@Manan Mody : thank you so much .
1: Accomodation in Mawlynnong is available as bamboo huts but you need to book for it in advance.Here is Henry's phone number -09615043027 ( *speaks English/Khasi
),you can book the hut and talk to him about your plans /place you would want to visit as he is the best guide over there and also a very helpful person.As far as number od days is concerned ,it is up to you -some like to stay for weeks or months but for me three -four days would have been enough.I strongly suggest that you read Timothy Allen's(BBC TRAVEL-PHOTOGRAPHER/REPORTER) article (the link is given on this post only ---do check).

The best time to talk to Henry would be from 10.00AM to 7.00pm .

2: The food9veg if you want) can be ordered as per your choice so I think that should not be a problem.Kitchens are clean there .
HAVE A HAPPY STAY AT MAWLYNNONG .

MY WARM REGARDS Mrs.KAVITA. LOVED YOUR BLOG. MY WIFE AND I ARE TRAVELLING TO SHILLONG - CHERAPUNJEE - MAWLYNNONG IN FEB, 2012. I JUST WANTED TO KNOW HOW MANY DAYS SHOULD WE STAY IN MAWLYNNONG VILLAGE AND IS THERE ACCOMMODATION AVAILABLE ? WE WOULD LOVE TO STAY IN BAMBOO HUTS. ALSO WE ARE PURE VEGETARIANS SO WILL FOOD BE A PROBLEM ? ALSO CAN WE STAY IN MAWLYNNONG AND TRAVEL TO REVAI VILLAGE FOR A DAY? ARE THERE ANY OTHER ACTIVITIES AROUND? KINDLY SUGGEST.

THANKYOU,
MANAN MODY.

Wow, Kavita! This post was like a dessert! So much eye candy and beautiful things to see. Some of that area reminds me of what Hawaii looked like when I was growing up. You won't see it anymore on Oahu. What a terrific place to visit. Thank you so much for sharing it with us!

Amazing post Kavita ji... Really the village is one of a kind, so clean! Kudos to the villagers who have maintained such standards over the years...
And I just loved that Bamboo house, the balancing rock and the witches spit!! Wow! So much to see there...
Also 'Jalebi Yatra', sounds sweet, I too love Jalebi and could have used this name for my blog too!!!
Have a fabulous week ahead:)

Margaret Cloud :yes ,the village is small with only 82-85 families living in it.Thanks for appreciation.

Margie :there are so many places in the world that it is not possible to see them all.Blogging makes it possible for us to share these less explored places.Thanks for liking the post.

Sandhya: bamboo and cane is used very interestingly in North East .Each state has it's own unique things. The fine imposed by the council is very minimal but it is considered at big shame for the self respecting people of this village.I felt so much at peace there.I wish every nook and corner of our country is like this village .Thanks :)
