Accepted Answer

Question 5

What is the speciality of Cherrapunji?

Accepted Answer

The unique double-decker living root bridge. While a tour of Cherrapunji will take you across some of the most amazing tourist attractions and activities, it is the double-decker living root bridge at Nongriat that steals the cake.

Even among these, the Umshiang double-decker root bridge is quite special. Not only is this bridge a ‘double-decker’, but it is also well-known for its length, which spans 3 kilometres, at a height of a whopping 2400 feet.
