chalet architecture The surrounding grassy moors justify Meghalaya s over-played Scotland of the East tourist-office sou

Tripura chalet architecture is culturally and politically chalet architecture fascinating, and the state s handful of royal palaces and temples draw a growing flow of domestic tourists. For the moment though foreign tourists remain very rare indeed. There s a large Bangladeshi refugee population in Tripura and much of the more accessible western chalet architecture parts of the state look and feel much like its near neighbour.

The surrounding grassy moors justify Meghalaya s over-played Scotland of the East tourist-office soubriquet, although they re dotted with Khasi monoliths and scarred by quarrying. Much more impressive is the series of grand canyon valleys chalet architecture that plunge into deep lush chasms of tropical forest sprayed by a succession of seasonally inspiring chalet architecture waterfalls. The Nohkalikai Falls, fourth highest in the world, are particularly dramatic, especially in the monsoon when their capacity increases 20-fold. You can see them easily enough without quite entering the official viewpoint (admission/camera 10/200; h8am-5pm), 4.4km southwest of Sohra market.
