February 4, 2022 Brandee Mangan

Shillong (English: /ʃɪˈlɔːŋ/; Khasi: Shillong) is a hill station in the northeastern part of India and the capital of Meghalaya, which means "The Abode of Clouds" and is one of the smallest states in India. It is the headquarters of the East Khasi Hills district and is situated at an average altitude of 4,908 feet (1,496 m) above sea level, with the highest point being Shillong Peak at 6,449 feet (1,966 m). Shillong is the 330th most populous city in India with a population of 143,229 according to the 2011 census. It is said that the rolling hills around the town reminded the European settlers of Scotland. Hence, they would also refer to it as the "Scotland of the East".

A vast expanse of never ending green landscapes, tall pine trees all around, shadowy mountains in the backdrop and silvery clouds dotting the orangish sky make this spot a real treat to visit and enjoy at all times of the day. One can just take a stroll around the beautiful undulating landscape or sit and enjoy the magic of nature spattered all around with full hearted generosity. A must must visit to savour the natural beauty of the town.
