Nohkalikai Falls

At 340 meters, Nohkalikai Falls is the tallest plunge waterfall in India. Located near Cherrapunji, it cascades dramatically from a lush cliff into a turquoise pool. It’s named after a tragic Khasi legend of a woman named Likai, and the viewpoint offers panoramic sights of Meghalaya’s misty hills and valleys.
