Shillong /Elephant Falls

We started after an early breakfast for the next destination as per our itinerary. The place we visited on this day was as follows:

Elephant Falls

Which is Located in the Upper Shillong and 10 kms away from the Shillong town it is  one of the majestic waterfalls in Meghalaya. The water of this three steps falls comes down in flows from different levels over the fern-covered rocks and falls into the canyon down below.

In the morning it forms a wonderful sight when the sun rays fall on the cascades of water creating the rainbow colors. The best time to visit the waterfalls is during the monsoon when it offers breath-taking scenery. 

The forests covered with ferns and thick bamboo grooves are also worth visited for the nature lovers to find the presence of various species of butterflies, birds and orchids. We were filled with awe looking at this waterfalls, took pictures, it was drizzling and the weather was cold and breezy, which help us staying active and fresh despite all the walks.

There are also plenty of shops for the tourists, one can pick up shawls, coats, mufflers, key chains and plenty of junk jewellery for women who love to adorn. We spent some time and then headed towards the next place of visit. Feeling blessed and reliving these moments has doubled my gratitude for everything in my life :)
