Deep in the East Khasi Hills, a unique legend surrounds Mawlyngot Village—it was founded by monkeys! According to locals, a group of monkeys migrated from the forest and settled in this village. Thus, the culture of the Mawlyngot Village evolved with a blend of the monkey’s quirky behaviour and the traditional Khasi practices.

In honor of their monkey ancestors, the villagers celebrate the annual Monkey Dance Festival, where people dress as monkeys and dance to traditional Khasi music. This festival in Meghalaya, filled with joy and laughter, reflects the village’s rich culture and deep-rooted traditions.
