There are a few sights in this world that make you believe that we live in a magical land - the Living Roots bridge is one such sight. It exposes nature in its raw, original form making you feel beautifully insignificant as you come in its periphery. Built by the members of the Khasi tribe using the secondary roots of the rubber fig tree, today the bridge, which demands a journey of 7000 steps, stands long and tall even after two centuries.
