Dain Thlen Falls: Located near Sohra (Cherrapunjee) is the Dain Thlen Falls named after Thlen (Khasi word for python), which according to local legend personifies evil. Legend has it that once upon a time, the people decided to rid themselves of evil, captured the Thlen and killed it at the wide flat rock over-looking the waterfall. A mighty feast was prepared and the entire community partook of the flesh of the Thlen. One selfish person, however, stealthily hid a few pieces of the Thlen's flesh. Unfortunately for society, the Thlen regenerated himself from these few pieces and evil filled the world again. Scrars made by the axes used by the people to kill Thlen are still intact and visible.
