If shopping is your passion, then there are ample choices for you. Hand woven baskets, hand-woven shawls, handicrafts, orange flower honey and cane work can be the best buy from the local shops of Shillong. For authentic handicraft items, you can visit the Meghalaya Handicrafts, Khadi Gramodyog and Purbashree. The main shopping areas of Shillong are Police Bazaar, Bara Bazaar and Laitumukhrah, where a local weekly market is held. Forest-produced honey would be a particularly good buy. You can also pick up small souvenirs, as handmade knives, cotton bags, shawls, bamboo cutlery and other bamboo crafts. Also try some local fruit as sayang and saflang, sold wrapped in banana leaves. From the Government Emporium, pick up the traditional Khasi skirt in silk.
