Dawki is a small but mighty town, sitting on the border between India and Bangladesh. So, if you’ve ever wanted to cross borders on a boat ride, this is the place to do it!
The Umngot River is the real star of the show here. Boating in its waters is like being in a postcard, surrounded by breathtaking greenery and the cold, refreshing water.

But Dawki isn’t just about boats and borders. The town is a trade hub and a center of tourism, so you’ll find plenty of things to do and see. Take a stroll and admire the beautiful suspension bridge on the Umngot River or soak in the picturesque views of the Khasi and Jaintia Hills. Dawki is truly a feast for the eyes and the soul.
And speaking of feasts, don’t forget to try out the local delicacies! Jadoh, Dohneiihong, Makham-Bitchi, and Jhur Sideh are some of the must-try dishes. And if you have a sweet tooth, you’re in for a treat! Dawki is famous for its sweets and oranges, so don’t miss out on those.
Dawki is a year-round destination, but keep in mind that winters can get pretty chilly, so pack a cozy jacket or two. But no matter what time of year you visit, you’re guaranteed a good time.
