The Dawki River, also known as the Umngot River, is a picturesque river in the Indian state of Meghalaya. It is famous for its crystal-clear waters, which give the appearance of floating boats. The river flows through the town of Dawki, which is near the India-Bangladesh border. The area is a popular tourist destination, especially for its scenic beauty and the Dawki Suspension Bridge, a colonial-era bridge that spans the river.

The clarity of the water is such that during certain times of the year, particularly in the dry season, the riverbed is visible, making it seem as though boats are gliding on air. The river is also a popular spot for boating and other water activities. The surrounding landscape, with its lush greenery and hills, adds to the charm of the area, making it a favored destination for nature lovers and photographers.
