Q1: What is the best time to visit Meghalaya?

The best time to visit Meghalaya is during the months of October to April when the weather is pleasant and ideal for sightseeing. This period also coincides with the dry season, making it easier to explore the lush landscapes and picturesque waterfalls. However, be prepared for occasional showers even during the dry season due to the region's tropical climate. Avoid the monsoon season from May to September when heavy rains can lead to landslides and road closures.

Q2: Do I need a visa to travel to Meghalaya?

Foreign tourists traveling to Meghalaya will need a valid Indian visa. It is recommended to check the specific visa requirements based on your nationality before planning your trip. Citizens of some countries may be eligible for e-Visas or visa-on-arrival facilities. Make sure to have your passport with a minimum validity of six months from the date of entry into India.

Q3: What are the must-visit attractions in Meghalaya?

Meghalaya is known for its stunning natural beauty and unique attractions. Don't miss the living root bridges in Cherrapunji and Mawlynnong, the cleanest village in Asia. Explore the Nohkalikai Falls, the tallest plunge waterfall in India, and the Mawphlang Sacred Forest for a spiritual experience. Visit the Dawki River for its crystal-clear waters and go caving in the Mawsmai Caves. Experience the local culture at the Wangala Festival and witness the beauty of the Shillong Peak for panoramic views of the surrounding hills.

Q4: Is Meghalaya a safe place to travel?

Meghalaya is generally a safe destination for travelers. However, it is advisable to exercise caution, especially while exploring remote areas or trekking in the hills. Avoid traveling alone at night and be aware of your surroundings. It is recommended to respect the local customs and traditions to ensure a pleasant and safe travel experience. Like any other destination, petty theft can occur, so keep your belongings secure and be mindful of your surroundings.

Q5: What is the local currency in Meghalaya and can I use credit cards?

The local currency in Meghalaya, as in the rest of India, is the Indian Rupee (INR). While major cities and tourist areas may accept credit cards, it is advisable to carry cash for smaller establishments and markets. ATMs are available in urban centers like Shillong and Tura, but may be limited in rural areas. Inform your bank about your travel plans to avoid any issues with card usage and currency exchange.

Q6: What is the local cuisine like in Meghalaya?

Meghalayan cuisine is known for its unique flavors and use of local ingredients. Try Jadoh, a traditional Khasi dish of rice cooked with meat and spices, or the popular Nakham Bitchi made with fermented soybeans. Don't miss out on the taste of Dohneiiong, a pork curry flavored with black sesame seeds, or the refreshing Tungrymbai, a spicy chutney made from fermented soybeans. Vegetarians can enjoy dishes like Jadoh with Daineiiong, a combination of rice and lentils cooked with spicy chutney. Embrace the local flavors and savor the culinary delights of Meghalaya.

Q7: What transportation options are available in Meghalaya?

In Meghalaya, travelers can choose from various transportation options to explore the region. Public buses and shared taxis are common modes of transport for inter-city travel, offering an affordable way to get around. Private taxis and rental cars are also available for more convenience and flexibility, especially for visiting remote areas. Motorbikes can be rented in certain places for an adventurous way to explore the scenic landscapes. Additionally, auto-rickshaws and cycle rickshaws are available for short distances within towns. Enjoy the picturesque drives through the rolling hills and lush valleys of Meghalaya.

Q8: Are there any cultural norms or etiquette I should be aware of when visiting Meghalaya?

When visiting Meghalaya, it is important to respect the local customs and traditions of the indigenous tribes. Dress modestly, especially when visiting religious sites or attending cultural events. Seek permission before taking photographs of locals, as some may consider it intrusive. Greet people with a smile and show interest in their culture to build rapport. Avoid touching someone's head, as it is considered disrespectful in the local customs. It is customary to remove your shoes before entering someone's home or a place of worship. Embrace the warm hospitality of the Meghalayan people and engage with the community to enrich your travel experience.
