Once the first rays of the sun barge into your room to let you know that the day is fresh and new, we will start our day with palatable local breakfast and then proceed to the wettest place on Earth, Cherrapunji.On the way, we shall visit, Mawphlang Sacred Forest, spread across 78 hectares of land and protected by the local deity-Labasa and Lyngdoh clan for more than 1000 years. Cutting down any tree or branch here is taboo. The forest is treasure trove of 450 species of trees and plants as well as rare species of animals and birds. It is also home to several species of trees that work as climate indicators, such as the Japanese blue oak and griffitti. There are medicinal trees and plants like the English yew, the Chinese suÂmac, chinquapin, etc.We will continue our journey towards Cherrapunji. High above misty valleys and foaming rivers ensconced in swirling clouds and perched on an escarpment, Cherrapunji lies at 4,500 feet above sea level. This stunning location with year-round rain earned coveted entry long ago into the Guinness Book of World Records as the wettest place on earth, where the rainfall is generally recorded in feet rather than in millimeters. This pristine land with ever-lasting beauty, is perhaps the only place in India, which has just one season - the monsoon. Rainfall varies from heavy, medium to light, but there is no month without rain. Another surprising fact about Cherrapunji is that, it rains mostly at night. Day -to-day activities do not get disrupted by the rain.Post lunch, you have an option of discovering the Mawsmai cave on a guided walk. This cave is 820 feet long which is lit up with halogen lamps, which are awe-inspiring, spine-tingling and mysterious. It is definitely a thrilling and magical experience to have a peek at the underground world. We shall stay at Cherrapunji.
