Sweet Falls

About

Sweet Falls (also called Kshaid Weitden, in the native dialect) is a waterfall near Shillong in Meghalaya, India. It lies about 5 km from Happy Valley and is about 96 metres (315 ft) in height. It is often termed as the "most beautiful" yet "most dangerous" waterfall in Shillong. The destination is accessible via road. However, tourists are prohibited to go close to the waterfall due to the poor route and treacherous nature of the fall. The adjacent areas are filled with pine trees. Some of the plant species include Eupatorium, Lantana, Rubus, fern-Osmundastrum cinnamomeum and Phegopteris.
