    If you’re heading from Shillong to Umiam Lake, you could detour to the Shillong War Memorial first just off NH6. After that, the old colonial watchtower at Shillong Peak offers a quick 19th century military view. From the peak, a short drive brings you to the traditional Khasi houses in Dholai Village. It’s a quick, historically rich loop before the lake.
