Why March here
Three stacked falls on the edge of town, reached by steps along the rock face.
Elephant Falls is Shillong’s easy classic: three tiers stacked down a fern-lined rock face, with steps and walkways between them, named by the British for an elephant-shaped rock that an earthquake later took away.
