Geography & terrain
Krang Suri Falls lies in the West Jaintia Hills district of Meghalaya, 70 km from Shillong and 10 km from Jowai — the turquoise waterfall of the region, its pools, the swim and the forest ring set on the road below the cliff.
History & culture
The falls' story runs with the region's tourism revival — the waterfall of the Jaintia hills' streams, with the falls' modern role as the swimming and the photo stop of the Shillong–Jowai circuit and the eco-point of the district; the falls' history of the forest streams and the locals' pools, gives Krang Suri its turquoise-falls character.
