It is accepted that India is a land of diversity owing to its numerous cultures, religions, tradition and heritage. Each state has unique places, people and traditions, even in Madhya Pradesh.

Let us look at the exclusive specialties that make Madhya Pradesh unique:

  1. Khajuraho Temples- Declared as UNESCO World Heritage Site, this group of temples will leave you spellbound at first sight. The architecture, design and the sculptures are something to marvel at. The temples are known for its erotic and aesthetic carvings based on the idea- ‘Celebration of love between two souls’. Besides gazing at the sculptures, you can also head for the light and sound show in the evening to know the history of the temple.
  • Bheda Ghat- On visiting this place, the first thing that you will exclaim is ‘What an awesome place!’ Surrounded by crystal clear marble rocks all around, this place abounds in peace, tranquility and serenity. To go around Bheda Ghat, you must avail the boat ride where the boatman will share information about this place in the most engaging manner. If you are in search of souvenirs to keep as a token of your tourism in Madhya Pradesh, you can get it from the local stores that sell various items made of marble. Another attraction of this place is the Dhuandhar Falls. The waterfall does not have such a great height but the speed at which river Narmada flows down, creates an astonishing view for the visitors.
  • Satpura National Park- Madhya Pradesh is also known for its wildlife conservation efforts and this is clear from its 6 national parks and their wildlife reserves. Satpura National Park has a remarkable tiger reserve where you can see numerous tigers involved in some or the other activity. The main specialty of this park is that it is a three-in-one combination; in other words, the park has mountains, forests and backwaters. The fauna of this park is diverse-you can sight sloth bear, Indian bison, Spotted deer, leopard and many more. Also there is no dearth of migratory birds like Kingfisher, hornbill and others.
  • Pench Tiger Reserve- Also another national park, it is mainly known for its population of tigers. Spotting a tiger is really easy here and apart from that, you can also sight wild dogs, vulture, jackal, leopard. The most interesting aspect is that the national park is the origin of Mowgli of ‘The Jungle Book’ by Rudyard Kipling. And so you will see a sign board saying ‘ Welcome to the Mowgli’s Land’.

Whatever be your interest, Madhya Pradesh will never leave you disappointed and all the credits go to the numerous towns and cities that together make up the beautiful Madhya Pradesh!

One state that deserves special mention, especially if you want a good trip in MP within a short span of time (for three days or so), is definitely Pachmarhi. But the question is, since there are so many things to see, feel, enjoy and taste in Pachmarhi, how will you do it all within three days? First of all, you need to avail the Pachmarhi tour package from your trusted travel agency and then just follow the trip itineraries. So the Pachmarhi tour package sort out your three days trip?

  1. Day 1– Since there are numerous places to visit in Pachmarhi and you have just 3 days to spare, visiting only the special tourist attractions would be a wise decision. On the first day, visit the Pandava Caves, Bee Falls and lastly Dhoopgarh. One of the best places in Pachmarhi that will leave you bespectacled is the Pandava caves, a group of Buddhist temples carved in rocks belonging to the 9th century. Although there are many waterfalls in Pachmarhi, you will simply marvel at the beauty of Bee Falls with its cascade of glistening water coursing through the valleys. The last stop would be Dhoopgarh, the highest point of Pachmarhi at 1352 meter. You can very well imagine how picturesque it would be to view the sunrise and sunset from this point and this is the specialty of this place, undoubtedly!
  • Day 2– The previous day trip must have left you pretty exhausted! Hence how about a visit to another spectacular cave and a magnificent hilltop temple? that’s right! You will be taken to the Jata Shankar Cave and Chauragarh Temple on the second day. Like the Pandava caves, Jata Shankar Cave is also no less a beauty. Composed of mainly limestone, this cave again has a mythological tale to say: it is believed Lord Shiva hid himself from the wrath of Bhashmasur. This cave has naturally carved structures that look like Lord Shiva himself and hence the name. The Chauragarh Temple is located atop a hill at a height of 1326 meter; you can have a spectacular view of the surrounding hills and valleys. The temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva; most importantly you need to have great strength in your leg muscles for you need to climb nearly 1300 steps to reach here!
  • Day 3– The last day of your trip should be ended in a grand way. Hence, you will be visiting the Satpura National Park and the Duchess Fall. Begin with the Fall and then end both your day and the trip among the animals! Duchess Falls is yet another scenic waterfall and you can call it the Victoria Falls of Madhya Pradesh, unhesitatingly. At Satpura National Park, you can view various animals like tigers, leopards, bison and others from a close view as well as watch various migratory birds chirping here and there.

Conclusion- Thus your three day trip to Pachmarhi is sorted. With a visit to so many places within three days, you will surely have one of the best Madhya Pradesh tourism experiences. Remember! Book your tour package in advance so that you can enjoy the short trip in an organized way instead of hurrying at the last moment.

Among the various tourist places in Madhya Pradesh, Orccha stands out for many reasons. The once upon a time historical capital of the Bundela Rajput Kings, the city has a story to say in every nook and cranny. The main medium through which the history of the city is spoken out to its tourists is its ancient monuments and forts; one can delve into India’s rich past of glorious times by simply visiting these places.
 
Besides, Orchha is a city that is resplendent with hills and lush greenery, where you can capture Nature in her full mirth and exuberance. So before you plan a trip to this historic wonderland, here are some of the popular must-visit tourist spots in Orchha:
 

  • Jhansi Fort- You must have heard the popular tale of the fierce ‘Jhansi ki Rani’ in Indian history. This fort is now a remnant of the times when the erstwhile heroine fought some of the most dangerous battles. It was built nearly four centuries ago and occupies an area about 49 acres. The fort stands proudly as an example of intelligent architecture and is regarded as one of the best protected areas in India. There is also a museum inside this fort that has some spectacular sculptures giving an informative insight about Bundelkhand’s history.
     
  • Chaturbhuj temple- Let us shift to the spiritual aspect of Orchha in the olden times. Built in the 17th century by the Bundela Rajput kings, this temple is a brilliant piece of architecture that is no less than a fort! The temple is of an impressive height with the topmost floor giving you a fabulous view of the entire city of Orchha.
  • Orchha fort- When you will first see this fort, you may initially think it to be a replica of the Edinburgh Castle in UK! But that is not true; it is yet another popular fort in Orchha that is breathtakingly beautiful. Situated on the Betwa River, this magnificent structure has many temples and palaces inside it. The main component parts of this fort are the Raj Mahal, Jahangir Mahal and Rai Parveen Mahal. Each of these Mahals has its own specialty- If asked which one is the most historic monument in the history of forts in Orccha, Raj Mahal is the clear winner! Rai Parveen Mahal is the palace that was dedicated to a woman named Rai Parveen; King Indramani was so allured to her charm and beauty that he built this palace in her name, almost like the story behind Taj Mahal (Shah Jahan built it for Mumtaz). Jahangir Mahal is especially noted for its balconies and the enticing view of Orchha from them.
  • Orchha wildlife sanctuary- Like any other sanctuary, Orchha wildlife sanctuary is also a reserve, sheltering various species of animals and birds. Besides, this sanctuary is also one of the most popular tourist spots in Orchha. Built in 1994, animals like sloth bear, langur, tiger, blue bull and others find peaceful shelter here. This place is also home to more than 200 species of birds, including migratory birds like black swan, kingfisher, quail and many more. Apart from being blessed with abundant flora and fauna, the beauty of Orchha wildlife sanctuary lies in the flowing waters of River Betwa, that completes the beauty of this place.We recommend an evening visit here as the scenic beauty of the sunn setting down behind the Chattris ( cenotaphs ) is a photographer’s delight.
  • Chattris- Chattris are actually cenotaphs or opulent tombs of the earlier Indian kings. The chattris don’t look like any ordinary tombs so at your first glance, you might mistake it as any other royal Orchha fort! These royal structures are many in number and are built on the banks of Betwa. You can get the best view of the Chattris and gaze at their beauty, if you stand on the bridge that is on the opposite side of the river.
     
    Conclusion- Connect with i4u Travel Services,the Madhya Pradesh Tourism specialist for your holiday requirements for Orchha.

From these wondrous places of religion, to places where you can unwind and be pleasantly taken aback by the works left behind by our ancestors, to numerous parks that have been an abode for endangered species of animals, there is no dearth of touristy places in MP to visit.
However, apart from simply admiring the various sites that tour guides assign to the itinerary, the beauty of Madhya Pradesh can also be enjoyed actively by participating in the various sports and adventure rides that the place has to offer. Yes, jungle safari rides that promise a rendezvous with the national animal of India i.e. the majestic Royal Bengal Tigers is the most popular draw but we would also like to present to you some of the other thrilling activities that you can indulge in during the trip.

 
Trekking
Nature Walks and trekking allow you to experience the plethora of thrills that nature has to offer, first hand. Let your travel itinerary be filled with exciting spots to trek to along with all the safari rides and visits to scenic locations that would probably be done from within an automobile. Pachmarhi, Pench National Parks and trekking through the Satpura ranges offer quite a thrill. Notable tour guides would even insist that you forego the modern comforts and set out to explore the nooks and crannies of Madhya Pradesh on foot. From coming face to face with an exotic bird or crossing a river with the help of a stone bridge, you are guaranteed to quench the adventurous soul yet crave for more.

River Rafting
River Rafting in Orchha on the river Betwa is one of the most thrilling rides that the place has to offer. Tourism packages usually include 90 minutes to 3 hour packages where you can get glimpses of the serene Kanchana Ghat, Shiv Ghat and Note Ghat or can even choose to spend a few moments at each of these river banks if you so please. Enjoying breakfasts and other refreshments are part of these lucrative packages that ensure that the visitors enjoy themselves to the fullest.

Rock Climbing
Another one of the most popular recreational activities that are held outdoors, wearing harnesses and the necessary gear truly instil an adrenaline rush. Pachmarhi offers the ideal place for this activity due to its abundance of hills and mountains and the rocks that create a challenge for even the most experienced. For the faint hearted or the less experienced, artificial rock structures too offer a thrill with its imposing heights and footholds embedded on the surface for a better grip. Make sure you do not miss out on this exiting activity (that would surely test your indomitable spirit) once you visit the state.
