Best Things To Do In Shillong

Riverside Camping at Shnongpdeng

Shillong is home to lots of gorgeous lakes and rivers, in addition to the lush green hills and beautiful waterfalls. The Umngot River is one such lovely river, famous for its crystal-pure water. One can enjoy an amazing boat trip in Dawki, but the peaceful atmosphere of Shnongpdeng enhances the experience.

Enjoy The Colonial Architecture in All Saints Cathedral

All Saints Cathedral, located near Barik Point, is one of the hill station’s oldest churches. One of the nicest things to do in Shillong is to pay a visit to this church. This church was rebuilt in 1902 after being damaged by an earthquake in 1897. All Saints Cathedral, Shillong’s major cathedral, is famous for its wooden colonial-style architecture.

Scuba Diving

It’s more exciting to have your first Scuba Diving experience when the river seems pleasant and clean. Umngot River is one of the best destinations for scuba diving because of its crystal clear waters and you will enjoy it much more when fish and other water animals swim along.
