Tourist Places in Meghalaya

 Meghalaya Tourism

Meghalaya, the home of the clouds, is one of the most beautiful states in the north-east India offering a variety of sights, activities, food and festivals to the tourists. Well known for Cherapunjji, Meghalaya can mesmerise your hills, valleys, lakes, caves and waterfalls which give it a beautiful look when covered with beautiful clouds.



Best Time to Visit
Meghalaya is best visited between October and June. Most tourist destinations in the state receive temperatures that rarely go beyond 30°C, making it a perfect escape between March and June which is the summer season in the country. It is also a favourite during autumn and winters, i.e. from October to November and December to February amongst tourists who come from high or moderate temperature zones. Considered the wettest region in the country, Meghalaya is not often recommended to tourists during peak monsoons. The state receives an average rainfall of 250 cm. The season begins in May and goes on till the end of September or sometimes till mid-October. One can, however, explore the beautiful state in the beginning or by the end of the monsoon season when the rains are not heavy and the terrain is mesmerisingly beautiful.
