UNESCO is considering adding Meghalaya's Living Root-Bridges to its index of World Heritage Sites.
We asked you dear readers to send us your photographs and describe your experience of visiting any of Meghalaya's root-bridges.

He sent us a few photographs and writes: 'We are here in Meghalaya with a group of friends. We stayed at Cherrapunji and trekked to the living root-bridges.

IMAGE: Biswajit Pal also visited Mawlynnong village in Meghalaya.
He says there are living root-bridges too near to Mawlynnong, 'one of the cleanest villages in Asia.'
'This bridge could be approached from both sides. Also, this bridge could be accessed easily as there are cemented stairs. A must visit,' says Biswajit.Photograph: Kind courtesy Biswajit Pal
Rajesh Taneja sent us this poem on the root-bridges penned by his 12-year-old daughter Nishika:
