Chinma waterfalls a hidden treasure

 Chinma Falls

Chinma Falls
 Nestled among the hills of Shallang, a small town in the West Khasi hills, are two spectacular waterfalls- The Chinma Falls and The Rangmana Falls. These waterfalls are quite untouched and are known by only a handfull of people . However with time, the place is gaining popularity and now people are visiting these waterfalls  from different places. The govt. of Meghalaya is also planning to make this place as a tourist attraction. The Waterfalls are around 170 km west of the captial city of Meghalaya, Shillong.

How to reach this place?

We can reach this place from multiple places as it is close to the state highway no 1 which is the bifurcation of National Highway no 217 from a place called Rongjeng around 22km west of the Waterfalls. The road to this place is not yet added to the google map till this day. So if your route is from the west then you should not reach till Shallang, but around a kilometer or two there is a small  diversion of a trail. The trail can be identified with a this bridge as a marking point, if you cross the bridge which you will find  just before reaching the town of Shallang then it will be clear that the diversion trail to the waterfalls is passed beyond.  Then just reverse your ride and then the trail that you first left that you encounter after you cross that bridge will take you to those waterfalls. 

If your route is from east i.e if you wanna reach this place from Shillong side. We have to travel west around 90km on NH 106 to a town called Nongstoin and then continue the journey on SH-1 around 80-85km. To reach the place while heading there from east the town of Shallang is to be crossed and then a bridge that I mentioned earlier to be crossed and  then the trail to reach the waterfalls will be the first left after crossing the bridge. 
I hope soon the Meghalaya government will put a signboard on the road and once its done then it will be quite easy to locate the place.

 Way to reach the waterfalls 

After being able to locate the road that heads towards the waterfalls , the trail gets bad for a couple of kilometres till which you will be able to take your vehicle . The good news is the government there is building new road and hope it gets done soon so that more people can swiftly reach this beautiful place,

 but beyond a point you will have to trek for around half a kilometer. The trek is not so strenuous  but the steep descent is bit dangerous if you are not used to steep climb. After the decent start we don’t have to reach out far for the Rangmanma falls and it’s majestic view is just mesmerizing. And during a normal day on the month of july it looks like this. 
Rangmanma Falls


We can reach the top of Chinma Waterfalls and enjoy the view from to of it. Gazing at this wonder from a closeup top view
Standing on top of
Chinma falls

will not be as pleasant as looking at it from the bottom and up front. So, in order to reach the bottom of the Chinma Falls we have to descend down further from the point where we took left to reach the Rangmanma falls, now just follow the trail to the left. This descend is steeper so be careful. And ones you reach the bottom the mesmerizing Chinma Falls will be right before your eyes.


Some personal suggestions 

  • Please wear shoes it will help you in the trek.
  • Please do not litter the place. Take your things and bring back and throw it to the litterbins on the top.


  • Visit a view point which is around 10km west to the waterfalls on SH1
    View point

  • Don’t drink during the trekking as it is a rocky terrain so it can be catastrophic if you slip down.
  • Take water with you as you might get dehydrated while ascending 

My personal experience 

I started at around 10:00AM along with my friends from Dudhnoi and it took us around 3hours to reach the trail from the SH. It was our first time there and we didn’t know how to reach there and the roads. We just had few friends telling us the road that will lead us to the waterfalls. So we passed the trail and went till Shallang police station and on seeing the police station we came to know that we have gone beyond the  place from where the trail starts and then we returned on that same road asking people and because of language problem we were not even able to ask them the location to the place. Luckily we found a man who explained us how we reach the waterfalls. The suggestions above for wearing shoes is because I personally suffered alot in that slippery terrain i was wearing slippers and it was a hell ride for me. I had to walk barefooted on those rocky terrain. And please take some water with you because while ascending its very tiresome and if you are not a frequent trekker then you might also blackout. The roads and the view to those roads are something to adore too. It gave me the real life manifestation of the saying that ‘Journey is equally beautiful to the destination’

On the way to

Chinma falls

The Journey From Kota to Guwahati

The Journey during lockdown


Today I'm writing almost after a year. Due to some of my personal reason. So I had to keep my blogging aside. I would like to appologize to all my readers for that and moreover until the lockdown is completely over I don't think that I would be able to put forword some content. 
This is the journey that I have done during the lockdown. Hope you enjoy reading it.  Lets jump into the journey without wasting time in the back story.  

Our journey began from Kota, Rajasthan on 24/04/2020 with around 400 students and parents. Assam govt have done a admirable job in our return back home. There were 17 buses that brought us back to our state . This was my by far the longest journey that I ever had by a bus. And I dont think anything can beat this 2200km long journey  in a bus. Yes it is true I can do it in a bike, car or even truck but not in a commercial bus that is something which I'm  certain about. 
We started from Kota, Rajasthan right around at 8:45 A:M in the morning but because of offical work it took us somewhat near of 12:00 noon to exit the city. But after that the journy started. I Saw the plight of the people on the road. Seeing the people we see in TV waiting for a transport to ferry them to their home. That day I again felt how much priviliged we are. 
We were supposed to reach Khushinagar, UP at 10:00PM that day  for a nightstay. But the journey started late so we kept on going and going then night struck. We reached UP at the Dusk and had some food and reached Jhansi, UP. There they checked few of our body temperature and did some of the routine stuffs. But they called up for a name called Haider Ahmed. I called out for the man and there were no one of such name in my bus. I checked out several times since it was a bus with 20 students so it was not that hard to notice that there was no one of such name. Later Jhansi, police called me enquiring about the person. I said if he would have been here I would have got him. Moreover the man was a parent and we dont have any parent in our bus. Later on I came to know that there was no Haider Ahmed in the whole group. Not only in bus 1 but neither  of the buses. I have no idea who the UP police was looking for. Whatever lets go forward with the journey. Then we kept on going that night then I slept.

The next morning(25/04/2020) when I woke up the landscape had changed and much more greener and felt good. We were somewhere in UP crossed Lucknow and was heading towards Ayodhya. We kept on going and finally at around 12:30pm we reached Khusinagar, UP. There we stayed in a govt. of UP Made Resort. When I talked to few to staffs by seeing the influence of Buddhism in the area. Then I came to know that Khushinagar was the place where Gautama The Buddha took his last breath. Then I felt so good and blessed. Its a promise guys i will definitely bring you a detailed blog from Khushinagar in coming future.
Then at the time of deperture from Khushinagar. Me and my friend who were alloted the same villa took a nap and later everyone was on the bus and waiting for us. The resort staffs came in and asked us to leave since our fleet was about to leave. We ran to the bus and saw some very angry faces staring at us. Then we wents to the bus and did the counting and we were good to go again. 
Then we keep on moving and reached Bihar Boarder by the Dusk. There we were stopped for about an hour. Then ones the bus started we were going again. As we had our dinner packed we only stopped for washroom breaks at few places. And in that same way the journey started and then I slept.

Next morning(26/04/2020) or to rightly say the last morning in the bus. We reached West Bengal boarder. And the big problem to deal was toilet. We stood by a petrol pump and brushed and washed us up but there were no toilet to be seen for. Few of my bus companions were desperate to go for a poop. So I found a place near a pond with sufficient bush as suggested by the locals there. I know it is not good unhygenic and all but what to do in that time of urgency. But they chose not to go there and returned to the bus. Then after we entered West Bangal it was so familiar and when we were about to reach Baghdogra the tea gardens popped up. At that time after a period of 10 month I felt like woo,  this feels like we will reach home soon. When I saw the mountains from Baghdora I never felt so good. After seeing the stone laden hills with little scattered number of trees for the past 10 months in Rajasthan. Seeing this lush green mountains were like trat to my eyes. Then our journey kept on going and things got more and more familier. We got our lunch in our bus itself and we left West Bengal behind. 

Then by the dusk we entered our homestate "Assam". There we were escorted by the police. We reached Kajolgaon, Chirang at around 9:00P:M. there we were welcomed by the police with applauds. I never felt so important. Then we were given our dinner. The dinner comprised of Pulao, Panner, potato and cauliflower fry, boiled egg, gulab jamun, a juice and an apple. The food felt so tasty it is incomprehensible. Eating basic food for the past time in the journey and suddenly getting good food is all that you want and the feeling was out of this world. 
Then we started from there at around 11:30PM. And we reached our destination Guwahati's Indira Gandhi International stadium at around 3:30A:M 27/04/2020 , where our Hon'ble Health & Finance minister Mr Himanta Bishawasharma received us. There the girls were sent to the Hotels they are alloted and we boys are here in the Quarantine facility in Indira Gandhi International Stadium from where Im writing this blog. 

The journey was not that smooth as it sounds. There were times when a bus got misrouted and went 40km away in the wrong path. One of the girl busted her head on the bus due to the jerking of the bus. But all in all it was a pleasent journey considering the grand scheme. I would thank all the police personals who had accompanied us and made our journey smooth. 
Hope you enjoy reading this. Feel free to write me any suggestions, remarks that you are willing to share with me.

TOP PLACES TO VISIT IN DEOGHAR, JHARKHAND, INDIA

The Trip: Top Places to Visit Deogarh 

Hey! Readers. This is you travel buddy The Solo Xplorer Today I'm very excited and nervous too. This is my first blog outside of Guwahati . Hope you like it and keep supporting me like always. Thanks everyone for your love and support. Please comment your suggestion to me how to improve my blog. 
As promised my reader friend. I was going to give you a surprise. So now the time has come to reveal. So without any further a due lets get started. 

The journey

So I started my journey from my hometown of Dudhnoi. I started at around 11:45A:M from my home and went to Bongaigaon(a district city in Assam). Then from there I had my train till Rampurhat, West Bengal. So by 3:20 I boarded on the train and the train journey was as usual. And by 1:25 A:M. And got to an e-rickshaw and went to get the bus to
Dumka(A district city in Jharkhand) from where I was supposed to take the bus to Deoghar( District city in Jharkhand). So by 3:00A:M I got onto the bus for Dumka and reached Dumka by approximately  5:15 A:M . But due to high number of weddings the buses were reserved and waited for the bus then finally a bus came by but the number of people was so high that I sat on the top of the bus
. I was excited as in Assam i never faced the circumstances to sit on top of the bus. The experience was very nice. Looking at the landscape of rural Jharkhand it i was breathing. The roads from Dumka to Deoghar were straight as a needle. Next time i would try to go on a bike on that road as it will be paradise for one looking to check out their top speed on their vehicles. Then finally I got off when I reached Deoghar. By around 8:25A:M. So finally my destination was reached for the tymbing. And then went on to see the places. 

The Places to visit in Deoghar

  • Baidyanath Dham

This place is one of the most important places in Hindu pilgrimage. This place is said to house Lord Shiva himself as the Jotirlingam.

As per stories my priest (pnda). Ravana the great perhaps the greatest devotee of Lord Shiva prayed to Lord Shiva for many years to take him to Lanka his kingdom. So that he can please Lord Shiva while looking after his Subjects. And he succeeded to take Lord Shiva in his Lingam form   with a condition that he should not be kept anywhere. Where ever he keeps the Lingam no one in this universe will be able to pick that up for him or for anyone. So he started from Mount Kailash. But due to his huge ambitiousness The god's fear that Ravana will be so powerful that no one will be able to beat him with Lord Shiva protecting him. So they pleaded to Lord Vishnu and Lord Vishnu then pleaded to Lord Shiva.
On which Lord Shiva ask them to Plead Lord Ganesha. So Lord Ganesha decended on that place as a cow herder. And mean while Ravana had great urge to urinate. So he began searching for person to hold the Lingam. Then he saw Lord Ganesha (The Cow hearted)  and pleaded him to hold the Lingam. On which he agreed. But when Ravana started to urinate he was not stopping at all. On to which Lord Ganesha said i cannot hold it anymore it is so heavy and I'm just a small boy. Then Lord Ganesha kept it. Then after some time Ravana stopped Urinating and went to pick the lingam but he failed. He was devastated. And went to another place to meditate and pray Lord Shiva to let him take to Lanka. But he failed and Lord Shiva never went to Lanka

  • Tapovan


This is the place according to the legends where Ravana went to meditate after his disaster that i mentioned before. Lord Shiva refused to go. This made him sad and from there he returned to Lanka. 


This place is around 4-5km from Deoghar. You can easily take an auto to the place



  • Nandan pahar park

This is a beautiful park.
Located on the bank of a pond. This is not like a big Amusement park
but a rather small park with great views and  silent back drop here you
can come and relax. This is in the sub urban area of Deoghar.

  • Trikut Pahar: 

Ravana from abducting Mata Sita. The top peak has a great view. Even if you don't believe this tales you can come to visit this place just to experience the sheer beauty of the place.
The rope way made it easier for visitors to see the place. I would like to jump from the cliff with a wing suite. It would be so much fun. This place is around 16km from Deoghar town but the place is so common that you will get Auto to there alway .


  • Satsang Ashram

This is the headquarters
of the dharma called 'Joyguru'. Which I'm too a follower of. This place is very beautiful. You will find peace in here. Everyone can visit this place irrespective of gender, religion, caste, creed and race.
I would like to suggest everyone to visit this place too. 

The Conclusion 

Sorry everyone since i was in hurry and was visiting the places. I was only able to visit Baidyanath Dham and Satsang Ashram but the other places are all my visited places. And all the reviews are 100% genuine. I apologize for that . And the pictures are of my old visits. I was not able to visit those places. I would like to suggest you that if you want to visit all the places you can it is not impossible but it will be too hectic and you wont be able to experience it much. So I would suggest you to spend at least 2days there. I couldn't spend time because I have more places to visit and now I have boarded to a train to my new destination. I wont tell you where but it will be good. Now I'm here in the train off to a new place to bring you new blog. 
Guys siging off today. The trip continues. Stay tuned. 
Thank you for reading. 
Now I'm on instagram for new update follow my instagram page @soloxplorer16
Till then siging off. Everyone live your life to the fullest and never regret. 👋 see you next time

KAMAKHYA : DISCOVER THE SUPREME POWER

Nilachal hills : The home to divine.

First of all a very Happy Bihu to all my readers. I'm sorry guys I'm not able to write a separate blog on Bihu because of my exams. Please i beg your pardon for this. I'm really sorry readers. But today's blog is very close to my heart this is one of the most most significant religious place for Hindus in the entire North East India
. People from around the world visit here. I always wanted to write about Nilachal hills in a separate blog. Since today i visited the place so here I'm with a new blog. Writing about this place as it is close to my heart as me being Hindu by birth. 

  • The journey. 

Today I came from my place as it is quite far from Nilachal hills and being a bit far I took a cab and went there. There were my parents, brother and relatives waiting for me. And I would like to tell that I was not there to go there to the temple of Maa Kamakhya but to the temple of Bagla Maa. This is a tradition made by my family that we go to that temple every year after Rongali Bihu. So as per that tradition we went there. We offered puja there and prayed. Because we had vote in Guwahati today the people there are very less. 

  • Maa Bagla temple

This temple is few hundred meters from Kamakhya and is according to my observation it is the biggest after the main Maa Kamakhya temple. This temple has very nice views from it. Many people dont even know this temple exist because most of the people visit Kamakhya devalaya and exhausted by the visit most people return from there. I would like to tell that you should this visit this temple not as a very religious person but the ancient architecture there is quite intriguing. Visit this temple if you visit Kamakhya Devalaya next time.

  • Kamakhya Devalaya.

This is the temple that makes Nilachal Hills so popular. People often call the hill as Kamakhya pahar(hill) . This is one of the ancient temples here in the state of Assam.
It was constructed at around 8-9th century AD. It has Maa Kamakhya as the primary deity in the and the temple wall is curved with several deities like Lord Shiva, Lord Vishnu, Goddess Saraswati and various other Gods and Goddesses.
The craftsmanship of the place always make me feel mesmerized.
How our ansestors were so advanced in their craft. This place is said to have a part of Goddess Parvati have fallen here. It is believed that Goddess Parvati's genitalia fell there. That is the reason during the devine Amabachi Mela the temple door is kept close as it is believed that it the time of Goddess Parvati's mesnturation. This part fell here after it was dismembered by Lord Vishnu to save the world from Catstrophy of the universe by the anger of Lord Shiva. 

  • View from Nilachal Hill. 

This hill is one of the most visited hills in entire Guwahati city. And the view from here is breath taking. One cannot stay without getting awed by the sheer beauty of the views from the hill.









Sorry everyone again for late content but soon I will be doing blogs very frequently and i have a surprise for you so stay tuned

HOLI IN GUWAHATI

HOLI IN GUWAHATI

First of all happy holi to everyone hope you enjoyed this holi well. I'm very sorry everyone I have not put forward any blogs for you. I'm really sorry for that.  I have been preparing for my entrances which will come to an end only after that I would be able to bring blogs to you regularly. But now I'm mostly devoting my time to studies and not getting enough time to explore new places. But ones my exams get over I will be free to explore new places and bring you all more and more new places and exciting experience. So that you all can have an amazing time when visiting those places. 
Now without wasting much time lets get started. 
Today's holi was my first official holi in Guwahati although i have been living in Guwahati for last 3years but last two years either I was at home or at the time of holi of dint play holi as I was too lazy back then. But today since I'm living no more in a hostel and I'm free to go where ever I like.  I too dint have any plans this year for holi I was too lazy to go out but my brother applied colour to me and then I was forced to pick myself up and then go out.  I thought this as a great opportunity to bring you all the fun and excitement of holi. 


  • FANCY BAZAAR 

This was the place I went first.
People roaming around with the festive mood
I was planning to walk the whole of Guwahati but then I met my brother and his group and joined them.  We went to Fancy bazaar and there was total festive atmosphere it was more like a rock concert.

After Fancy Bazaar we decided to go to Belle view.  This place is one of my favorite in Guwahati as the view from here of the Brahmaputra is magnificent. The cool breeze of Mighty Brahmaputra
The beautiful Mighty Brahmaputra

cooled us. There the people in our group started smashing eggs on the head of each other. Only couples were saved in that raw egg battle. Luckily i was among them who were saved. We chilled there for and hour along with the egg madness and playing holi. Then it was time for lunch. 

  • Jorabat
 By the time we left Belli view we were starving .

Then we headed to 9mile to have lunch but on the way the group broke up and they cancelled the plan. After that me and my brother went where we intended but then we thought of going to somewhere new so we decided to go to Brahmaputra Jungle Resort.

Visiting the place was great it is quite in the outskirts of the town.  The views from there were mesmerizing. But it was smaller then I expected. But it was good the food was good and most importantly affordable . Not too expensive.
