What a beautiful gift of nature that a bigger rock is in this place in a such balanced way ...it seems somebody has kept it in that place in ancient time and not moving a single inch ....wow really eye catching view.
Asia's cleanest village with a view of the India Bangladesh border.
The whole place is like a big garden dotted with homestays.
If you are hard-pressed for time you can give it a miss.
A large rock balanced on a very small rock and perfectly stable... Can see the very small contact surface on which the Large rock balances... Science lovers will love it !!
It is just one KM before to the way to Mawlynlong( so called Cleanest Village)
Please please don't waste your time visiting this place. There are far far better places in India where you would find true balancing rocks. This one is not attached at a point rather on a larger surface. Lastly, they charge Rs10 per person for maintenance. They have zero maintenance. waste of time time, effort and money.
On the way to mawlynlong village you can find this place. It will be on the left side of the road and there is a entry fee. You can see there is a huge rock is balancing over a small piece of stone. It's amazing. Nature at its best.

No single scientific definition of the term exists, and it has been applied to a variety of rock features that fall into one of four general categories:
The Balancing Rock is ok and one time good to visit, but the weird fencing around / below the rock is something that makes it ugly...... Fencing can be around the ROCK to protect but the present one makes it ugly
