Jaintia Hills
Dramatic limestone landscapes and rugged ridges of the eastern Meghalaya plateau.
Sylhet Plains
The emerald-green alluvial plains of Bangladesh stretching endlessly toward the south.
Surma River
The intricate, silvery meanders of the Surma river system cutting through the floodplains.

Mawsynram Ridges
The cloud-kissed ridges of the world's wettest region, often shrouded in dramatic mist.
