Ficus elastica
Meghalaya is famous for its living root bridges, a kind of suspension bridge made over rivers using intertwined roots of "Ficus elastica" trees planted on opposite banks of the river or hill slopes. These bridges can be seen around Cherrapunji, Nongtalang, Kudeng Rim and Kudeng Thymmai villages (War Jaintia). A double-decker bridge exists in Nongriat village.
