One of the best museums in Shillong, Don Bosco Museum showcases the rich cultures of Northeast India—traditional clothing, lifestyle galleries, crafts, music, and community histories across multiple floors. Even if you’re not a “museum person,” the design and storytelling make it engaging, and it’s a top place to understand the region beyond sightseeing spots.
