Kongthong : A Land of Melodious Identity

Amongst the many idyllic villages tucked away in the hills of Meghalaya, the village of Kongthong is most extraordinary due to a unique local culture. The people of Kongthong do not address each other by name but rather by a tune that has been assigned to them at birth. This is an age-old tradition followed by the entire village. This tune is considered useful during hunting as it serves as an identity. Kongthong Village is well-known for the production of organic honey. A trek through this village is unlike anything that any of us may experience so far!
Night Stay in camp.

Contact us for a melodious journey to Konthong.
