Tucked away in the misty hills of Northeast India, Meghalaya is a dream come true for nature lovers. The state, whose name literally means “abode of clouds,” is known for its endless waterfalls, crystal-clear rivers and untouched forests. Every corner feels like a postcard – from the living root bridges of Cherrapunji to the turquoise pools of Dawki. What makes Meghalaya so special is its raw, natural beauty. There is a sense of peace here – a mix of mountain air, rushing water, and vibrant green landscapes that seem straight out of a fantasy film.

Recently, this magic came alive again on social media when content creator Jessica Meersman shared a video from her trip to Meghalaya. In the clip, she can be seen sliding down a smooth, natural rock slide that ends right in one of the region's stunning infinity pools. The water is so clear that you can almost see the rocks beneath, and the whole place is surrounded by thick jungle and misty mountains. It is one of those moments that makes you stop scrolling for a second.
Jessica's caption perfectly captured the vibe: “Checked this one off my bucket list. This spot felt unreal… surrounded by jungle, crystal-clear water, and that infinity-pool view at the end. Meghalaya just keeps surprising me! Definitely one for the books. If you ever get the chance, add this to your list.”

Internet's reaction
Her video quickly made rounds on Instagram, with people dropping love-filled comments. Many could not stop admiring the location.
One user wrote, “The beauty of nature.”
Another added, “The northeast part of India is the best place to visit.”
Someone else commented, “The exciting peaks, crystal clear lakes, beautiful breathtaking waterfall here in my beautiful East Khasi Hills in Meghalaya.”
A traveller confessed, “Though I've travelled 10–12 states, you are making me feel I had not even known India yet.”
Another person chimed in, “Meghalaya is a small state in India but the hidden gems are blowing my mind.”
A few even shared words of caution. One user wrote, “Take care of yourself while doing any kind of sliding in these mountains.”
Krohiawhiar, East Khasi Hills - What Makes It So Special
Among the flood of comments, someone pointed out where the stunning slide is actually located. According to a user, “This slide and waterfall is in Krohiawhiar, East Khasi Hills.”
Krohiawhiar, tucked deep inside the East Khasi Hills, is one of Meghalaya's many secret spots that you would not find in guidebooks. It is a place where nature has shaped the land in its own playful way — with smooth stone slides, clear water streams and gentle pools formed over centuries. Getting there usually involves short hikes through forest trails lined with ferns, bamboo and betel nut trees.

Meghalaya's natural infinity pools
Meghalaya's natural infinity pools are some of the state's biggest treasures. Found mostly in the East Khasi and Jaintia Hills, these pools are formed by waterfalls and streams carving through rocks. What makes them special is how they blend with the horizon — giving that perfect infinity view against a backdrop of misty hills. The water here stays clear year-round, thanks to the region's fresh mountain springs and unspoiled environment.
