    If you’re heading from Shillong to Umiam via NH6, the first stop after the war memorial is the old colonial watchtower at Shillong Peak it gives a quick glimpse of 19th century military strategy. A short detour from the peak to the nearby Dholai Village then shows traditional Khasi houses and a few colonial structures, adding another historical layer before you reach the lake. If you need a comfortable base in Shillong, Living Roof is only a few minutes from the highway.
