How To Reach Ruparsor Bathing Ghat

Jowai, Meghalaya, India
Historical Significance: Ruparsor Bathing Ghat is a centuries-old historical site believed to have been commissioned by the Jaintia King for the ceremonial bathing of the royal family. The pool, intricately hewn out of solid granite, was a stopover for the kings and their families while traveling be tween their summer capital at Nartiang and their winter capital at Jaintiapur (now in Bangladesh). According to legend, the pool was created by two master masons, U Mar Phalangki and U Luh Lyngskor Lamare, under the King's directive. It is an archaeological gem that showcases the sophistication and artistic sense of the ancient Jaintia Kingdom. The site is often referred to as a "regal ghat" due to its exclusive royal use for cultural and religious rites before the performance of major ceremonies.:
