Available from Upper Shillong or Jowai Road, lying around 10 km away from the city, the Shillong Peak offers you probably the best view nearby. For the most part canvassed in haze, it remains at a height of 1,966 m above ocean level. The semi-round top looks marvelous and takes after a crown set on top of Shillong Hill. Vacationers can either climb or ride to the top to take in the quiet perspectives. On arriving at the zenith, one would be presented to a stunning perspective on Shillong spread taking all things together its wonder, the Himalayas and the fields of Bangladesh.
