Maharashtra Tourism

Nestled close to the Arabian Sea, the state of Maharashtra located on the western side of India, is known for its tranquility and exceptional beauty. This picturesque land is studded with natural marvels like beaches, hill stations, man-made architectural structures, peaceful temples, churches and rock cut caves. From devout pilgrims to travellers looking out for some sun and sand, Maharashtra offers this and much more. Pawna Lake Camping is amazing location to spend in nature. 


Mumbai, the metropolitan city of India, is located in the heart of Maharashtra. Known as a multi-cultural and multi-lingual city, it is home to the world's biggest film and television industry. While cities like Pune and Mumbai showcase people living in the fast lane, there are large areas which have escaped industrialization and still enjoy a quiet and serene lifestyle. Some of the spiritual cities include Shirdi, the abode of Sai Baba and Nashik which organizes the Maha Kumbh Mela.

Maharashtra is also famous for its zesty cuisine in every restaurant in every city. While it consists of a simple platter, the ingredients are filled with aromatic spices. From Solkadhi, bangda, pomfret curry, modak, rice and chapattis these dishes will leave you thirsting for more.

Other cultural sites which are a must see include World Heritage Site inductees such as Ajanta Caves, Ellora Caves and Elephanta Caves. Besides these majestic locations, there are many hill stations or towns spread across the state. These places offer a clean, calm and are a thoroughly refreshing alternative to crowded cities. Trekking enthusiasts can discover nature in popular hill stations like Matheran, Mahableshwar, Khandala and Lonavala. While these hill stations are set deep within Maharashtra, they are conveniently linked by road, air and sea and can be accessed anytime.

So come and be part of a charming city where opportunities include exploring more than 360 forts and rock caves to being reminded of Maharashtra's rich cultural and artistic past. From seeking grace from holy temples to being a part of an exciting wildlife thrill, your experience will definitely be exceptional and priceless.
