Dainthlen Falls in Cherrapunji, Meghalaya

Just before reaching Sohra, a road to the right, leads one to the falls which is 5 kms away. The waterfall derives its name from a Thlen or a snake of gigantic size which dwelt in a cave. Legend has it that the people destroyed the snake in order to rid themselves of its reign of terror. Adjacent to the very spot where the Thlen was slaughtered lies the Dain-thlen Waterfalls. Natural rock carvings of the epi­sode draw visitors to see the image of the Thlen, the symbol of greed, cor­ruption and evil.

Ka Khoh Ramhah or Motrop in Cherrapunjee, Meghalaya is an imposing single rock formation in the shape of a giant cone or Shiva Linga. It lies in close proximity to two other very similar rocks standing like a pair of giant sentinels. During the heavy monsoons, water flows between the two rocks and the cascading waterfall presents a breathtaking sight. This is a popular picnic spot.

Sohra market in Cherrapunji

The magic of market day at Sohra/Cherrapunji is something to be experienced by a tourist. It is not just a market place to buy and sell products but it is a socializing event.

Cherrapunji was initially named as Sohra, pronounced as Churra by the British. But however now again the government of Meghalaya is decided to refer Cherrapunji by its original name. There are evidences for this place being under the British for a period like one can see the monument of David Scott who was the British Administrator in NE India, 1802–31.Though the place receive rainfall throughout the year irrigation is not possible here because of heavy rain the topsoil is washed away and as a result of this you can see encroachment of the people into the forest.

The word Cherrapunji means 'land of oranges'. Despite perennial rainfall, Cherrapunji faces an acute water shortage and the inhabitants often have to trek for miles to obtain potable water. The Meghalaya state government has renamed Cherrapunjee back to its original name, Sohra. The history of the Khasis – the inhabitants of Cherrapunji – may be traced from the early part of the 16th century. Between the 16th and 18th centuries these people were ruled by the 'Syiems (rajas or chiefs) of Khyriem' in the Khasi hills. The Khasi hills came under British authority in 1883 with the submission of the last of the important syiems, Tirot Singh.

Cherrapunjee’s original name is ‘Sohrapoonjee’. ‘Poonjee’ refers to the head village where the seat of power of the Chieftain is. The English who ruled over this place from 1830-1947 could not pronounce ‘Sohrapoonjee’ correctly and as was typical of them named it ‘Cherrapunjee’. People who do not know the origin of the name also spell Cherrapunjee as ‘Cherrapunji’. Popular usage is Cherrapunjee, while we the people of the place continue to call it ‘Sohra’ only. Some old colonial period writings refer it as ‘Chirra’ too.

Sohra Don Bosco Shrine in Cherrapunjee, Meghalaya

Don Bosco Shrine located at Maraikaphon, Sohra. This is the only Shrine in all India dedicated to Don Bosco.

Cherrapunji stands out as the centre of Khasi culture and society. The numerous neoliths and megaliths (known in the Khasi language as ‘mawbynna’) honouring the dead, speak volumes on the bygone splendour of the kingdom. The innumerable Khasi songs and folklore which have their origin and setting in Cherrapunji point to a chequered history of culture, art, literature, dance and religion. Even today, the social fabric which constitutes Khasi life look to Cherrapunji for inspiration and guidance. If one would discover all that is best in the Khasi culture and tradition, one must turn to Cherrapunji.

Christianity was first brought to Sohra kingdom in 1813 by Krishna Chanora Pal, a missionary from Serampore, sent by William Carey. Duwan and Anna, it is believed were the first Khasi converts to Christianity. Chandra Pal returned to Serampore after six months and only in 1832 did the next missionary, Alexander B. Lesh, arrive in Cherrapunji, where he took up residence, the first missionary to do so. In the following year Cherrapunji became the British administrative capital of Assam. Lesh opened schools in Cherrapunji, Mawsmai and Mawmluh, but in 1838 heleft the Khasi Hills, thus ending the Baptist presence there. Though the Baptist did not stay long, their contribution was lasting. As early as 1874 William Carey brought out the “Khashee New Testament”, using the Bengali script as Khasi had yet not script of its own.In 1841 Thomas Jones and his wife, Presbyterian missionary arrived in Cherrapunji. It was Jones who adapted the Roman script to the Khasi language, which was till then unwritten. In 1891 the Presbyterians brought out the Khasi Bible.

Nohkalikai Falls in Cherapunji - Tallest plunge waterfall in India

Nohkalikai Falls is the tallest plunge waterfall in India with a height of 1100 feet located near Cherrapunji, one of the wettest places on Earth. Nohkalikai Falls are fed by the rainwater collected on the summit of comparatively small plateau and decrease in power during the dry season in December - February. Below the falls there has formed a plunge pool with unusual green colored water.

Cherapunji also called Sohra, Cherrapunjee and Charrapunji, is a town in East Khasi Hills district in the Indian state of Meghalaya. It is credited as being the wettest place on Earth. However, nearby Mawsynram has more rainfall nowadays, and both are surpassed by Lloró, Colombia. Today, climatic changes have edged Cherrapunji out of the topmost 'wet' slot, but it still retains its pristine beauty, its unusual facets, the perpetual clouds, and the perpetual mists. Appropriately, Cherrapunji lies in the heart of the State of Meghalaya-the abode of clouds. It is the traditional capital of a hima which is a Khasi tribal chieftainship constituting a petty state known as Sohra or Churra. High above misty valleys and foaming rivers, ensconced in swirling clouds and perched on an escarpment, lies Cherrapunji (4,500 feet).

Cherrapunji receives rains from the Bay of Bengal arm of the Indian summer monsoon. The monsoon clouds fly unhindered over the plains of Bangladesh for about 400 km. Thereafter, they hit the Khasi Hills which rise abruptly from the plains to a height of about 1370 m above mean sea level within 2 to 5 km. The winds push the rain clouds through these gorges and up the steep slopes. The rapid ascent of the clouds into the upper atmosphere hastens the cooling and helps vapours to condense. Most of Cherrapunji's rain is the result of air being lifted as a large body of water vapour. The extreme amount of rainfall at Cherrapunji is perhaps the best-known feature of orographic rain in northeast India.

The home of enterprising Khasi clans, Cherrapunji's place in the Guinness Book of Records is not its only claim to fame. Along with falls lesser in height but no less alluring, the spectacular, cascading 1,035-ft-high Mawsmai Falls-the fourth highest in India-lie just a few kilometers beyond Cherrapunji. Close by is situated a fascinating labyrinth of underground passages beneath age-old caves-a veritable dream for amateur explorers. Elsewhere around Cherrapunji, Khasi monoliths (stones in memory of their ancestors) lie dotted around-a vague reminder of the forests of Bastar. Cherrapunji has several comfortable private hotels. Staying at the Circuit House and the Dak Bungalow require prior permission from the administration. Cherrapunji is 58 km from Shillong, the capital of Meghalaya. A steep motorable road, almost perpetually bathed in mist as it climbs upwards on the last lap, leads up to Cherrapunji. Buses and taxis ply to Cherrapunji from Shillong.

Dain Thlen Falls is also one of the famous falls. Many tourists flock the falls especially as it has an interesting legend associated with it. The waterfall derives its name from a Thlen (Khasi word for Python). As per the legend, people decided to rid themselves of evil, captured the Thlen and killed it at the wide flat rock over-looking the waterfall. Adjacent to the very spot where the Thlen was slaughtered lies the Dain-thlen Waterfalls. Natural rock carvings of the episode draw visitors to see the image of the Thlen, the symbol of greed, corruption and evil.

This place is out of the way and requires a bit of trekking/cycling to get there. It is tucked in some remote corner and is overgrown with foliage. You can even miss the path leading to the falls. It is a sight to behold - two huge waterfalls and a clear blue pool. Not for the faint-hearted.

Trek to Nohkalikai Falls - Meghalaya | Tallest Waterfall in India | GoPro HD

So it was just another morning in cherrapunji,roaming around seven sisters fall and then we saw an ice-cream shop and decided to take a break. The ice-cream vender told us that you guys can go for a trek to Nohkalikai Fall,it is the tallest waterfall in India. We liked the name and got a cab to the fall and when we reached the fall we saw there was a view point from where everybody was enjoying the view but something was not right we were not here for this. So i decided to search a way to get to the fall. And then we found a staircase that can lead us to the bottom of the fall but those stairs ended up halfway and people saying that this way is going no where but we continued our trek and after 2-3 river crossings and hard trek though the dense forest Yess We reached the Giantt Nohkalikai Falls. It was amazing and was a different feeling to get there.

Thankyou
