Cherrapunjee - The Rain Capital of the World

Cherrapunjee is a small town

located on the southern edge
of Khasi Hills, a dissected
plateau at an altitude of about
4823 feet (1484 m) above
mean sea level. The
meteorological observatory is
situated at 4267 feet (1313
m) above MSL. Cherrapunjee
is locally and now officially
known as ‘SOHRA’. Khasi
people of Mon-Khmer origin
inhabit it. It is the
headquarters of Sohra Civil
Sub-Division and falls in East
Khasi Hills District of the
Indian State of Meghalaya.
Meghalaya is one of the seven
states of North East India with
Assam to its North and
sharing an international
border with Bangladesh on its
South.
Living Root Bridges -
Cherrapunji
The lower reaches of the southern
slopes of Khasi and Jaintia hills
are humid and warm and are
streaked by many swift flowing
rivers and mountain streams. A
species of Indian Rubber tree -
botanical name: Ficus elastica -
thrives and flourishes alongside
these streams and rivers. This
tree can comfortably perch itself
on huge boulders along side the
riverbanks or in the middle of
rivers and send its roots down to
the riverbed. Thus, they have
adapted themselves very well to
high soil erosion caused by these
fast flowing rivers and streams
that come down about 3000 feet
along precipitous slopes. These
trees shoot out many secondary
roots from their trunks.
