点评:Shillong peak is situated at 1965 meters above sea level and 10 km away from the city. We have visited the same after our first visit to Elephant Falls. This is highest peak of the city and offers panoramic view of the city. This location is under Air force control as this location serves as a radar station for the Indian Air force. One has to get the approval to enter inside and which is under continuous surveillance.
The city looks most attractive from here only when the sky is clear, as this peak is often bounded by fog due to its high altitude. There are many shops where you can shop local handicrafts and cloths. Also Food stalls are available here besides handcrafts shops.
Shillong peak is not just the highest point in shillong, but also a place of immense beauty, culture and History. Asides from city view, you can see the Bangladesh plains from the shillong peak. This is a truly unique view that can only be obtained from Shillong peak. The rare view of Bangladesh is something that one wouldn't see from any other part of India.

翻译:西隆峰海拔1965米,距离市区10公里。我们在参观过大象瀑布之后又前往了这里。这是市区内最高的山峰,可以欣赏到城市的全景。由于该地是印度空军的雷达站,因此由空军负责管理。进入此地必须获得许可,且全程处于监控之下。只有在晴天时,从这里眺望的城市才显得格外迷人。由于海拔较高,这座山顶常被雾气笼罩。这里有许多商店,可以购买当地的手工艺品和布料。除了手工艺品店外,还有食品摊贩。
希隆峰不仅是希隆市的最高点,更是一个充满美丽风光、文化底蕴与历史气息的地方。从希隆峰上不仅能俯瞰整个城市,还能看到孟加拉国的平原地带。这种绝美的景观唯有在希隆峰上才能领略到。从这里看到的孟加拉国景色十分罕见,这种景观在印度的其他任何地方都看不到。
参观小贴士:
1. 私人车辆禁止进入。售票处附近设有停车场,您可以将车辆停在那里。有获许可的出租车可搭载您前往西隆峰。除了军用车外,只有指定的出租车才被允许进入空军管辖区域。
2.入场费为每人50卢比;另外,车辆进入也需要支付费用,不过我记不清具体金额了。
3. 周三为假日,请据此安排您的行程。
4. 景区为游客提供了望远镜,可帮助您从高处观赏四周的景色。
5. 根据需求或随机检查,空军工作人员可能会要求出示身份证明。届时您必须提供有效的政府颁发的身份证件。因此,千万别忘记携带有效的身份证件。
开放时间:
上午09:00至下午03:30。每个周三都是假日。
