Ever Living Museum

Nestled in the lush greenery of Mawshbuit, just a short drive from Shillong lies a treasure trove of culture and natural history—the Ever Living Museum. This unique museum is the brainchild of Mr. Kyntiewbor War, a retired Meghalaya government engineer whose passion for preserving the heritage of the region has culminated in this fascinating establishment.

The museum is divided into three main sections: the main museum, a stone museum, and a garden that showcases the rich biodiversity of Meghalaya. Visitors can explore miniature tree huts of the Garos, bamboo huts of the Khasi tribe, and traditional dresses and ornaments that reflect the diverse cultures of Meghalaya. The stone museum houses an impressive collection of stones, minerals, and fossils from around Meghalaya and beyond, including Italy and other parts of the world.

But perhaps the most enchanting part of the Ever Living Museum is its garden. Here, a variety of wild orchids, flowers, and fruit trees indigenous to Meghalaya thrive, offering a glimpse into the state's natural splendor. The museum not only serves as a repository of the past but also as a living exhibit that continues to grow and evolve, much like the evergreen state it resides in.

For those interested in the cultural and natural history of Meghalaya, a visit to the Ever Living Museum is a must. It's a place where the past coexists with the present, where one can immerse themselves in the rich tapestry of local traditions and the natural world. Whether you're a history buff, a nature lover, or simply curious, the Ever Living Museum offers an experience that is both educational and enchanting.
