You can use Jingeidd uff ka Jingeidd song in background. The official language of Meghalaya is Khasi. Also try Khasi grilled pork and Jadoh. During Covid pandemic I discovered the music of Mizoram. I watched videos in Zorimawi and MDM channel and fell in love with their music. Mizoram music is like 1970s USA music. My top 10 Mizo songs are the following: 1) Kimkima: I zun ngaih lunglen (2019), I made my dad hear Kimkima and he told me that he was like Lobo. 2) K Hminga and Sangtei Khuptong: Awm lo Tala (2020). K Hminga is like Mark Knopfler. 3) Cassettes: E Khai (2021), this song is like Elmore James or John Lee Hooker song. 4) Zaii Hauchhum and Vanlalhmaingha: Hmaingaihte Hmangaihna (2022), this sounded like Bonnie Raitt and BB King. 5) Saiwanah and Mary Dawngi: Ka Pa Khuma (2023), my favorite song from 2023. It sounded like Stevie Nicks and Lindsey Buckingham song Chain 6) The Radio: Hellai Lungrun (2024), this song is like Lyin' Eyes by Eagles. 7) Mami Varte: Damlai Par (2007) 8) C Sanga: Tawmang Lasi (2007) 9) Elizabeth Zodinpuii: Valmawi (2005) 10) Michelle Varte: Nachhawkna (2022), this song was like Kylie Minogue of 1980s something like Put your hand on your heart.
The official language of Meghalaya is English , along with khasi and Garo . Hardly a small percentage speaks hindi . Meghalaya is dominated by two tribes Khasis and Garo .khasi belongs to the Monkhmer race from SEAsia and Garo are Tibeto Burman origin . Also Meghalaya is the only Matrillineal state in India .
If you were referring to the caption that popped, up that was a mistake and was a subtitle for a clip that didn't make it into the final cut. Thanks for watching!
Guys don't called cherrapunjee it's Sohra the actual name. Your intro music sound so Indian which we don't even listen in this part of India. We have are our own music and sound

Will n maddie don't call cherapunji because the original name is call SOHRA. Only the main land people they name cherapunji
Khasi people speak english more than Hindi ... they're just shy...and they won't ask for pics with any tourist unless extreme cases
Come to Pynursla you will find village with the most Root Bridge. Anf the Village was also known as the Home of Living Root Bridge
Those are not locals..they are also tourist..the locals knows very well English as the official language of Meghalaya state is English
That's false information.

The drinking water in the garden of caves is really good. It reduces digestion problems and has natural minerals.
