Mawphlang Sacred Forest: A Sanctuary of Nature and Spirituality

The Mawphlang Sacred Forest, also known as the 'Sri Satavari' forest, is a unique ancient sacred grove in Meghalaya, India. It is one of the last remaining sacred forests in the region and is home to ancient trees, some believed to be over 300 years old. The forest holds great cultural and spiritual significance for the Khasi people, who believe it to be the abode of deities. It is also a UNESCO World Heritage site and a haven for nature enthusiasts, offering lush greenery, diverse flora, and serene misty hills.
