GUWAHATI KAMAKYA
Kamakhya is a locality in Guwahati, Assam, which is 20 kilometres
from the Guwahati Airport and about 6 km from Guwahati Railway Station, it also
has own railway junction called Kamakhya Junction.
Kamakhya is known for presence of ancient Kamakhya Temple in
Nilachal pahar or hill. Ambubachi Mela held here annually attracts pilgrimage
from other parts of country as well as from abroad. In February 2012, this area
came into limelight with the discovery of rock cut caves built during the reign
of Kamarupa king Mahendra Varman.
SHILLONG
Shillong is a hill station and the capital of Meghalaya, a
state in northeastern India. It is the headquarters of the East Khasi Hills
district. Shillong is the 330th most populous city in India with a population
of 143,229 according to the 2011 census.[7] It is said that the rolling hills
around the town reminded the British of Scotland. Hence, they would also refer
to it as the "Scotland of the East"
Shillong has steadily grown in size since it was made the
civil station of the Khasi and Jaintia Hills in 1864 by the British. In 1874,
on the formation of Assam as the Chief Commissioner's Province, it was chosen
as the headquarters of the new administration because of its convenient
location between the Brahmaputra and Surma valleys and more so because the
climate of Shillong was much cooler than tropical India. Shillong remained the
capital of undivided Assam until the creation of the new state of Meghalaya on
21 January 1972, when Shillong became the capital of Meghalaya, and Assam moved
its capital to Dispur in Guwahati.
The history of the Khasi people – native inhabitants of
Sohra– may be traced from the early part of the 16th century. Between the 16th
and 18th centuries, these people were ruled by their tribal 'Syiems (rajas or
chiefs) of Khyriem' in the Khasi Hills. The Khasi hills came under British
authority in 1833 with the submission of the last of the important Syiem, Tirot
Sing Syiem.[citation needed]
The main pivot on which the entire superstructure of Khasi
society rests is the matrilineal system.[
The original name for this town was Sohra (soh-ra), which
was pronounced "Cherra" by the British. This name eventually evolved
into a temporary name, Cherrapunji, meaning 'land of oranges', which was first
used by tourists from other parts of India. It has again been renamed to its
original form, Sohra.
Despite abundant rainfall, Sohra faces an acute water
shortage and the inhabitants often have to trek very long distances to obtain
potable water.Irrigation is hampered due to excessive rain washing away the
topsoil as a result of human encroachment into the forests. Recent developments
of rain-water harvesting techniques in the area have greatly helped the town
and its neighbouring villages.
The highlight of
Dawki in Meghalaya is the Umngot River, which is like a floating mirror. The
green water of this mountain fed water-body is so clear that you can actually
see the riverbed. This Dawki river forms the natural boundary between Ri Pnar/
Jaintia Hills and the Hima Khyrim of Khasi Hills
Mawlynnong has earned a reputation for being one of the
cleanest villages in Asia, but a sobriquet that does more justice is that of
God's Own Garden.
Mawlynnong is a village in the East Khasi Hills district of
the Meghalaya state in North East India. It is notable for its cleanliness and
also was chosen by Discover India magazine as Asia's cleanest village. The
village comes under the Pynursla community development block and Vidhan Sabha
constituency
LIVING ROOT BRIDGE
A living root bridge is a type of simple suspension bridge
formed of living plant roots by tree shaping. They are common in the
North-Eastern part of the Indian state of Meghalaya. They are handmade from the
aerial roots of rubber fig trees by the Khasi and Jaiñtia peoples of the
mountainous terrain along the southern part of the Shillong Plateau. Most of
the bridges grow on steep slopes of subtropical moist broadleaf forest between
50 and 1,150 m (160 and 3,770 ft) above sea level.
As long as the tree from which it is formed remains healthy,
the roots in the bridge can naturally grow thick and strengthen. New roots can
grow throughout the tree's life and must be pruned or manipulated to strengthen
the bridge. Once mature, some bridges can have as many as 50 or more people
crossing, and have a lifespan of several hundred years.Without active care,
many bridges have decayed or grown wild, becoming unusable Written
documentation of living root bridges was sparse until the 2010s, but in 2017,
researchers geo-located a total of 75 living root bridges.
Living root bridges have also been created in the Indian
state of Nagaland, in Indonesia at Jembatan akar on the island of Sumatra,
and in the Banten province of Java, by the Baduy people.
