Meghalaya, which literally means "the abode of clouds," is often recognized as one of India's most beautiful states. Swiftly running streams and crystal-clear rivers wind through the rugged terrain, and the numerous cascading waterfalls and tranquil lakes are breathtaking. Meghalaya is home to the Khasi, Jaintia, and Garo tribes. These tribes have managed to preserve their distinct traditions and culture. Meghalaya's natural beauty, healthy climate, and distinctive vegetation make it a haven for nature enthusiasts and botanists. Exotic flora and fauna abound in the lush jungles.
