Nongriat Root Bridges

Nongriat Root Bridges are extraordinary living bridges located in the village of Nongriat in Meghalaya. These bridges are formed by the aerial roots of the Ficus elastica tree, which are guided and intertwined over many years to create strong and functional natural bridges. The root bridges of Nongriat are a testament to the innovative engineering skills of the local Khasi tribes, who have nurtured and maintained these unique structures for generations.
