Mawsynram is the place that receives the highest amount of rainfall in the world. It receives an annual average rainfall of about 1140 cms. It is located on the Southern slopes of Khasi Hills in Meghalaya. Mawsynram is the rainiest place due to the high hills. It lies on the windward side of Khasi hills and receives monsoon from the Southwestern winds in the Bay of Bengal that carries a high amount of moisture. The hills lie in the pathway of these winds and cover an extensive area.
