three lines on living root Bridge
Answers
Explanation:
1. The village is located near the Bangladesh border, around three hours from Shillong. To reach the root bridge, drive to Riwai village, a few kilometers before Mawlynnong. From there, it's approximately a 15 minute walk one way.
2. Root Bridges. To make a tree grow in a certain direction, the tribes people use the trunks of a betul nut tree, sliced down the middle and hollowed out as a guidance system. By manipulating and directing the secondary roots, they could create ultra strong and living bridges with which to cross their streams.
3. So make sure to specify DOUBLE DECKER ROOT BRIDGE AT CHERRAPUNJI. This is a short trek of around 3-4hrs tops (if you want to cover the double decker) around 3000 steps. While going down you will come across 2 roads. One to visit the Double Decker another for the Single Decker.
