    If you’re driving, the NH6 is the fastest link from Shillong to Umiam Lake, but you could add a quick stop at the Shillong War Memorial right off the highway for a WWII snapshot. From there, a short detour to the old colonial watchtower at Shillong Peak gives a 19th century military angle. After the lake, a quick drive to the nearby Dholai Village can offer a glimpse of traditional Khasi architecture. If you need a place to rest in Shillong, Living Roof is close to the highway.
