Meghalaya, known as the "Abode of Clouds," is a picturesque state in Northeast India characterized by its lush landscapes, abundant rainfall, and unique matrilineal culture among its dominant Khasi, Jaintia, and Garo tribes. The economy is primarily agrarian, with significant contributions from crops like rice, maize, potatoes, pineapples, and spices, alongside a growing commercial forestry industry and rich mineral resources such as coal and limestone. The cost of living in Meghalaya is generally lower than the Indian average, with Shillong being the most expensive city in the state, and the climate varies from tropical in the lower Garo Hills to pleasant with cold winters in the higher Khasi and Jaintia Hills.
