It has developed so much.... Cafeteria with big varieties, kids play area and fountains of elephant sculpture..... Very nice place.... But I cut one star as it don't provide proper parking guidance, when crowded. And it used to be a clam & peaceful place, now it's not.
One thing is superb there which I've not seen in any temple that it provides free of cost senior citizens'pass. With this pass, Seniors can use the lift and no need to stand in line. They also provide e-kart service for seniors!

Excellent place to relax, also the temple has great architecture both inside and outside, it feels like if you’re in a cave or something, I was really fascinated by the Lord Ganesha’s idols from different countries such as Afghanistan and China! Apart from that, the food court also had a variety of meals to provide, but when I was there at around 5 PM, it didn’t had any of my likings like falafel or tacos!

Situated in Prabhadevi Area. Shoes are handed in for safekeeping for a small donation ( not compulsory). Pay 50 rupees to join a faster queue. Purchase an offering of fruit, flowers, sweets, coconut from 100 rupees. The queue of worshippers enter the enclave and pay homepage to Lord Ganesha n request for their wishes to be fulfilled. Heavenly feeling .
Frequented by millions.The Lord Ganesha idol was built by using one stone and Lord Ganesha’s trunk is on the opposite side of his chest.

I recently visited the Shri Siddhivinayak Temple in Mehemdavad, India. The temple is dedicated to Ganesha, the elephant-headed god of wisdom and remover of obstacles. It is one of the most popular temples in India, and it is always crowded with devotees.
I felt a sense of peace and tranquility as I visited the temple. I felt like I was in a special place, where I could connect with my faith. I would definitely recommend visiting the Siddhivinayak Temple to anyone interested in Hindu culture or spirituality.
The atmosphere in the temple is one of devotion and reverence. The devotees are quietly chanting prayers and offerings to Ganesha. The air is filled with the smell of incense and flowers.

Shree Siddhivinayak Devasthan, located in Mahemdabad, Gujarat. is a unique temple that stands out for its impressive size and structure that was confirmed by Asia Book of Records and India Books of Records on June 4, 2023. It is the largest temple in Asia that features the face of Lord Ganesha.
The temple's construction was started on 8th January 2010, making it a relatively new addition to the city's religious landmarks. With a length of 120.98 feet, a breadth of 84.25 feet, and a height of 71 feet (including the 8-foot shikhar height), the temple's face and the structure of Lord Ganesha is a remarkable sight to behold. The temple is spread over an area of 22 bighas, making it an expansive religious complex that attracts thousands of devotees every day. Every day more than 1000 devotees from all over India and abroad visit the temple to seek blessings and worship the deity.

I highly recommend a visit to this divine sanctuary for anyone in search of peace and spiritual fulfillment.

Excellent just love ❤️ this place. This place is owned by Amul company itself. Located just outside the main production facility. All amul products are available here some of which are not available in local shops all across the country. Beside amul normal products atta, ketchup, cola , bread etc are available here. Quality is too good. Amul cola is good in taste. Keychup also tastes very good.

Factory outlet of amul right outside amul dairy. Huge place which offers all amul products including products which I haven't seen anywhere else. I wasn't aware that amul even produces bread until I visited this place. They also have a restaurant at this place where they serve some mouth watering food.

One of India's pride has always been Amul. It has held a place in every Indian's heart. Witnessing the home at Anand and being given a friendly tour, at absolutely no cost is what makes this place a must visit. The food plaza is also a must visit after the industrial tour.

Here you will get each and every product line of amul, ice cream, choclates, e.t.c. The only thing to be noted is that you will get everything on the same rates as you get on retail shops, no advantage of factory outlet.

The food here is surprisingly good and the quality is fantastic,
There are 2 options for seating you could either sit inside a restaurant kind of place or you can sit outside the outlet on the benches, both get pretty crowded on the weekends.
Great place to get a snack with your family or friends.
A series of cascades on a wide, rocky riverbed, with pools for swimming, accessed via a short hike.
Good for one day picnic. There is no big waterfall but multiple small waterfalls.
Only Maggi, corn, tea and some snacks items available. One should carry your own food.
Drummer Kong — Google review
It's a one day visit from Ahmedabad. The best time to visit is after the monsoon. The flow of the water is more and you can enjoy the fall with plenty of water. The surrounding nature is also magnificent. You can find different types of birds there. Visit in the morning for the best view.
Rutvik Joshi — Google review
Zanzari is a good place if you're looking for a time off. It is near to Dehgam and you can go by bike or car. You may have to park your vehicles 2 KMs because the rest of the route is all stone and you have to go by foot. Don't expect a BIG waterfall. It's small but good to visit for once.
Tanveer Ahmed — Google review
I had an unforgettable experience visiting this beautiful panoramic landscape. This place gifted us a lot of good memories to cherish for a lifetime.
I enjoyed the waterfall, though some places were a bit slippery.
If you are interested in a camel ride, just pay 150rs to avail the service
A serene place with so much to take back.
If God allows, I will visit this place once more, before I go back to settle at my native place.
I think a 2 wheeler would be the right choice for such a bumpy road.

It a good place to go. there is camel ride also.. it better to take eatable items with you together. On weekends it will be crowed weekdays is best to go. And if you are a person who loves nature it's a good place. But it bit scary as the water seems deep and risky and you can not spend more tha 1hr as there is nothing much to do

A natural place to visit.
It's a 1 day trip. People keep telling you should go there early morning like 6-7AM if you wanna enjoy , that's true if you go there in summer/ winter.However, if you plan it in Monsoon, don't worry about timing. You can reach there 9-10AM also as the weather will be the same there in monsoon all the day.
There will be food like maggie, Corn and wafers. There are 3-4 restaurants also in highways (Ahmedabad to Zanzari) so you can eat after visiting waterfall.
You can swim there as water was clean enough.
Go through my photos for your satisfaction. :)
Sahil Patel — Google review
Small waterfall but worth visiting. It'll be hard to find the road since it's not built properly and there's no sign that directs the turn and is narrow. Bring your own food if you want to eat because there's no shop that provides anything, and also bring your plastic garbage back. DO NOT LITTER. A bunch of douches have thrown plastics and plates after eating there.

Average place to spent time in weekends. Two to three stalls to buy limited items like Normal Maggie, tea and coffee available. Camel ride is available from parking to near waterfall. Too dark at after 6pm as there are no lights on roads till highway. In rainy season path may get difficult to travel. Best time to visit is after couple months of rainy season. There were only few people. There was a parking space where a stall uncle told us to keep vehicle but we did not park as no cars were parked at that place. But we went back and found an alternate route where others were present too.

Elaborately carved riverside temple dating from the 12th century & dedicated to Lord Shiva.
Awesome place... Temple is very old but it is not famous as it should be... Very nice carving from stone... After darshan at temple you can spent 2 to 3 hrs for barh at Riverbank... This is one of best place for bath in Mahi... It is very clean & not deep also.....

The temple is associated with Galav, the Rishi from Puranas and a devoted king Chandrahas from Hindu mythology.
The temple is the Monument of National Importance (N-GJ-144) protected by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI).
The shikhara as well as the mandapa of the temple collapsed in 1908.The restoration of shikhara was completed by ASI in September 2021.

Beautiful ancient temple. One shouldn't miss out goin to the mahi river that flows besides the temple. The water is flowing, and crystal clear. One can easily get some food and water as there are many stalls around this temple.
Prabhuti Tiwari — Google review
It’s a very good mandir of Mahadev Ji, along the bank of Mahi River. You can take a meditative dip in the river while you enjoy peace of the temple. Strictly not recommended visiting on a holiday if you want to have a peaceful and quality time. There is paid parking facility. And from there a few meters of walk to the temple. During the walk you will see lots of stalls and stores. So if you want to have a snack after the darshan, you can have it there. Recommended temple to visit nearby Ahmedabad. You can have a day trip here, there’s also Ranchodrao Ji Temple in Dakor nearby and Meladi Mata Mandir which you can visit. The enjoyment would be doubled if the weather is nice.
Gaurav Purohit — Google review
This is a nirandhara type of Saptaratha Bhumija style temple, of a regional variety, characterised by a central latina tapering from all sides, with minor spires decorating the central spire, It was built by using sand stone, comprises a garbhagriha and a mandapa with an eastern porch. The Shikhara was damaged. The sanctum is roughly circular outside while squarish in inner side. It has an exceptional plan of eight Bhadras. The mandapa is supported by eight inner pillars and sixteen outer smaller pillars. The doorway is profusely ornamented while walls having usual figural and decorative ornamentations. Stylistically, the temple belongs to the Solanki style of Guajarati architecture and datable to the late 12" century CE. The broken Shikhara was reconstructed in 2020-21.
now this temple is situated near the *sangam* of two rivers named galta/galti and mahi rivers.
the rivers flow through the rocky plateau. the waters are shallow so it is not risky to take a dip into the river as it is considered holy to take a dip into the sangam.
Neetu Surana — Google review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I recently had the privilege of visiting the Galteshvar Mahadev Temple near the Mahi River, and it was an awe-inspiring experience. The temple's unique architectural style, a mesmerizing blend of Nirandhara and Saptaratha Bhumija, immediately caught my attention. The central latina structure gracefully tapers from all sides, adorned with intricate spires that add to its grandeur.The temple's historical significance is evident in every detail. Crafted from sandstone, it boasts a garbhagriha and a mandapa featuring an enchanting eastern porch. The sanctum's circular exterior seamlessly transitions to a square inner layout with its remarkable eight Bhadras, creating an exceptional spiritual space.
What truly amazed me was the meticulous ornamentation adorning the entrance and walls. The profusely ornamented doorway and intricate figural decorations are a testament to the artistry of the Solanki style of Guajarati architecture, dating back to the late 12th century CE.
The temple's location near the sangam of the Galta/Galti and Mahi rivers adds to its allure. The serene rivers flow gently through the rocky plateau, forming a tranquil backdrop that enhances the spiritual experience. Taking a dip in the holy sangam is a cherished tradition, made even more inviting by the shallow waters.
I must mention that the recent reconstruction of the broken Shikhara in 2020-21 demonstrates the dedication to preserving this cultural gem. Visiting the Galteshvar Mahadev Temple was not just a journey through history but a profound connection with spirituality and natural beauty. A must-visit destination for anyone seeking a blend of architectural marvels and serene landscapes.🙏 #GalteshvarMahadevTemple #SpiritualSerenity #HistoricalSplendor

There is Mahi River backside of this Mahadev temple that's the attraction point of this Galteshwar mahadev temple.Water level and flow is medium so all family members can enjoy in the river.
Trouble:
1.Parking facilities are available but entrance and exit are the same location at a narrow area thus lots of rush at that parking area.
2. Very Crowded in weekend and Holiday.
3. Time Consuming to reach that location.
Suggestion:
1. Must Go in Weekdays.
2. Go with Two wheeler.

The pujari was very helpful & allowed us to give our preying directly to the Shivlingam which is 800 yr old according to information provided by pujari the Shivlingam came out of earth itself 800 yr back... so just go & enjoy the atmosphere....

Our recent family excursion to the 'Dinosaur Fossil Park and Museum' in Raiyoli, Balasinor, Gujarat 388265, was an absolute delight, especially for our kids. This exceptional destination exceeded our expectations in every way, making it a perfect outing for families.
Upon arrival, we were greeted by the sheer enormity of the museum, which is a fitting homage to these colossal prehistoric creatures. The first thing that caught our eye were the original dinosaur eggs on display, a truly remarkable sight that had our kids in awe. The opportunity to witness these ancient artifacts up close was an educational experience we'll never forget.
The museum houses an extensive collection of dinosaur skulls, each with its own captivating story. As our kids examined these fossils, they were transported back in time, imagining the world when these magnificent creatures roamed the Earth. The interactive exhibits and informative plaques provided rich context, making it a fantastic learning opportunity for young minds.
One of the absolute highlights of our visit was the thrilling 5D movie experience. Our kids were not only educated but thoroughly entertained as they embarked on a thrilling journey into the dinosaur era. The sensory immersion left a lasting impression, and they couldn't stop talking about it.
Throughout the museum, there are more than 10 galleries dedicated to dinosaurs, offering a comprehensive look into their lives. Our children were engrossed in learning about dinosaur biology, habitats, and evolution. The museum's commitment to education is commendable, and it's clear that they've created a space that both educates and entertains.
What truly stood out during our visit was the enthusiasm of the staff, who were eager to share their knowledge and engage with our children. They made the experience even more enjoyable, answering our kids' endless questions with patience and enthusiasm.
To top it all off, the entry cost is incredibly reasonable, at just ₹400 per person. Considering the wealth of knowledge, entertainment, and sheer joy this museum offers, it's a true value for money. You can get so much for ₹400, making it an accessible and enriching experience for everyone.
In summary, the 'Dinosaur Fossil Park and Museum' is an ideal family destination, especially for kids who have a fascination with dinosaurs. The combination of genuine artifacts, an immersive 5D experience, informative galleries, and affordable entry fees ensures that children not only enjoy their time here but also leave with a deep appreciation for the world of dinosaurs. Our family had an unforgettable day, and we highly recommend it to families seeking both education and entertainment in one remarkable place.

The museum is world-class, well planned and contains amazing amount of information, fossils, videos. Besides information, it is also kids friendly and those with good amount of interest can spend 3-4 hours easily. It is air conditioned. Approach is still a little difficult but it is worth to visit.

An absolute waste place. Do not visit this place as this place will completely spoil your expectations. This fossil park has fossils which appears like stones, if information board isn’t there on top of this so called fossils then every one will consider them as stones. In the name of fossil all you get to see is fragments arranged shapelessly.
Museum is OK but honestly nobody comes so far in the middle of nowhere to see some man-made statues of dinosaurs. The fossil park spoils your mood so much that no museum can uplift it.

I recently visited Balasinor Dinosaur Park last Sunday and initially had some concerns about transportation. Unfortunately, there was no transportation facility available, so you have to go with your personal car, bike, or other means of transportation. Public transportation options like buses, taxis, or rickshaws were not available, which was a bit inconvenient. However, this is just a minor issue and shouldn't deter you from visiting.
Once I entered the park, I realized that it is one of the best places I have ever visited. The museum was inaugurated by Vijay Rupani last year and offers a thorough insight into the world of dinosaurs. The staff at the park were local and not necessarily professional, but they provided an excellent experience through their interactions. They were knowledgeable and enthusiastic, making the visit even more enjoyable.
I purchased three tickets, including VR (Virtual Reality) and 5D experiences, along with the regular admission ticket. The total cost came to around Rs. 170 per person, which was reasonable considering the value provided. The museum showcased how dinosaurs existed millions of years ago, and it was incredibly informative. I highly recommend experiencing the VR and 5D attractions if you visit the site. They added an extra layer of immersion and excitement to the overall visit.
In conclusion, my experience at Balasinor Dinosaur Park was great. Despite the initial setback with transportation, the park itself offers a fantastic experience for dinosaur enthusiasts and anyone interested in learning about the prehistoric era. The museum is informative, and the addition of VR and 5D attractions makes it a must-visit place. Don't miss out on this incredible destination!

Amazing place. Must visit to experience the presence of dinosaurs. All the galleries are filled with precious knowledge and visual reality experience . 5D theater is the most amazing .
What i want to request is to keep the place clean .i found spitting of mava on the fossils and models kept for exhibition. Specially in gallery no. 8. Such a shameful and uneducated act by people . Also the 5D tickets are asked to buy inside the museum where that person charged us the same amt as decided but does not give the ticket or receipt. Authority should look into this matter.

Most fascinating Dinosaur park and museums. It’s located near the Balasinor town a bit remote place to reach but worth it. The open park which is spreading about the area of 72 hectares land. One can see both eggs and skeletons fossils preserved in Lameta formation limestone. on outcrop one can see the fossils of dinosaur spred throughout.
Must visit at least open outcrop in compare to museums.

It us workds 3rd best archeological site.
Really appreciable work has been done
Everytbing about dinosaur one can learn through videos and models.
Real eggs, vertebras, bones are oreserv6very niceky but not articulated or importantance given very nicely. There should be guided to exolaine at archeological site or atkeast there should be plates there so that one can read about all types of dinosaurs.
The 3D and 5D theatre steals the show. 70 rs ticket each
The working model of dinosaur is really unique experience.
Entry fees is 50 Rs.
I dont if they will develop this site more or close it. But i really wish they develop it more because they have already made itso beautiful. Preserved all the folis and the skeleton made from real moulds is so fascinating. One must definitely go there to enjoy as well as learn.
Honouring a Hindu goddess, this historic temple includes a ropeway & an annual pilgrimage festival.
Really well maintained by government with aminities such as ropeway it's easy for elder to reach out there easily. 1600 steps will take 1hr 30 minutes with few breaks for adults. Many stalls are there for having quick bite during climbing.

Had wonderful experience in this temple.
Its long and challenging trip to get into this place. It’s really worth though.
Get a cab or bus to get to top of hill, buy the gondolas 🚠 and experience that as well.
Views are spectacular from bottom to top and vice versa.
The temple are beautifully structured and devotees are experiencing the divine feelings after climb on barefoot steps under the hot sun.
Please enjoy this place with spend at least 30min sitting on the floor of temple.
The marbles are giving your cool energy and positivity.

Temple with a very positive aura.. The idol of Maataji is very powerful. The big eyes of idol are so mesmerizing.
Once you enter the cable car entrance, it will take another 1 hour to board the cable car. Once you exit the cable car, you need to climb some steep steps, I think appox 500. We did not bypass the cable car, but stairways showed 1800 steps and 45 mins to reach temple.
Cable cars come at a price of 150 both ways and 120 one way (Normal ticket).
Parking space is available near the temple at ₹100. Many people park on the road on the way to avoid this expense.
Also no need to take off your shoes at the beginning. You have shoe stands at the entrance of the temple.

Most people go up the mountain by motorbike or car. But you can also hike up all the way to the temple. Be aware of the monkeys though.
Closer to the temple there are a lot of booths selling water, food and souvenirs. From time to time there was a herd of donkeys making their way up or down transporting gas containers and other things.

Pavagadh Sri Mahakali mataji temple is located on Pavagad hills in Panchamahal district Gujarat and also 50 km from Vadodara city also known as Baroda.
This temple is one of the Shaktipeeth among 51 shaktipeeth in India.Sati ma's right toe fell on this mountain.
we hired a car to travel to this temple from Baroda we never heard about this temple and this temple was not on our trip. One of my relative suggested visiting Pavagadh it will be beautiful and will have a great experience so we thought of visiting this temple We were excited to see this temple.
We can reach this temple top by 2-ways
1.By Footway(total 3000 steps).
2.Rope way.
We picked the Rope way option because we didn't have much time to walk to the top of the mountain even though after picking the ropeway option we needed to climb steps for 200-400 at least it will take 20-30 mins of time.
Getting into the ropeway there will be a huge queue there because the majority of the people picked the Rope way option, waiting for the ropeway allotment you need to wait until turn. If the rush is full it will take 1-2 Hours for waiting in the queue to board the ropeway.
Ropeway journey will be around 10-15 minutes watch out while boarding and deboarding in the ropeway,in the ropeway chamber only 6 people were allowed because 6 people is the limit.
While traveling to the temple way you can see many shops will be selling coconut and Pooja items and also a few snacks vendors.
Some Jain temples were there too on this temple while reaching the temple top we can see them and small ponds also available from the temple top view.
While walking on temple steps I observed a few things that surprised me:-
1. One old lady is walking with the help of a stick climbing the steps to visit Kali Mata temple.
2.One physically handicapped lady also climbs the steps with devotion.
Not only these 2 people I can see many old people visit this temple by walking with bare legs.
I was surprised by their devotion 👏👏👌 where Kalimata is called as Shakti she give Shakti to the people who are willing to climb steps to visit Kali Mata temple.
I was also worried about my parents with the grace of Kali Mata they didn't face any trouble in the climbing steps to visit the temple.
Usually there will be a rush in this temple the day I visited the people's rush was normal.
After reaching the temple it will take less time to complete Kali Mata Darshan.
Prasad also will be selling beside the temple each box costs 50 rupees at least by one try that Prasad.
This temple was renovated in the time of Modi ruling time and also some development works are still going on at the top of the temple.
Darshan is free no ticket and money culture in this temple.
In Puranas Rishi Vishwamitra did Tapasya on this mountain for Kali Mata later Kali Mata blessed Rishi Vishwamitra and Vishwamitra river is originated from this Pavagad hills area the same river flows through Vadodara city.
I wish everyone would visit this Kali Mata temple when you are in Baroda.
Everything is organised in the temple premises and also at ropeway services as well I liked it.
Jai Hind.

The temple is one of the Shakti Pithas and that is why has great importance. The best way to reach the temple is to take the ropeways which cost 150₹ two-way, and make sure to book the tickets online to get direct entry, offline tickets can take more than 3 to 4 hours in the queue.
After getting down to the ropeway station one has to climb more than 200 steps to reach the temple, the steps are newly constructed. The Mandir is well-organised and you can take the darshan within half an hour during the normal time.
The view from the top is breathtaking and mesmerizing.
Jai Mata Di.

Pavagadh Hills is a rugged peak that may have been fortified in the 8th century. It boasts a circa-10th-century complex of Hindu temples, including the important Kalikamata Temple dedicated to Kali, the goddess of destruction. The summit offers stunning views and attracts throngs of pilgrims who can ascend via a two to three-hour trail or take a shuttle halfway up from along the Champaner citadel's south wall before catching a cable car.
Such a hilarious and beautiful place. It's a tample of Hindu goddess "maa kaali". Must visit once. There is around 2000 steps to be climb. Rope way is also available to climb, it charges 133 rs per person.

it is believed as a salvation place of Lav and Kush (son of Ramachandra). In recent history, human settlement occurred around the second century after the hill became associated with the goddess Kali. It is believed that the foot of Parvati fell on this hill, making it sacred.[citation needed] Legend states that the hill's formation is attributed to the sage Vishwamitra Rishi, who lived here in bygone days. He had a cow named Kamadhenu. One day, the cow slipped while grazing and fell into the valley, which resulted in the cow attempting to scramble up the hill. Finally she produced milk, which filled the valley, and swam to higher ground. The Rishi learned of the mishap, and in order to prevent any such incident in the future, he prayed to the gods to fill the valley. The gods fulfilled his prayers with one fourth of a hill projecting out of the plains, Pavagadh Hill.[16]
Known for its forts, there are also dozens of heritage structures on the hill.[2] It is part of the Champaner-Pavagadh Archaeological Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.[1][11][17]

Nice hill located some 45km from vadodara, you can travel by bus from vadodara if you are budget traveler.
History:It is said that king Vanraj Chavda established Champaner at the foot of Pavagadh in fond memory of his wise minister Champa. Later, the Patai Raval family ruled it and took care of the boundary. The folk tales say that Mahakali assumed the form of a woman and danced in a Garba during Navaratri. The last Patai, Jaisinh watched her with dirty looks. The deity became angry at Jaisinh and cursed him that the town will fall. The Muslim emperor of Gujarat, Mahmud Begada assaulted Pavagadh and won the hill on the boundary in the 15th century.
Patai was defeated and killed. Mahmud Begada shifted his capital from Ahmedabad to Champaner for some time for reasons of diplomacy. He developed the town by constructing buildings such as the fort of Champaner, Uohra mosque, Mandavi, Kirtistambh, the temple of Shalkh, Jama Masjid, Nagina Mosque, and Kevda Mosque. The remains of the Palace of Begada are still found near Vad Talav (Banyan Pond) two kilometers (1.25 miles) away from Champaner by road.
The government has granted many concessions and offered subsidies to the new industries coming up in this area. As a result of it, Halol and Kalol towns near Pavagadh have turned into virtual industrial estates. A film studio at Halol has this added advantage.
Pavagadh is the gateway to Panchmahal. The locations of hilly areas around Halol provide good scenery. Pavagadh Hill has total height of 822 meters and you can find many scenic trails to climb including waterfalls during monsoon time. On the hill's eastern side, the Rangpur Ashram run by Mr. Hari Parikh works towards the upliftment of the local tribals. The plateau at an altitude of 490 meters is known as Machi Haveli. The bus service has been extended up to Machi.

🏞️❄️ Exploring Pavagadh Hills in peak winters is an absolute delight!
The rugged terrain takes on a whole new enchantment when blanketed in a layer of pristine white smoke.
The historical significance of Pavagadh adds an extra layer of intrigue to the experience, with ancient temples and ruins standing as silent witnesses to centuries gone by. 🏰🚶♂️
Traversing the snow-covered trails, you'll be greeted by breathtaking vistas of the surrounding countryside, offering a sense of awe and wonder.
The iconic Mahakali Temple, perched atop the hill, stands as a symbol of spiritual serenity amidst this winter wonderland.
🙏🌨️ After a day of exploration, cozying up in local accommodations, perhaps with a crackling fire and a hot cup of tea, provides the perfect ending to an unforgettable day.
Pavagadh in winter truly is a place where history, nature, and seasonal beauty harmonize in perfect symphony. Enjoy every moment! ❤️🌨️🚶♀️

The fort is quite good! You can visit this after darshan from Pavagad. Here you can spend lot of time watching forts and masjid can click some pictures. Here there is an entry ticket which you have to buy to watch all these forts which costs around 50/- per person at time I’ve gone. Now maybe the price might get varied. But it is worth to watch.

Nice and good place. Religious place of goddess mahakali. It is very good place to go with children and family. The temple is very good and quite visitors place. You have to climb 3000 steps to have a pretty view of goddess mahakali. Those who can't climb the mountain from stairs are availed with rope way to have a scene of temple without climbing the mountain by your own legs. The morning and evening view of temple from down to the mountain is quite pretty. I must suggest to must go once in your life.

The entire archeological park is filled with some grand and some small but beautiful structures. Most of them are ruins of masjids but they have been maintained quite well. Jami and Shehar Masjid are the highlights as they are closest to the town and also the grandest. The other points of interest are Kevada, Nagina and Kamani Masjids and Badatalav. It takes 2-3 hours to do all of them because they are spread across 4-5 kilometers. Try to visit in the morning or late evening to avoid the heat and the crowd. All the sites are located at the foothills of Pavagadh temples and hence roads can get extremely crowded with devotees on certain days.

This has been declared a world heritage site by UNESCO. If interested in history & art, one must visit this place. It showcases the ancient architecture. If one is really interested, one may require about two hours at this place.
The site is surrounded by lush green garden which has a population of langoors. They did not disturb us and appeared unharmful.
As our group had people interested in architecture, we did spend time discovering the ancient marvel.
We could not spot washroom facility.

Must visit Unesco World Heritage Site. 40 rs for Tickets if you pay offline.. 35 for only... Mostly tickets is sold only on sahar ki masjid and jami masjid monument.... It's a big site and monument is scattered around 7-8 km range. You have to walk so wear comfortable shoe and try to visit this site between Oct to March. 14-15 century Mosque and Makbara Architecture is amazing you can easily spend 2 days here. Stay option also available here .

A lot of history just left to disintegrate. There is no guide and no proper information on how to visit the site . There is dirt, cow dung and cows everywhere- overall a frustrating experience. UNESCO should stop funding this neglect.

How history could be seen is through the ancient architecture standing tall gleaming through the past the golden period that had elapsed... So is the champaner mosque here alomwith the bhadra gate the incrinate designs are beautiful and the whole village from the time past is being settled inside the fort as remenents are found all around.. The place have the unique mata mandir one of the shaktipeeth at hilltop with various other places to watch and walk around

The Champaner Archaeological Park is one of the world's heritage sites in Gujarat.
The site offers ruins of various beautifully carved mosques which reflect Indo-Islamic architecture. There are several small and big mosques like Badi Masjid, Choti masjid, Jama Masjid, Kewada Masjid, Nagina Masjid and the Fort area etc.
The sad part is that almost all the sites are very badly maintained or not at all maintained. The roads to reach the sites are really in bad condition, at some sites your vehicle is not accessible and one has to walk to reach the site. The connectivity to Champaner from the big cities is very poor and there are no direct trains to reach here. The ideal option is to travel to and from Vadodara. Very few stays are available here, I mean very few.
The structures and architecture are the things to be appreciated but at the same time government should take some precautionary actions to save these structures.

UNESCO world heritage place champaner is gem for one who are archeology and history enthusiasts. It is around 2hr from vadodara.Bus route is comfortable and feasible.Bus drops you at pavagadh bus stop. The entry to fort of champaner is just opp bus stop.Various masjids are spread across champaner,there architecture will astonish you with story of evolvement in different era and dynasty. Travelling within from one masjid to other can be little tiering if you are dependent on public transport or autos. You can also visit virasat van ,kabutarakhana with serene view of lake.
If you wish to visit pavagadh godess temple you should reach early in morning as climbing and coming down can take around 5 hours.

Quaint town with rich legacy and heritage and monuments.
Hathni Mata Temple is a serene and picturesque Hindu temple located near Jund Hanuman and Pavagadh. It is an ideal place to visit during monsoon season as it offers stunning natural beauty and is perfect for photography. The temple of Lord Shiva nearby adds to the peaceful ambiance of the place, providing visitors with solitude from their fast-paced lives. Hathni Mata Temple is known for its rejuvenating energy, making it an excellent spot to refresh one's mind.
Totally recommended place for hiking lovers.
But never go there as a single person, always go with a group, or minimum 3 people.
The reason for not going alone is, the place is very spooky, initially during the day I am very sure you would not feel it, but as the evening hours start you would feel it, and trust me when I say that.
Also the rocks might hurt you when you go in the waterfall beside the temple, so always wear your footwear while going in the water.
BRIEF OF THE TEMPLE: The temple stone is in the shape of an elephant, and therefore it is called hathni mata. Beside the holy stone is another stone in the shape of a turtle, all of it is made from a single stone.
NOTE: The waterfall is not available for 12 months, only in the monsoon season you will be able to see the rushing flow of water and green land else it's just rocks and trees, good for mountaineers

Such a peaceful place to visit specially in monsoon, a must visit place if you are visiting Jund Hanuman, best nature, best place for photography too.

Kunal Patil — Google review
The Hathni Mata Temple located in Vadodara is a hidden gem that offers a truly unique and breathtaking experience for visitors. One of the main highlights of this temple is the stunning waterfall that flows down from the hills behind it, creating a truly awe-inspiring atmosphere.
The temple is especially beautiful in the summer months, when the lush greenery surrounding the temple is in full bloom and the waterfall is at its most impressive. However, it should be noted that since the temple is located in a village, visitors should not expect all the modern amenities and facilities that they would find in a city.
Despite this, the natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere of the temple more than make up for any lack of facilities. It is highly recommended that visitors bring their own vehicles to the temple, as public transportation may not be readily available in the area.
Overall, if you are looking for a serene and awe-inspiring temple experience that is off the beaten path, Hathni Mata Temple is definitely worth a visit. Just make sure to come prepared with your own vehicle and a sense of adventure!

I think off monsoon season is not the beat choice to visit this place. I visited this place in feb 2021, there id no waterfall but he place was very quiet and peacefull. Also got the chance to see mataji very closely and to click a lot of pics. Local peoples are also very friendly and helpful. Our route was started from pavagarh , so the road was passing through a jungle , which scared my wife but i was having too much fun.We are planning ti visit again in monsoon season, then i will update you again.

4. Online bookings is available for tent hotel for food is near. Food is simple but taste is good. Tha main thing is that mobile network is very weak in Ratanmahal so you can enjoy a lot if your group is big. Best season to visit is monsoon and winter

Monsoon bliss at its best with gushing waterfall and trek by the river on the hill made my weekend amazing. The pathway is quite rocky and tough for beginners but the waterfall at the tops makes it worth the efforts. Don't miss out taking a dip in the pool of the waterfall. the rocks might be slippery due to algae so be very careful. Don't carry any plastic as its a plastic prohibited zone.

Vadodara to Ratanmahal Monsoon Trip review:
A perfect one day trip with amazing bike experience of riding inside the sanctuary. Road is uneven but that's what riders want right. Amazing top view with full of fog and beutiful scenery view creates when rain happen. Peaceful and perfect place for one/two days family/weekend trips. Must go for trekking towards the Waterfall and visit Sukhidam too.
Leave footprints NOT plastic. Be a responsible traveller/tourist.

The Hindola Mahal, located in Mandu, is a part of a ruined palace complex that served as a historic meeting place. It features ogee arches and a large main hall. The palace was built alongside Jahaz Mahal to showcase the engineering excellence of ancient times, with underground wells making it even more elaborate.
Hindola Mahal – meaning Swing palace is so named due to its sloping side walls. The Hindola Mahal might have been constructed during the reign of Hushang Shah
Amol Bhandarkar — Google review
Adjoining the famous Jahaj Mahal, Hindola Mahal forms Parrt of the heritage royal buildings complex in Mandu.This historical building has slanting outer walls at an angle of 77° and thus it presumably gives the look of a swing. Frankly I could not visualize it as a swing. That apart, the building looks beautiful. There are other buildings. The surrounding are very well maintained.
Adjascent to Hindola Mahal, there are other smaller monuments worth seeing.

Hindola Mahal – meaning Swing palace is so named due to its sloping side walls. The Hindola Mahal might have been constructed during the reign of Hushang Shah about 1425 C.E. but may date to the end of the 15th century during the reign of Ghiyas al-Din. It is one of a set buildings making up the royal palace complex at Mandu, which consists of the Jahaz Mahal, the Hindola Mahal, the Taveli Mahal, and the Nahar Jharokha. The Hindola Mahal may have been used as an audience chamber.The plan of the Hindola Mahal is a T-shape, though examination of the exterior walls leads to the conclusion that the crossbar was added later. The vertical mast of the plan consists of one main hall measuring 30 by 18 metres (98 by 59 feet) and 12 metres (39 feet) high. Its lateral walls are 3 metres (9.8 feet) thick and further reinforced by massive inclined buttresses that angle over 77 degrees. These highly inclined buttresses give the Hindola Mahal (Swinging Palace) its name. They also neutralize the outward force of five massive arches that once supported the large flat roof of the main hall. On each exterior of the long sides of the main hall are six recessed arches which hold doors in their lower sections and three slabs of open-work stone windows to let in air and light. A high wall holds battlements on the roof of the building.

Hindola Mahal where hindola means swing. This mahal was built for swings during rainy seasons by mughals. It is located inside jahaz mahal.
abhi chauhan — Google review
Hindola, meaning swing, named so because of the slant walls of the palace that resemble the swing shape. The story of how this Mahal had both Hindu and Muslim queens living together worshipping their respective deities in turns still runs. The fact that you can stand right where the cultural events were held, and can see the seatings of the royals felt surreal.

The entire fort complex within the Jahaj Mahal of mandu is steeped in history, it's not only absolutely stunning but also such an experience.

According to a Sanskrit inscription, Mandu was a 6th century fortified town, that was established as a fort capital in the 11th century by the Parmar rulers. This ancient city tells stories of a romance between Prince Baz Bahadur and Rani Roopmati and has several palaces, tombs, mosques, pavilions and rock-cut caves.

The whole complex of Mandu is so so rich and so beautiful. Every monuments has a story behind it on which it stands tested against the tide of centuries and different kings and their kingdom. After hearing the story and the purpose of the complex it's all worth it. Would recommend blindly to anyone to visit this place and feel the heritage first hand. Kudos to ASI again for the maintenance of the heritage so that the future can witness this beauty as it is.

Hindola Mahal is Artistic, Beautiful Unique Structure !
Hindola Mahal Built by Hushang Shah, probably around A.D. 1425 as a Durbar hall.
The walls are inordinately thick and slope like those of a castle. The slope of over 77 degrees gives a swinging appearance to the building, hence the name.
The plan is 'T' shaped. The upright stem being the main hall (which was built first), and the cross bar is a transverse portion added later.
The structure was probably supposed to have the zenana place as another storey above the main hall, which would explain the bulk and strength of the walls.

Jahaz Mahal, also known as the Ship Palace, is a fascinating architectural wonder located in Mandu, India. Constructed during the 15th century under the rule of Sultan Ghiyas-ud-din Khilji, this palace is renowned for its unique design that gives it the appearance of a floating ship between two artificial lakes. The name "Jahaz Mahal" reflects this distinctive feature.
Peaceful and calm place. This place will boost your creativity. I went there with my family. I loved the place immediately, enjoyed photography. It is well maintained and really good for photo shoot.

Jahaj Mahal got its name because it looks like a ship. They claim that the palace is actually surrounded by water and takes on the appearance of a ship during periods of severe rain when the nearby water bodies begin to overflow. It's a beautiful piece of architecture and demands your attention.

Jahaz Mahal in Mandu, Madhya Pradesh, India, is like a time machine. It's an old and beautiful building surrounded by calm and peaceful nature. It's a great place for people who love history and for those who like to explore.
This building looks like a ship, and it was built with amazing skill a long time ago. If you enjoy taking pictures, this place is perfect for you. There are many interesting things to see inside.
You can take a relaxed walk in the big open area and enjoy the beauty of the building. You can also explore the different rooms, outdoor spaces, and ponds. It's like stepping into the past.
But some things could be better, like how they take care of the place and the signs that tell you about it. Even so, Jahaz Mahal is an important historical site that you should visit. Don't forget to take pictures and learn about Mandu's history.

It is 120-meter-long 'Jahaz Mahal' built between two artificial lakes, Munj Talao and Kapur Talao, is an elegant two-storeyed palace. With its open pavilions, balconies overhanging the water and open terrace, Jahaz Mahal is an imaginative recreation in stones of a royal pleasure craft.Great architecture and nice landscaping with nice and beautiful gardens and lakes and water bodies. With advanced technologies like water pumping and water filtration and ample area this palace is beautiful and nice yet very soothing and calm place.

An architectural marvel, and probably one of the best maintained archeological heritage sites in India, with a beautiful manicured garden in its front. With water bodies on two sides, it presumably gives the look of an anchored ship and thus named Jahaz (ship) Mahal.
Jahaz Mahal is one of the most prominent and beautiful part of the entire cluster of historical monuments in Mandu. This stunningly beautiful monument deserves a place in the list of world heritage sites.
It's a two storeyed building, and we got an excellent view from the rooftop. There are approximately 35 steps (wide with reasonable height) to reach the rooftop. Both me and my wife are Sr. Citizens and could comfortably take the steps.

Limited parking available on side. Approach road is often blocked by vehicles parked in front of dhabas which include tractor and water tanker.
You can do nothing but wait for them to finish their job.
Ticket window is located on the right of the gate. On entry there's a museum on the right and guest rooms on top of it over looking the Kapoor taal.
Jahaz Mahal is on your left. From here you can over look the other lake. Little ahead ther are couple of Bawadis, Hindola Mahal, Shahi Hamam, the royal palace.
There's resting place under trees. Earlier it had a cafeteria but noe closed. You can eat your tiffin here.
Outside you have a few curio shops and Dhabas. Here you can get local delicacies. Dall Bafala/ Baati or Daal Paaniye (Bafala or Baati are made of wheat flour whereas Paniye are made of Maize flour and heavy). You can indulge in pleasure 😊

Sunrise - sunset. The 110-m-long and 15-m-broad double-storeyed building is located on a narrow strip of land between the Munj Talao and Kapur Talao, giving the appearance of a ship in water. probably built by Sultan Ghiyathuddin Khalji in the later part of the 15th century. It served as a large harem for the sultan and accommodated a staggering 15,000 women. Later it also served as the residence of Noor Jahan, the favourite queen of Mughal Emperor Jahangir. The southern end of the double - storied building has a stairs leading directly to the terrace. The northern end of the terrace contains a swimming pool of floral design there is a similar pool just below it on the first floor. The terrace has two domed pavilion on the southern and northern end of the long Jahaz Mahal. The northern pavilion is not at the very end of the terrace but just south of the swimming pool.
Hoshang Shah's Tomb is a part of a 6th-century fort complex that exhibits remarkable architecture featuring ornamental tiles, arches, and a marble dome. It is located in Mandav and is believed to have inspired the design of the Taj Mahal. The tomb is well-maintained and preserved, situated beside Jami Mashjid with easy access from there. Visitors can experience tranquility here and are advised to visit during peak monsoon season for an enhanced experience.

Hoshang Shah's tomb is situated in the middle of the courtyard of the majestic mausoleum, surrounded by square-shaped walls. One can enter the mausoleum from the entrance gate, (which is built on a square plan with a marble dome) in the middle of the northern wall. The tomb of Hoshang shah is a grand construction, having a square plan and a dome. It is built on a basement of remarkable width and height. The entire building including the dome is covered in marble, providing majestic atmosphere. It is interesting to note that the main entrance and stairs are situated in the south side, the other side of the entrance to the courtyard.
In the four corners of the domed roof, there are constructions with battlements and small domes. They are above the basements, which are built along with a dome. There are plant decorations extending from the edge of the roof and the eaves. They are coloured in red and black, accenting the marble building. Hindu patterns can be observed in the decorations. Considering these and other patterns inside the tomb chamber, we can assume there was involvement of Hindu workmen from the neighbouring towns.

Considered as first White Marble Monument of Bharat, Hoshang Shah's Tomb is a nice place for tourists as well as history lovers. The site is well maintained by ASI & one has to purchase entry tickets for Jami Mosque & Tomb collectively. One can be enthralled by the echo of the sound inside the the Tomb. Outskirts provides a breathtaking view of Jami Masjid.

Hoshang Shah's tomb, lies beside the Jami Masjid in Mandu and is said to have been the inspiration for the Taj Mahal. while I'm unsure if that's the absolute truth or not, the tomb itself is definitely very very beautiful and very well maintained and definitely a must visit when in Mandu.

Hosang Shah's tomb is a part of the Village group of monuments in Mandu. The village group consists of Jama Masjid, Hosang Shah's tomb and Asarafi Mahal and has a common ticket. It's very well maintained by ASI.
Best time to visit it is during monsoons.
It's claimed that this monument was the inspiration behind Taj Mahal. No one is buried here.
It's a beautiful monument and a photographer's delight. Inside the sound echoes.

Mandav is the great place to explore history must go and explore with guides so much interesting.
Roopmati Pavilion, a palace with a romantic history, was built by Baz Bahadur for his beloved Roopmati. It offers stunning views of the Narmada River and is part of the ancient rock-cut architecture dating back to the 5th and 6th centuries. Originally an army observation post, it later became Roopmati's residence. The palace is meticulously maintained and surrounded by lush greenery, adding to its charm.
Visited this gorgeous place in the month of September. It is a bit of 300 metres climb diagonally from the vehicle parking place. Absolutely gorgeous views all around the site and a must visit site for those visting Mandu.
However, on a side note, there are no suitable sanitation facilities in the shop/stall/restaurant area immediately around the site so visitor should mind that.

I read about this place in the book "Mandur Roopmati" by Buddhadeb Guha and hence I had to see this. It is a nice little palace on a hill top. You have to hike a little up from the front gate. But be sure to buy tickets from below which is far down from the palace. You can see a pretty view of the valley from here.

Visited this wonderful place in January. Beautiful example of rain water harvesting. The rock structure has a 3 floors bottom one was used as horse stable. Above that was room used for soldiers to stay. Top was used as watch tower.
Building is having slope structure so as to store a water at one place. The water circulation system in the whole pavillion shows the architectural knowledge of peoples at that time.

Like the Baz Bahadur Palace the Roopmati Pavilion also predates Baz Bahadur. Going by its strategic location on a hill top at the very southern end of the plateau, it is quiet likely it servea as a military outpost keeping an eye on invading armies. It was later converted into a pleasure house by Baz Bahadur for his favourite lover Roopmati, who is to graze at the Narmada from the pavilion. The pavilion consists of two structure built at different level. The base of the upper structure coincides with the top of the lower structure and thus providing a double storied appearance. The overall structure is
U - shaped with a with a neatly maintained garden in the middle. The Roppmati's Pavilion contains massive arched passages complete with water channels to keep the palace cool from the scorching heat of Mandu. The terrace provides great views of the Nimar plains stretching all the way to the Narmada River. Like the Baz Bahadur's Palace the terrace contains two domed pavilions. It was probably from here Roopmati watched the Narmada flow and refused to eat, when the river was not visible.

One of the many great places to see in Mandu . This was earlier built as a Army observation post . Built of sandstone - Rani Roopmati lived at this palace later. She used to have an avid interest in singing and worshipped Maa Narmada . The river Narmada could be seen from the top as a stream on a clear day.
Cleanliness is kept at every inch of the palace. Surrounding Greenery is what gives this palace its charm.
Fact - This palace strategically separates Nimar and Malwa Plateau .

This place is awesome ❤️, if you are fan of " taji taji hawa" you should visit it . This pavallian is built for Rani roopmati so that she can see and mismerise the beuty of holy narmda river which is 15 Km away (approx ) from here , but the pavallian is built at very high altitude so that Rani can easily see narmda maaiya , also there is a garden 🏡 to spent time in for rani , and one more historical thing here is "juhari khana" when Raja Baaj bahadur is dead in the war of sarangpur all the ladies including rani roopmati of the state has committed suicide by burning their ownself alive in this juharikhana. But it is built very unique and if you visit in morning 🌻 , you will find lots of flowers and 🐦 birds whispering , ☮️ peace 🕊️

Beautiful Architecture, Breathtaking view. You can see the Narmada river flowing in the distance if you look hard enough on a clear day.
The drive is slightly challenging for visitors from out of state not used to the unruly traffic in this entire district. Parking is ample but its management is atrocious. My vehicle was blocked by a very smart person when I came back from the monument. Many many others were as well. Never seen such bad traffic sense, unruly driving and parking sense in 20 Indian states that I have visited. Deducted 1 point from the review due to this experience that needs to improve.

This temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva built in Nagar Style. This temple is testimony to the architectural skills of the Maratha workmen who constructed this temple on the bank of Narmada River. It took 34 years to build this temple and at a cost of 1.5 crore Indian rupees. at that time it was huge cost. This temple is visible from long distance due to its strategic location.
Eventhough this temple is dedicated lord shiva, Pillars have statues of Dashavatar of Vishnu starting Matya, Kurma, Varaha, Narasimha, Vamana, Parashurama, Rama, Krishna, Budha and Kalki Avatara's. There is beautiful and pleasant Rama temple inside this temple surroundings.

"The Enchanted Garden" is an absolute gem of an experience that left me spellbound. From the moment I stepped foot into the garden, I was transported into a magical world filled with beauty and wonder. Every element, from the stunning flora to the captivating soundscape, was meticulously designed to create an ethereal atmosphere.
The attention to detail was extraordinary. The lush, vibrant flowers seemed to glow with an otherworldly radiance, while the strategically placed lighting enhanced the garden's mystical allure. As I strolled along the meandering pathways, I encountered charming surprises at every turn—a hidden waterfall, a whimsical sculpture, and even a softly tinkling wind chime that added an enchanting soundtrack to my journey.
The staff's passion and knowledge were evident as they eagerly shared fascinating tidbits about the plants and their history. Their warmth and enthusiasm added an extra layer of enjoyment to the experience, making it all the more memorable.
"The Enchanted Garden" is not just a feast for the eyes; it is also a haven for relaxation and reflection. I found myself completely immersed in the tranquility of the surroundings, momentarily escaping the hustle and bustle of everyday life. It provided the perfect opportunity to reconnect with nature and find inner peace.
In conclusion, "The Enchanted Garden" is an absolute must-visit for anyone seeking a truly magical experience. With its exquisite beauty, meticulous attention to detail, and serene ambiance, it offers a delightful escape that will leave you captivated and rejuvenated

The waterfall itself is quite impressive, with water cascading down from a height and creating a soothing sound. The sight of the water falling and the mist it creates is absolutely stunning. It's a perfect spot for nature lovers and photographers.
The area around the waterfall is well-maintained and clean. There are seating areas where visitors can relax and enjoy the view. There are also small food stalls selling snacks and refreshments, which is convenient for those who want to spend more time there.
Overall, my experience at Patalpani Waterfall was fantastic. The natural beauty, peaceful atmosphere, and the refreshing waterfall made it a perfect getaway from the city. I highly recommend visiting this place if you're in Indore.

Nice Natural waterfall in the periphery of Indore. Best part is good concrete road which is accessible for both two and four wheelers. There are too rush on weekends. Visit during monsoon.

From my experience the best time to visit the Patalpani in monsoon. There is a beautiful trek of about 1.5km and beautiful view of train station, it’s just 25km away from Indore so as per my suggestion you should go via bike,scooter that you can easily get through rent charges 600 per day. The water is looks clean and lots of food stalls available here so you don’t need to bring food with you.
Must visit!
Tip: DO NOT VISIT DURING SUMMERS

Beautiful waterfall and greenery all around. It's a heritage site. Also, you can see the beautiful railway track and tunnels. Place to visit with bunch of people and can easily spend 3-4 hours of good time. Apart from this, a important fact that you won't find water there in non-rainy seasons so better to hit the place accordingly. Horse riding is also available.

It was an amazing weekend spent at this place. The Patalpani Waterfall is a waterfall on the Choral River, a tributary of the Narmada, located in the Mhow Tehsil of Indore district in the state of Madhya Pradesh, India. Patalpani is a waterfall in Madhya Pradesh. It has an approximate 91 metres (300 ft). It is on the Choral River.
The water flow is highest immediately after the rainy season (usually after July). It goes almost dry in the summer season, and the stream is reduced to a trickle. The area around Patalpani is a popular picnic and trekking spot.

The waterfall's beauty is breathtaking, and the sound of the cascading water is soothing to the ears.
The trek to the waterfall is an experience in itself, with lush greenery and rocky terrain to navigate. The water is crystal clear, and swimming in the natural pool beneath the waterfall is refreshing.
The surroundings are tranquil, making it an ideal spot for a picnic or a day trip with family and friends.
Overall, Patal Pani is a wonderful place to escape from the hustle and bustle of the city and connect with nature.

The Shree Kaal Bhairav Mandir in Ujjain is a Hindu temple dedicated to the city's guardian deity. One unique feature is the offering of liquor to the god, as it is believed that this will help fade away life's issues. Visitors can pray and then drink or give the liquor as a gift.
Amazing place to go. Unique temple . So much happiness .. you got to get liquor for the god and pray. Post which you get to drink it or can give it to someone there . Since Kala Bhairava likes Liquor , we got to get one for him. It denotes that liquor will help us to fade away the issues we have in life.

U can wall up to 1 km. But I am visiting in August so road is to much mudy. Millions of people visit but no development or service to people. Gov not interested to devlop it.
If u want offering Alcohol as a Prasad to kalbhairav God it's fix time after 9pm. English and desi both alcohol available in Temple region.

I am from Chennai and used to temples of different kind and different practices. But I loved this place. This temple has very intense vibes and even amidst crowd I felt calm inside and out. In google it says 24 hours open but not so, they close at 10 pm. 9 pm is aarti time. It is crowded all through the year I heard. Shree Kaal Bhairav here is the protecting deity for Ujjain and Mahakaleshwar. Alcohol is one of the offerings here. It is sold outside the temple. There are many shops around the temple. Plenty of car parking. Few hours of waiting in the queue and chanting His name while standing in the line is not an issue for you, you will love the place and be charged up for sure.

Shree Kaal Bhairav Mandir is one of the famous temples of Ujjain which remain crowded most of the time! Large number of devotees can be seen but crowd management is poor and it is free for all. If wish, worship Kaal Bahrain with a bottle of liquor which can be bought from the market leading to temple!

Very intense and powerful temple.
There is a unique thing about this temple which is, devotees offer liquor to the idol. This felt very interesting and surprising.
There was very very long queue and so many people who have come to visit the temple. But line moved decently quick. Darshan took 1hr 30min.

The Kaal Bhairav Temple is a sacred Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Bhairava, a fierce manifestation of Lord Shiva. It is located in the city of Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh, India. The temple is renowned for its association with the deity Kaal Bhairav, who is worshipped as the guardian of time.
Devotees believe that offering prayers at the Kaal Bhairav Temple can help mitigate the effects of unfavorable planetary influences and bring blessings for prosperity and protection. The temple is especially crowded on Sundays and during the festival of Kaal Bhairav Ashtami, which falls on the eighth day of the Krishna Paksha (waning phase of the moon) in the Hindu month of Margashirsha (November-December).
One notable feature of the temple is the practice of offering alcohol to Lord Bhairava as a part of worship, which is unique among Hindu temples. The belief is that offering liquor symbolizes the offering of one's ego and desires to the deity, seeking his protection and guidance.
Overall, the Kaal Bhairav Temple in Ujjain is a significant pilgrimage site for devotees of Lord Bhairava and those seeking blessings for protection and prosperity.

One of the most sacred and worshipped temple in Ujjain after Mahakal Mandir. First people seek blessings from Mahakal Mandir and then visit here. Near to these temple it also has Bhairav Ghat where you can have Holy Bath and Boat Riding, you can also see some of the most scenic sunset here it depends on climatic conditions. Management is perfect here for visiting people whether it is crowded or not. Soul and Heart becomes more Divine & Peaceful after worshipping to God here such a holy place it is. When I visited these holy place some people told me earlier to take alcohol as a offering to God and what I see is their are wine shops from which people are purchasing as per belief, but reality was different management staff restricted people from offering alcohol to God "Shree Kaal Bhairavji" don't know the exact reason but still people were offering alcohol at the backside of temple which was terrible as it made floor slippery, surrounding dirty, muddy and stinky. No problem for food near by, you can have fast food or snacks like pani puri, corn chaat etc, & must try here is khicha or papad which is fried and served with mirch masala. For children's their is also a enjoyable camel ride here when these holy place is much crowded. E-Rickshaw & Auto are the most convenient means of transport here. Main Road linked to these place is Ring Road.

Shri Kaal Bhairav Mandir is believed to be built by king Bhadrasen dated back in 9th century. The present day temple was made by Maratha King Mahadaji Shinde after fulfilment of his desire to re establish the Maratha Kingdom after defeat in third battle of Panipat. He had offered his turban to Lord Kaal Bhairav and established this temple once reestablishes the Maratha rule. The temple has reflection of Maratha period. The deepmala are placed in the temple. Liquor is also offered to the lord.
Shri Kaal Bhairav is Senapati of Mahaakaal and worshipped in that context. One must visit the temple if in Ujjain.

Jai Kala Bhairav! Jai Mahakal! Kala bhairav is referred to as ujjain’s guard. He is the protector of Ujjain. The temple is amazing. You feel energetic once you enter it. Whiskey is offered to the lord kala bhairav. You can buy from the Prasad shop. It’s outside the premises. But during saawan month it is not offered.

Very spiritual place. There were a lot of crowd when I visited during the week days. I started to stand in queue around 12:30 and we ended around 2:30. It's a tradition to offer liquor to Kala Bhairava. Nowadays it's not allowed, but some devotees do offer it. The devotees hand over the liquor bottles to the priest, who pours the liquor in a saucer. He then offers prayers and takes the saucer near the deity's lips, which have a slit. He tilts the plate a bit, and the liquor starts disappearing.

himanshu saini — Google review
This temple has more crowd than the Mahakal temple. The reason might be lack of management. It takes more than 2 hours to stand in the line & visit the main deity. The road that leads to the temple is also dirty. And one thing you must keep in mind that, here liquor is offered to God as Prasad. So if you can consume the Prasad then only offer it to God or else don't offer. This place needs more managing same like the Mahakaleshwar temple.

Best place to visit big area for roaming and chilling with friends it is second best place to visit in Ujjain if you come to Ujjain and don't come here it is of no use very long queue is there morning and afternoon is very peak hours for here nearly there are many wine shops and many more other shops there is a deep history about it.
The present-day temple structure was built over the remains of an older temple. The original temple is believed to have been built by an obscure king named Bhadrasen. It has been mentioned in the Avanti Khanda of the Skanda Purana.Images of Shiva, Parvati, Vishnu and Ganesha belonging to the Paramara period (9th-13th century CE) have been recovered from the place.The temple walls were once decorated with Malwa paintings. However, only traces of these paintings are visible now.
The present-day temple structure shows Maratha influence. According to the local tradition, after the Maratha defeat in the Third Battle of Panipat (1761 CE), the Maratha general Mahadaji Shinde offered his pagri (turban) to the deity, praying for victory in his campaign to restore the Maratha rule in North India. After successfully resurrecting Maratha power, he carried out restoration of the temple.
A replica of the temple has been established on the Bhuj-Mundra road in Gujarat.

This temple is very famous for the visitors coming to Ujjain. But there is no management in this temple, there is neither provision of drinking water nor any kind of shade from the temple side. Devotees are forced to stand under the open sky. The management here should provide basic facilities to the visiting devotees so that they can plan to come again. Any devotee who comes here comes with the trust of God. There should be separate arrangements for darshan for the elderly and the disabled. I hope this comment of mine reaches the temple management and necessary action is taken.

When you go to Ujjain, visiting Kaal Bhairav Mandir is must. Here Lord Kaal Bhairav is offered alcohol as Prasad.
There is always huge crowd here. Despite the crowd there is no crowd management, no maintenance, dirt and filth everywhere. Even there is no place for keeping shoes.
Verdict: A must visit place, but better to be early in the day.

The Kal Bhairav temple is a temple located in the Ujjain city of Madhya Pradesh, India.
It is dedicated to Kal Bhairav, the guardian deity of the city.
It is said that without his permission no one can enter 'mahakal lok'.
[1] Located on the banks of the Shipra River, it is one of the most active temples in the city, visited by hundreds of devotees daily.
[2] Liquor is one of the offerings made to the temple deity.
You can see a wine shop near temple which is crowded by devotees.
When we went temple there were people's in 400-500+ and we waited 2-3 hrs for our darshan. But after darshan we all were lost in the wonders of kaal bhairav when we saw temple members were offering liquor to kaal bhairava 🔱 .
Amazed to see this first time.

At a distance of 6 km from Ujjain Junction, Sandipani Ashram is a holy shrine located in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh. Situated on the banks of the Kshipra River, it is one of the popular places to visit in Ujjain.
Sandipani Ashram is a holy shrine which is built in remembrance of the Maharishi Sandipani and is considered one of the famous tourist spots in Ujjain. According to mythology, it is believed that this is the ashram where Guru Sandipani used to teach Shri Krishna, his friend Sudama and Lord Krishna's brother Balram. Ashram now looks more like a temple and three idols of Krishna, Balram and Sudama are present along with that of Guru Sandipani. There is also a stone where numerals 1 to 100 found engraved and is believed to be done by guru Sandipani himself.
The ashram complex is huge and with vast stretches of land. There are a lot of shrines but obviously, the main shrine belongs to Guru Sandipani. One of the temples situated here, called Sarveshwar Mahadev, houses a 6000-year Shivlinga with Shesnaag is in its natural form, and is believed to be worshipped by Guru Sandipani and his disciples. Ashram also has a huge stepped tank called Gomati Kund, in which Lord Krishna summoned all the holy water from the holy centers so that Guru Sandipani finds it easier to get the holy water. The water of this pond is believed to be sacred and so, devotees fill their water bottles here and take the water home.

In this Aashram there is temple of bhagwan Krishana and his brother Balrama and shiv Parivar. There is a pond, when I visited that pond is empty. There ia lot of greenery and lots of langur bandar. There ia two shivlings and in one of them there is one standing nandi. And one room where is painting type something. As per them bhagwan Krishana, balram and sudama came here for education and 64 kala. Rishi sandipani son died and Krishana bhagwan made him live in gurudakshina to rishi sandipani.

Sandipani Ashram is a revered Hindu ashram located in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh, India. It holds great significance in Hindu mythology as it is believed to be the place where Lord Krishna and Sudama received their education from Guru Sandipani.
Visitors to Sandipani Ashram can explore the serene surroundings, visit the temple dedicated to Guru Sandipani, and experience the spiritual ambiance of this historic place. It continues to be a center for learning, spirituality, and cultural activities in Ujjain, attracting pilgrims and tourists alike.
If you plan to visit Sandipani Ashram, it's advisable to check the current visiting hours and any specific guidelines or rituals that may be in place during your visit.

If your want Puja for Mangal Dosh, it's done here only on Tuesday. On the first floor, the puja and havan is done and offering is done on Second floor. You can simply visit the temple and pay your visit. But for puja, one needs to have a receipt made. Don't search for Mangalnath Mandir on Google. It will direct to you to some different place if you are looking for Mangal Dosh puja.

I visited this mandir on 23rd of june. At that time there is renovation work is going on. I visited this place while i was going to mahakaleshwar jyotirlinga. As per pundit this is the centre of India and this is the birth place of Mangal dev who is also known as mangla garah or mars planet. Mangal dosh can be removed by worshipping here. From main gat to front of the mandir is clean, but when you came from other side to front there is rocks and palette which can poke or hurt your foot. In mandir ther is 4 or 5 place of worship or say pundits are sitting, in which shiva linga, Mangal bhagwan, Hanuman bhagwan etc. Can be worshipped and on all places there is pandit who is mantra chanting while you go there. Outside it there is shops of parshad and flowers and other things. They have settings with auto drivers and auto drivers took you to them as they got there commissions for it. And they are selling things in basket set and they are not giving you one or 2 thing by saying no in this mandir all these things required. Aside of it there is river.

It's a very good place to get blessings and make sure to visit nearby places like.. Sandipani Ashram and vishnu sagar.
Temple management and Ujjain development authority should focus on cleaning the water which is getting bad day by day as cleaning process is not to be seen but people are dumping pooja leftovers there..

Initially I don't believe in traditional rituals, but later in life I realize the importance of such things. I got to know about this website during a google-search. It is a very informative website. Later, we contacted Pandit Vijay Bharti Ji, to discuss about the Kundli matching and Mangal Dosh Shanti Pujan. He also performed the Puja for us, and now we realize the effects of such pooja. Our life seems more shorted after that puja. Thus, to all non-believers, I would like to suggest that try our traditional rituals once from the right person, and see the difference by yourself.
Nidhi Kulshresth — Google review
Recently got a chance to meet Pandit Vijay Bharti Ji. Obviously, the reason is Mangal Dosh. Moreover, under the guidance of Pandit Ji, I performed the Bhat Puja, and now I am experiencing the changes.
Disclaimer: I was a non-believer. However, after going through many challenges, and their traditional remedies, now I started believing.

Kanch Mandir is a Jain temple located in Indore, adorned with glass mosaics and chandeliers. Constructed in 1903 by Seth Hukumchand Jain, the temple hosts various religious functions. Despite its modest size, the building's colorful glass pieces create an extraordinary and beautiful appearance. Photography inside the temple is prohibited; however, visitors can admire the impressive idol of Lord Mahavir and multiple reflections on glass that provide a stunning visual experience.
It's nice and one of the visitable tourist place in the Indore area.
People here getting blessed by lord Mahaveer.
Glass artwork is good here.
Harin Joshi — Google review
Built in 1903 by a businessman , this temple is quite literally covered with colored glass and mirrors - on walls , floor and ceiling. A curio worth a visit. It is part of a large , lovely heritage mansion ,( suffering from lack of whitewash /paint ) on a crowded street . Photography inside this temple is expressly prohibited, but some visitors can be seen disregarding this rule.

Situated in very crowded area which cloth Market. It was a personal temple which has been built by Seth hukum chand . It is completely made by use of glass piece only. Parking issue is there. So suggest to park the vehicle near by govt parking space only and come by walk or tuktuk(small battery operated auto).
Must visit place . Well maintained. It is having 2 floor where only ground floor is accessible for general people
HITESH SHARMA — Google review
Kanch Mandir(Temple of Mirrors)is one of the important tourist attractions in Indore city. The whole temple's interior is intricately jeweled with all types of glass. One may find it hard to find the plaster or brickwork cause every inch of the interior is ornamented with glass. Since it is a Jain temple, it is open to tourists(other religions) after 10:30 am. There are uncountable murals on the walls depicting stories and mythology of deities. The staff here come forward to help tourists know the history and the meaning of murals. On the first floor, there's a meditation space and three idols of Mahaveer when if seen from sideways will appear 24 times in the mirror placed on both sides of the closed encampment.

This temple is a marvel and I don't know why it is not popular, it's a gem and even the floor here is made of glass which came all over from Belgium and this temple is like 200 years old, and still in a superb condition, and entry is free, I think they should charge atleast 10 rs, so that it can go for maintenance, but a must visit if you are in Indore.

Beautiful Jain Mandir in Indore, built in 1903 by Seth Hukumchanda Jain a lot of Jain religious functions are held here. Building did not look massive but pasted colorful glass pieces gave it extraordinary beautiful look. Photography was not allowed inside hence we took photo in front of the Mandir. Idol of Lord Mahavir was impressive & multiple reflections on glass looked amazing. Ambience inside the temple was really peaceful. A good place to visit while in Indore.

As the name suggests, Kanch Mandir is a Jain temple made entirely out of glass and mirrors. It is unlike any other tourist attraction you will find in Indore. An actual place of worship for the Jains, the Kanch Mandir is hailed for its exquisitely designed walls, ceilings, floors, pillars, and doors - all of which are made of glass.
The Chinese glass lamps and cut glass chandeliers are simply alluring. Don't forget to check out the idol of Lord Mahavira made of black onyx and decorated with multicolored glass beads. With 50 glass murals depicting the various stories of Jainism, this temple is an absolute must-visit, just for its sheer beauty.

The place is actually the Jain temple. Small place and even the flooring is made up of glasses. Online the timing is shown 10 am -05pm but they don't open until 11am. It is recommended to visit the place after 11:30 am only. A good place to visit once. There is no ticket but photography is not allowed inside.

Completely made with glass from floor to ceiling, walls, Jain mandir, it takes around half an hour or 45 min to see this place but you can walk around the old busy streets
Anil Cherukuri — Google review
Sparkling Brilliance: The very essence of the temple lies in its extensive use of colored glass. The walls, ceilings, and pillars shimmer with mosaics, depicting religious scenes, floral patterns, and geometric designs. Light dancing off the glass creates a kaleidoscopic effect, leaving visitors awestruck by its sheer beauty.
Beyond the Bling: While the glass might be the first to grab attention, the temple's architectural details are equally impressive. Exquisite marble carvings, intricate stonework, and delicately painted ceilings blend seamlessly with the glass, showcasing masterful craftsmanship.
Serene Sanctuary: Despite its opulence, Kanch Mandir exudes a sense of calmness. The soft glow of the glass, the chanting of hymns, and the gentle murmur of fountains create a peaceful atmosphere perfect for introspection and prayer.
Spiritual Gems: Dedicated to Jainism, the temple houses several holy statues, including a magnificent black onyx idol of Lord Mahavira, the 24th Tirthankara. Smaller shrines dedicated to other Jain figures offer additional spaces for reverence.

Though this place is well maintained and preserved the glass work all accross floor to ceiling..But there is virtually no space to sit and remove shoes, socks as they insist ।।
Very practical trouble to ladies, elderly and children..to put off their foot wear and again wear them.. without proper sitting or support..
Hope manager, trustee..pays attention to this fact..

Marvellous Jain temple. People who write negative reviews might not have understood in first place that it's a religious place and not a tourist place. We had nice experience and no bad behaviour from staff side. It's a wonderful place.
Excellent serene place to visit, very well maintained neat and clean campus. Easy darshan facility but on Wednesdays and weekends , this becomes a little difficult. may please be taken care by the trust.

A simple jain temple, not a tourist place. Websites shouldn't suggest this temple as a tourist attraction. I had one complaint, Jain temples are a open minded and peaceful space, restricting photography does not make sense. This isn't a hindu temple, such rules shouldn't apply to a Jain temple.

Sarafa Bazaar is a popular marketplace and a night food court located in central Indore, India. During the day, it serves as a jewelry market and transforms into a bustling street food hub after dark. It is renowned for its delectable snacks, which include chaat, tikkas, kebabs, dosas, and more.
The Rajwada Palace is a seven story building from the Holker dynasty with influences from Muslim, French and Maratha architecture. It is located in the heart of Indore and is a popular tourist destination for couples who want to experience the beauty of old India. The palace is decorated with statuettes and temple music, making it a picturesque place to visit.
I visited this place in Dec'21, and most of the palace including the front facing 7-story building is under renovation. Only one part of the palace which has museum and a temple is open for tourists. You would love to see what in there for us. A must visit place to know more about Holkar dynasty.

It's hardly 3 km away from indore railway station, As on now (dated 16/10/2022) construction work is going so main gate is closed, so you have to enter from the second gate. There is no entry fee for Rajwada Palace unless you don't go to the first floor where many historical war things are placed( entry fee only 10rs for this) , if you are interested in history then must visit for it.
Also good place for photography if you want to post in social media😉.

If you talk about Indore city…
One of its most iconic landmarks is the Rajwada Palace, a magnificent structure that stands as a testament to the city’s royal past.
The Rajwada Palace, also known as Holkar Palace, was built by the Holkar dynasty rulers in the 18th century.
The exterior of the palace is adorned with intricately carved wooden balconies, lattice work, and ornate arches. The seven-story structure stands tall, with each level representing a different architectural style. The lower floors are made of stone, while the upper floors are built with wood.
The palace also houses a museum that showcases artifacts, paintings, and sculptures from the Holkar era. Visitors can explore the royal costumes, weapons, and vintage photographs that provide insights into the lives of the erstwhile rulers.
Most important-
The Rajwada Palace is not just a historical monument; it is a living heritage. It hosts cultural events, music concerts, and exhibitions, keeping the legacy alive.
The surrounding gardens and courtyards offer a peaceful retreat, where visitors can relax and soak in the regal ambiance.

Shri Swaminarayan Mandir is located on the Khandwa road and it is on left side of the main road when you are travelling from Indore to Omkareshwar. No need to plan separately, you can take halt here when you are planning your visit to Omkareshwar. This temple construction was just completed in 14 months at expense of 20 Crore which is constructed in one acre area.
The Main temple contains three main shrines. Ideal of Shri Laxmi Narayan Dev is in center. Idols of Rada Krishna accompanied with Swaminarayan in the form of Shri Hari Krishna Maharaj installed on the Right and on the left of the central idol, Shri Vasudeva, Shri Dharma pita and Bhakti Mata are installed.

Beautiful place....But the security staff is highly unprofessional and illiterate. Intolerable rude behavior.

The falls do not allow you to travel to the bottom anymore so lost a lot of charm. You only get to see it from far and are surrounded by street vendors. There is not many covered spaces to hide from the sun. Hardly an adventure spot and definitely not an interesting tourist spot as it only has one thing to see.
