Exploring World's Only Double Decker Living Root Bridge | Nongriat Trek Meghalaya | Northeast India

Описание: The Double Decker Living Root Bridge is one of the most extraordinary natural wonders of Meghalaya, located in the beautiful Nongriat village near Cherrapunji. Known for its two-level structure, this living bridge is not built by machines but grown naturally over decades using the aerial roots of the rubber tree also known as Ficus elastica.

In this video, I take you through the story of how the local Khasi villagers patiently trained these roots across a stream, creating a strong and sustainable bridge that has helped generations cross safely, especially during heavy monsoon seasons. The Double Decker Root Bridge stands as a perfect example of how humans and nature can work together in harmony.

The journey to Nongriat itself is an adventure. The trek involves around 3,500+ stone steps, passing through dense forests, hanging bridges, small waterfalls, and crystal-clear streams. Every step offers breathtaking views, peaceful surroundings, and hidden spots that make the trek as rewarding as the destination.
