What is the Shillong Cherry Blossom Festival?
Shillong Cherry Blossom Festival is the only autumn flower festival of India, celebrated each year in November when the city appears to be painted white and pink with flowers. Unlike the spring flowers of Japan, Meghalaya cherry blossoms bloom during autumn, and the tourists are thus provided with a different perspective.
The festival is not alone—there is a live music concert, cultural dance, local cuisine, art exhibition, and green workshop. There is just too much to see on one's own with Move On Leisure. One gets to experience the beautiful Shillong Cherry Blossom Festival events and the undiscovered beauty of hills and lakes in Meghalaya.
What Can You See During the Festival?
Cherry Blossom Scenic Walks – Walk along Wards Lake and Shillong Golf Course, both covered with flowers.
Cultural Festival – Observe tribal dances, folk shows, and art displays.
Local Craft & Food Stalls – Sample Khasi food and buy homemade handicrafts.
Night Glow & Light Displays – Observe regal lights convert pink flowers into a fairyland.
For nature lovers visiting the Shillong spring festival, the travel guide says mid- or late November would be a good time to see when the blooming is at its best.
What Are Some of the Activities That One Can Do During the Festival in Shillong?
There is more to do than gazing at flowers. Some of the best-improved Shillong Cherry Blossom Festival activities include:
- Photography Tours – Capture the pink bloom in front of city lakes and parks.
- Biking & Nature Walks – Ideal for adventure enthusiasts walking over flower-covered hills.

- Mawlynnong Village is the cleanest village in Asia, and the eco-tourism takes place in its purest form.
