Overview
Dawki At A Glance
Dawki sits on Meghalaya's border with Bangladesh, on the banks of the Umngot river. The water here runs so clear that boats appear to float above the riverbed. Local families still ferry visitors across in traditional dugout canoes. We build in unhurried time here, so you can take in the river at its stillest, early in the day.
