The Beauty in the Mountains.


One evening as we were celebrating Kavyas birthday, we realized it was almost a year since we had our Goa trip. By the end of that day our next destination was decided, and flight tickets were booked, Yeah, I know we work fast. This was one of my favorite trips as it was a hill station. 75 miles away from Pune, a well know city in India, was our destination Mahabaleshwar. This place is a treat for your eyes and soothes the mind.

We took flight from Bangalore to Pune and a Car to drive to and around Mahabaleshwar. It was a 3-day trip, which was more than enough to cover all our planned locations. This was a laid-back easy-going vacation. We weren't under any pressure to cover a lot of places.

During our stay we visited Pratapgad Fort, Lingmala Waterfall, Arthur’s Seat, Panch Ganga Temple, Elephant's Head point, Sunset points. Travelling from one place to another did take some time since Mahabaleshwar is in India's Western Ghats mountain range, with mostly windy roads
The last day on our way back to Pune we visited Mapro Gardens, which is known for their strawberry produce. And with strawberries we bid goodbye to Mahabaleshwar.
