Summary

Description
English: Along the border of India-Bangladesh, near the Tamabil-Dawki checkpost flows the beautiful Dawki river with greenish-blueish water so clear that one can see the bottom of the river even from as high as the bridge over the river. It flows very close to the customs checkpost at Dawki with Jaintia Hills District on one side and East Khasi Hills District on the other. As it enters the plains of Bangladesh it loses its beautiful color and becomes heavily strewn with rocks and small boulders. Local fishermen give boat rides to people visiting the area and sing songs while rowing he boat.

Located at the end of the Guwahati-Shillong-Dawki Road, Dawki is a small town well known for its sweet, juicy orange markets.

I took the photograph from a hill, near the beautiful suspension bridge (built by the British colonial rulers before India's independence).
