In Meghalaya, amidst passionate conversations among locals about the state’s splendid natural beauty, it’s often referred to as “God’s Own Creation”.

While the state’s iconic scenic topography hogs the limelight year-round, this nature’s masterpiece lies beneath the ground and is India’s fifth-longest cave.

Situated near Khaddum village in the East Jaintia Hills, locals refer to it as Sielkan — Pielkhlieng Pouk, the spot where underground water emerges.

It is a “resurgent cave”, where the mouth of the Krem Chympe river, which has gone underground elsewhere, resurfaces.

Nestled within imposing limestone cliffs, adorned with lush foliage, the cave beckons explorers with promises of unearthly beauty and untold secrets.

Approaching the mouth of the cave, adventurers are greeted by the embrace of the river, its depths shrouded in the darkness.

To venture forth, one must embrace the call of adventure, either swimming through the crystalline waters or by canoe or bamboo raft.

Entering Krem Chympe is akin to stepping into an adventure movie-set, where there is a prop on every step egging you to explore it.

The cave’s interior is a symphony of light and shadow, where smooth calcite formations lie hidden beneath the verdant canopy, a sheer proof to Mother Nature’s craftsmanship.

But Krem Chympe is more than just a geological marvel; it is a haven for life in all its forms.

Bats find sanctuary within the cave’s embrace, while the crystal-clear waters reveal a vibrant ecosystem teeming with water wonders.

Yet, with the privilege of exploration comes responsibility.

Navigating the depths of Krem Chympe requires careful planning and respect for its delicate balance.

Seeking guidance from local experts and treading lightly to minimise impact are essential for preserving this subterranean sanctuary for generations to come.

Emerging from the depths of Krem Chympe, one is left with a profound sense of awe and gratitude.

For in this hidden world, nature has unveiled its secrets, inviting visitors to witness its splendour and protect its fragile beauty for eternity.
