- [Narrator] They look like something

out of an Indiana Jones movie,

Bridges made out of living trees.

This is Nongriat, a remote village in Northeastern India

where locals have been growing bridges

for hundreds of years.

(speaking in foreign language)

That's Wiston Miwa, the head of the village.

He's lived here his whole life, since 1952.

(speaking in foreign language)

To get the roots to grow into a bridge across water

they use wire and old tree trunks to guide their path.
