We were welcomed by rain drops when we entered the Pachmarhi town...believe me it was awesome with some fog too....We checked in our hotel, got freshed, had breakfast and all set to explore the lovely paradise. Hotel provided us the Gipsy along with the driver-cum-guide. The town is not very large, and most of its area is under the administration of the Pachmarhi Cantonment Board, serving the Indian Army. The population of Pachmarhi is about 10,000 persons, most of whom are connected with the Army installations in the area. So to explore around the driver has to make a register entry and to report at Army camp first.
After completing the formalities driver took us to famous Bee Fall...It was beautiful, seen it in many Bollywood movies...Why it's called Bee fall!!!...because when water falls from the height it makes sound like bees do...interesting na :) was unable to click fall's picture though we were above it...but there was one more fall which looks like a fountain.
Our next destination was Jatashankar. A very old lord Shiva's temple.One have to track a lot to reach the final cave.
We did it and that too when it was raining(We borrowed two umbrellas at the entrance of the temple). We passed through a strip valley and stepped down various stair-ways very
While returning from the cave we bought some miniature variety of mango called Amlaki...Tastes really good!!!
After a lunch break we headed to the most amazing place "Dhupghar"...The highest peak of Satpuras..4429 feet above from the sea level..It was the awesome place to visit...Hills, fog and chilling wind... it was so romantic(I was missing my husband). I can't describe its beauty in words...pictures are enough to tell the story....
Next day we went to see Pandav caves the five Pandav brothers of Mahabharata, along with their wife 'Draupadi', spent a part of their exile here. Five ancient caverns carved out on a sandstone rock, in a low hillock, forms these famous caves of Pachmarhi. Currently, they stand as protected monuments of the hill station.
