A magnificent waterfall
One of the steepest and the most mesmerizing falls of the country, the Sweet Falls is located about 5 km from Happy Valley in Shillong. At a height of 315 feet, it is often considered as the most stunning yet most dangerous waterfall. The route to the waterfall is quite treacherous surrounded by slippery stones , set amidst the lush green jungles of Shillong . Unlike the tiered waterfalls of Meghalaya, the Sweet Falls a straight pencil of water emerging from a large size water pipe, as it drops vertically over a distance exceeding two hundred feet a thick rush of water falling from a great height making it impossible to stand below or take a bath in the falls. The Sweet Falls of Shillong is a popular picnic spot surrounded by verdant greenery and filled with the sounds of the chirping birds. There is also a butterfly museum a mini zoo near the waterfalls. There is a railing at the site of the waterfall but it is too weak to lean on. Though Sweet Falls has been marked a danger zone by the local government as it has been the site of some tragic incidents as such the local authorities should look into the matter on urgent basis.

A beautiful landscape
For this falls one has to go through the gate of the Assam Rifle. They may ask for identifation papers. It offers a vast landscape sorrounding the falls. The area is not very well known. Though there is no entry fee but local villagers charge of Rs 20/- for the point.

Costly trip but worth it
I could not manage any public transport to this place and thus had to hire a cab with two other stranger travellers. It costed Rs350 per head. But the view of the falls was amazing. Most tourist cab operator omit this spot from the regular Shillong spots but this is something one should not miss.
