Dawki — Shnongpdeng

Dawki sits on the India–Bangladesh border along the southern ranges of Meghalaya. The pristine Umngot River through Shnongpdeng is a must for boating over water so clear it creates an illusion of floating on glass. Riverside camps, swimming, and fishing are part of the outdoor rhythm. The Dawki Suspension Bridge — built by the British in 1932 — offers panoramic views over the emerald river.

Interesting factDawki is a major trading route directly connected to Bangladesh — tourism flourished around the river’s emerald clarity.
