This is a very beautiful place to visit just 40 km from Itarsi, Madhya Pradesh, India. Though I visited in summer time but this dam will be more attractive to visit during rainy season. The nearby Tawa Resort managed by MP TOURISM is only place for staying and for boating in Tawa Reservoir.

Good Place to Visit during Monsoon. Best if you can visit when the Gates of Dam are Open. You Can also sail in The Houseboat and enjoy the Beauty of Reservoir and the islands.

The place is good for family trip .Resort stay is bit costly but food and rooms are very high standards. view from room is amazing specially in sun rise timing .Internet and phone connectivity is big problem . Celebrated Dussehra in nearby village which was also very exciting and thrilling experience.

The Dam is situated near to the the Govt. Ordinance factory having a direct road internally, but is restricted to be used by general public, hence do not follow the 1st road suggestion Maps offer you but take the second road instead. Now, as a location it offers great option for many water sports, being charged accordingly. The reservation for which can be made through reception of Tawa Resort. The dam itself is a nice picnic spot,picturesque nature blooming with dense forest of Teak & being the longest dam of state you are bound to see a big catchment area in sight. Weekends are rush hour due to its accessibility in all seasons, connected by the NH 69, which leads to forest trail of about 10 kms before reaching the spot. You can opt for either dam top or dam view point both being equally good location. The charges for cruise are 130₹ pp for 45 min ,1030₹ for family boat of 25 min & 660₹ for 15 min of speed boat joyride.

Mandikhoh is आ beautiful spot ओफ tawa reservoir for lovers of nature.you can enjoy boating on vast stretches of water n hillocks crowned with lush green look.

If you want to experience Historical vibes must visit this place. You will see the lot of hand made painting by humans. Their caves. And thanks to Madhya Pradesh Government they maintain all things properly. We enjoy afternoon here.

The Bhimbetka Caves, located within the boundaries of the Ratapani Tiger Reserve in Raisen district, southern Madhya Pradesh, about 40 km from Bhopal, are a group of seven hills made of quartzite rocks, part of the Vindhya Hills. They were first discovered by V.S. Wakankar during his train journey from Bhopal to Itarsi in 1957. Bhimbetka is the oldest evidence of paintings and habitation by early humans in the Indian subcontinent. The Bhimbetka paintings date from the Upper Paleolithic period (approximately 40,000 BC - 10,000 BC) to the historical period (first millennium BC), suggesting that the area was inhabited for a long time. Approximately 650 caves in Bhimbetka are painted, but only 15 are open to tourists. Animals are predominant in the Bhimbetka paintings. According to one study, 29 species of animals are depicted, including elephants, rhinoceroses, lions, blackbucks, and wild buffaloes, which are not currently found in the region. Sixteen colors are used in these paintings, with white and red being the most prevalent. Animals are depicted either independently or in hunting scenes. Some paintings may have had ritualistic purposes. Human figures are depicted in geometric patterns. An examination of these paintings reveals the gender division of labor prevalent in that period: men are mostly depicted in hunting scenes, while women are depicted in activities such as food gathering and preparation.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 5/5 Stars – A Mind-Blowing Journey Back in Time! The Rock Shelters of Bhimbetka are honestly one of the coolest places I’ve ever been to — it’s like stepping straight into prehistory! 😍 The vibe here is unreal — surrounded by hills, forests, and ancient rock formations, you can literally feel the history in the air. The prehistoric cave paintings are the real showstopper. Some of them are over 10,000 years old, yet still so vivid and expressive. It’s wild to think that early humans once lived, danced, and hunted right here. The artwork tells stories — from daily life to rituals — and it’s crazy how creative and advanced they were back then. The place is super well-maintained, with clear paths, helpful signs, and peaceful surroundings. It’s quiet, serene, and perfect for anyone who loves nature, history, or just wants a chill escape from the city chaos. If you’re visiting Bhopal or anywhere nearby, Bhimbetka is an absolute must-visit. It’s not just a tourist spot — it’s an experience that connects you to the roots of human civilization. 🌄 ✨ Totally 5/5 stars — breathtaking, historical, and straight-up magical!

The Rock Shelters of Bhimbetka, at the southern edge of the Vindhya Range about 45 kilometers southeast of Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, form one of the most extraordinary windows into prehistoric human life. Spread across seven hills—Vinayaka, Bhonrawali, Bhimbetka, Lakha Juar East and West, Jhondra, and Muni Babaki Pahari—the site contains over 750 natural sandstone shelters stretching nearly 10 kilometers. Surrounded by the dense greenery of the Ratapani Wildlife Sanctuary, the setting is serene yet powerful, with towering rock formations above forested valleys where humanity left its earliest marks. Archaeological evidence suggests Bhimbetka has been inhabited for more than 100,000 years, making it the oldest known human settlement in the Indian subcontinent. It bears traces of all major prehistoric phases—from the Lower Paleolithic to the Mesolithic, Chalcolithic, and early historic periods. The earliest inhabitants were hunter-gatherers who used these natural shelters for protection. Over millennia, they recorded their lives on sandstone walls with vivid mineral pigments, creating one of the world’s richest collections of prehistoric art. The rock paintings of Bhimbetka reveal an unbroken story of human creativity and community. The oldest, dating to around 10,000 BCE, depict large animals—bison, tigers, rhinoceroses, and bears—creatures that once roamed these forests. These bold, energetic images express primal vitality. Later Mesolithic paintings show humans hunting, dancing, and playing instruments, reflecting communal life. With the Chalcolithic period appear motifs of agriculture, domestic life, and geometric patterns, marking the transition from nomadic to settled communities. Later artworks depict warriors, processions, religious symbols, and mythical motifs, signs of organized society and the dawn of history. This artistic continuity makes Bhimbetka a living chronicle of human evolution and belief. Successive layers of paintings reveal changing cultures and environments. In some shelters, such as Bhonrawali and Lakha Juar, new generations painted over older ones, forming a striking visual record of time. The colors, made from hematite, manganese oxides, and plant extracts, have withstood centuries, still glowing on crimson sandstone under soft forest light. The site’s modern discovery is equally fascinating. Long revered by local tribes as a sacred site linked to Bhima of the Mahabharata, its scientific importance was recognized in 1957 by archaeologist V. S. Wakankar, who noticed its resemblance to prehistoric sites in Europe. Excavations uncovered Acheulean tools, microliths, hearths, and artifacts comparable to the world’s earliest human settlements. In 2003, Bhimbetka was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site under criteria (iii) and (v), honoring its testimony to human cultural development and its enduring connection between people and their natural landscape. Nearby Adivasi traditions still echo the themes seen in these ancient paintings, preserving continuity across ages. Visiting Bhimbetka is a humbling experience. The shelters open like chapters of an ancient story, each revealing scenes from forgotten eras frozen in pigment and stone. The silence of the forest deepens one’s sense of kinship with humanity’s earliest ancestors. The murmur of wind across the rocks and the distant calls of birds evoke a time when art was life itself, a sacred expression of being. The Rock Shelters of Bhimbetka stand today not merely as an archaeological site but as a timeless testament to human imagination, endurance, and the universal need to leave one’s story upon the earth.

Bhimbetka is renowned for its ancient rock shelters that preserve some of India’s earliest known cave paintings, dating from the Paleolithic through Mesolithic and later historical eras. Designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the area includes hundreds of painted shelters—over 400 in total— illustrating hunting scenes, dancing figures, and various animals, offering valuable insight into the lifestyle and creativity of prehistoric humans.

Bhimbetka is known for its prehistoric rock shelters with some of the oldest cave paintings in India. It’s an UNESCO World Heritage Site and has a large collection of shelters, with over 400 of them featuring paintings on hunting, dancing, and animals thereby providing a glimpse into the lives of early humans. Situated about 45 kms from Bhopal it is one of the tourist attractions. (Date of visit 18.10.2025)

A nice place to have a glimpse of the early days of human. A very well maintained place with Guide facility. It takes around 1 hour to visit all the caves.

The Bhojeshwar Mahadev Temple is an 11th-century incomplete Hindu temple dedicated to Lord Shiva, located in Bhojpur, near Bhopal in Madhya Pradesh. It is famous for housing one of the largest Shiva Lingams in the world, which stands over 7.5 feet tall and is carved from a single stone. The temple is considered an architectural marvel, notable for its massive construction, intricate carvings, and the remaining architectural plans and ramps used in its construction

The Bhojpur Shivling is closely associated with the unfinished Bhojeshwar Temple, believed to have been commissioned in the 11th century by King Bhoja of the Paramara dynasty. The temple is renowned for its massive monolithic Shiva lingam, standing about 2.3 meters tall, which is regarded as the largest of its kind in India. Although the construction was abruptly discontinued for reasons that remain uncertain, the site today holds the status of a Monument of National Importance and is preserved by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI).

We have such rich history and beautiful places to visit. However there is no conservation attempt. The place needs to to be maintained cleanly. Had a great darshan. Jai shiv shankar

🌟 A beautiful and peaceful temple dedicated to Lord Shiva. The huge Shiva Lingam is breathtaking, and the calm surroundings make it a perfect spot for both spirituality and history lovers. 🙏

Shivalingan is superb or I would say exclusive and the place is also vibrating, but the society and governments have not done their job properly. Bhojeshwar temple of Bhojpur is very important, not only for religion or Hindu people, but also for Indian history and culture.

An unfinished temple with a large shivling. History says it was build in a night. Has a huge shivlinga which is a treat to the eyes. The temple brings positive energy. The view from the top of the hill is fabulous. A must visit place.

Located on a small hillock it offers amazing views of the city. The temple premises are quite clean and peaceful. The temple closes in the afternoon between 12-4 pm. Photography is not allowed inside the temple. There is a nice museum nearby with lot of sculptures and other archaeological finds.

The place is different from what is shown in the picture. The temple is small and beautiful but it covered from three sides by buildings of samaj. A good place as a marriage hall. The idols are attractive and properly maintained and clean.

Situated at the top of Bhopal. Very big and nice place. U can see view of old Bhopal from garden.

A temple of saghu samaj full of peace, Beautiful huge n specious temple, Addhyaksh-Mr. Kailash sahu

Religious place in Bhopal, Sight seeing and City View will excite you to visit again n again. .

Calm and beautiful temple. Awesome is the word for the premises of temple.

Bhagwan Lakshmi Narayan temple.. situated in very narrow street of old city of bhopal

Had a wonderful experience at the Tribal Museum! The entry fee is just ₹20 per person and ₹100 for photography — totally worth it! The place is beautifully maintained, neat, and clean. Loved how every corner tells a story and showcases tribal life so creatively. If you visit on a Saturday or Sunday, don’t miss the amazing food stalls — especially their Jalebi and Dosa, both are a must-try! 😋 A perfect place to explore, learn, and enjoy authentic local vibes.

One of the best museums in Bhopal! This museum offers an enriching experience of tribal life, culture, and art. It beautifully showcases tribal artifacts, lifestyle, and full-scale houses that give a true sense of their architecture and traditions. The entry fee is nominal, and there’s a small extra charge for photography — totally worth it if you enjoy capturing unique cultural spaces. A canteen is available on the lower floor, and a souvenir shop is located right next to the entrance. One of the most fascinating parts of the visit is meeting real tribal artists from different regions who stay here to create and display their crafts. The on-site art gallery features stunning tribal paintings, which are also available for purchase. Parking for cars and bikes is conveniently located opposite the entry. Overall, it’s a must-visit place for anyone interested in culture, art, and photography.

My visit to the Madhya Pradesh Tribal Museum was an enriching and unforgettable experience 🌿✨. The museum beautifully showcases the diverse culture, traditions, and history of the tribal communities of Madhya Pradesh. From vibrant artwork 🎨 to fascinating artifacts 🗿, every display narrates a unique story of heritage and creativity. The atmosphere is both inspiring and educational, offering visitors a deep dive into the roots of Indian culture. Truly a place that connects you with the spirit of Madhya Pradesh — highly recommended for culture lovers, travelers, and explorers 🌸🌍💫.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 5/5 Stars – An Absolute Gem in the Heart of Bhopal! The Madhya Pradesh Tribal Museum is honestly one of the most stunning and underrated places I’ve ever visited. It’s not your typical museum with boring text panels — it’s like walking into a living piece of art. Every corner, wall, and display feels alive with color, culture, and stories of the tribal communities of Madhya Pradesh. The architecture itself is fire 🔥 — super aesthetic, open, and modern but still deeply rooted in traditional design. The exhibits are so immersive — you don’t just see tribal life; you feel it. From handcrafted tools and ornaments to full-sized huts and artistic installations, everything screams authenticity and creativity. The lighting and setup make the whole place feel magical, especially in the evening. Plus, the staff is super friendly, always ready to share cool insights about the tribes and their art forms. And if you’re into photography — oh man, this place is a dream come true 📸 Honestly, the Madhya Pradesh Tribal Museum is not just a museum; it’s an experience. Whether you’re into culture, art, or just want to vibe in a beautiful space, this place deserves all the love and hype. Totally worth the visit! ✨ Highly recommend for anyone visiting Bhopal!

Loved this place! It feels like you have been teleported to a whole new different world. It gives old vibes with mud houses of different tribes. It also has a cafe. And the surrounding is very nice. Also besides the tribal museum there is state museum where you can visit. There is no charges for females. You can see old sculptures, coins, paintings,etc. Also you can have VR experience which needs extra charges as per the duration. Must visit if you are in bhopal.

I must say that Tribal museum in Bhopal is one of the most illustrative and amazing museum showing the tribal culture and life. It shows how tribal community is living in different type of houses, how they draw painting, how they celebrate their functions and how they play games. Museum has large galleries which are beautifully designed to give a real life showcase. One must have minimum 3 to 4 hours to fully explore the museum, there are also cultural shows by tribal community on specific times and date. There is also a good cafeteria there which serves food at very reasonable prices.

Unique, planned & pragmetic approach process can be seen here. Every visitor or Bhopal and nearby area must visit here. Much more awareness is indicated here about tribal community including wonderful combination of art and views.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 A Living Tribute to India's Rich Heritage — An Unforgettable Experience! Indira Gandhi Manav Sangrahalaya (Museum of Mankind) in Bhopal is truly one of the most unique and enriching museums I have ever visited. Spread across a vast, scenic campus on Shyamla Hills, overlooking the beautiful Upper Lake, this museum isn’t just a collection of artifacts — it’s a celebration of India’s incredible tribal, rural, and cultural diversity. What sets this museum apart is its open-air layout. You don’t just see history in glass cases — you walk through it. Life-size tribal huts, traditional dwellings, agricultural setups, and village scenes from different states and communities across India have been recreated with amazing authenticity. Each corner of the museum tells a story — from the art and rituals to the lifestyle and survival methods of our indigenous communities. The indoor galleries are just as impressive, showcasing rare photographs, folk art, musical instruments, ornaments, masks, and even spiritual beliefs of different tribes. Everything is well-labeled and explained in both Hindi and English, making it easy to understand and connect with. It’s not just educational — it’s a peaceful, soul-touching journey through India’s roots. Walking through the lush green paths, hearing the birds, and soaking in the tribal wisdom makes this place feel sacred. The staff is helpful, the premises are clean and well-maintained, and there’s enough space for families to enjoy without crowds. I highly recommend this museum for students, researchers, history enthusiasts, photographers, and anyone who wants to experience the real India beyond textbooks. Take your time when you visit — you’ll leave with a deeper appreciation for India’s cultural richness and the resilience of its people. A true national treasure! 🇮🇳✨

I really enjoyed visiting the Indira Gandhi National Museum of Mankind in Bhopal. It’s a huge place with lots of interesting artifacts that show how different tribes across India live. The best part is the open-air section—full-size tribal houses from all over the country, from the remote Northeast to the deserts of Rajasthan. Walking through these huts and seeing their unique designs feels like a mini trip across India. The museum is calm, spacious, and very well maintained. Nothing feels rushed—you can take your time, look around, and learn a lot without getting bored. It’s a great spot for anyone curious about culture, history, or just looking for a peaceful and unique place to explore in Bhopal. Overall, a really nice and refreshing experience. Totally worth a visit.

Beautiful and very important place for the point of human development and understanding of human development and India's many tribe collections and their culture and households are there. Its surrounding are so beautiful and rich that everyone must visit it with family and kids specially as very important place for knowledge gaining.

Loved the artificats inside museum though few galleries were closed due to renovation..But a must watch , inside it can be humid. Even 2-3 hours are not sufficient.. The outdoor exhibits are worth every penny.. There are multiple sections on evolution, human history and tribal culture..life size dwelling complex models,tribal arts so much to see..loved every bit..must visit

The Indira Gandhi Rashtriya Manav Sangrahalaya (IGRMS) in Bhopal is a captivating anthropological museum, sprawling across 200 acres on Shamla Hills, offering a vivid journey through India’s cultural tapestry. This National Museum of Mankind beautifully showcases human evolution and tribal heritage through its extensive exhibits. The masks collection is a standout, featuring intricate designs from various tribes, reflecting their rituals, beliefs, and artistry. These masks, crafted from materials like wood, feathers, and beads, highlight the socio-cultural significance of tribal traditions, making them a must-see for visitors. The state-wise displays, including those of Manipur and Sikkim, are equally impressive, presenting authentic dwellings, artifacts, and traditional crafts that capture the unique lifestyles and cultural diversity of these regions. The open-air exhibitions, like the Tribal Habitat and Himalayan Village, immerse visitors in vibrant reconstructions of indigenous life. Despite its educational value, the museum could improve amenities like accessibility and signage. With its serene ambiance and rich collections, IGRMS is a treasure for history enthusiasts and families, offering an enlightening experience of India’s cultural heritage.

Van Vihar National Park is often referred to as a “national park,” but in reality, it feels more like a large open zoo. Many of the animals are kept in enclosures, so don’t expect a completely wild safari experience. The park is set along a single straight road about 10–12 km long, which you can explore in different ways — on foot, by bicycle, bike, or car — with separate entry fees depending on your choice. It’s a very photogenic location, with plenty of spots where the greenery, lake views, and wildlife make for beautiful pictures. The best time to visit is early in the morning when the air is fresh and the crowds are minimal. If you plan to walk the whole route, wear sports shoes and comfortable clothing, as it can be a long stretch. On the other hand, if you’d rather not walk, bringing your own vehicle is a good option to cover the distance comfortably. One thing to keep in mind is that the park is not very shaded, so visiting on hot, sunny days can be tiring. Overall, it’s an “okay” place for a peaceful outing, especially for nature lovers and photographers who enjoy a calm environment without too much rush.

Very well maintained, delightful experience for nature lovers. Great sighting of varied wildlife animals. Unbelievable experience as it is right in the heart of the city. Must visit Van Vihar for a day with nature! Note: Tourists can avail the safari options provided by the Forest Department or register the 2 or 4 wheeler they are using for the safari.

Beautiful place! So green and there is river/lake flowing alongside. It feels surreal. Ticket cost is very less but the experience is amazing! They have a very clean and maintained national park. So spacious and we can find many animals there. The view is just breathtaking. Rare trees are also there, beautiful butterflies, tigers, bears, snakes, rabbits, rare birds, turtles and many more I have seen. They also have a beautiful cafe inside van vihar. They have scenic dining settings. Good options in the menu. I enjoyed a coffee there while gazing at the water below, observing beautiful and soothing ripples of flowing water. Well maintained place. Bikes and cars are allowed inside. Horn is not allowed to keep animals and other creatures at peace. Bicycles and e bikes are available for rent there at a very reasonable cost. Great experience overall.

Must visit tourist attraction of Bhopal. With the lake on one side and animals on the other. There are lot of peacocks 🦚around. Lot of different birds. It’s hard to get the glimpse of tiger 🐯 and leopards 🐆. As their cage are huge. Entry fee for car is 300 rupees. They tell you to not honk while driving. But some dumb people still honk and disturb the animals. So please remember this while you visit next time.

Van Vihar National Park is the perfect spot to spend a peaceful morning or evening in Bhopal. Whether you prefer walking, cycling, riding your Scooty, or driving through in your car, the park is designed to accommodate all. On one side, you’re treated to the calm beauty of the Upper Lake, and on the other, lush greenery surrounds you — it’s truly the best of both worlds. The park is a great place to catch a breathtaking sunrise or sunset by the lake. You’ll also come across a variety of animals, birds, and butterflies, making it a serene escape into nature. There’s a charming little café by the lakeside inside the park — a nice place to sit and unwind, though the prices are slightly on the higher side. I’d also recommend renting a cycle from outside (either your own or the electric ones available nearby) for a more enjoyable and comfortable experience as the cycles available inside are mostly partially broken. A must-visit for nature lovers and anyone looking to slow down and take in the beauty of Bhopal.

Van vihar National park and open zoo combination with free walking tail . Many animals and very good think about animals interpretation centres .

Van Vihar National Park is a serene, well‑managed wildlife haven set within Bhopal’s city limits. It offers an enriching blend of ecological restoration, conservation education, and urban nature‑escape. It’s great for families, school groups, birders, and anyone seeking wildlife charm without long-distance travel.

ChatGPT You said: Write about mamleshwar ChatGPT said: Sure 🙂 — here’s a clear and informative write-up about Mamleshwar Temple (also called Amreshwar Temple): Mamleshwar Temple (Amreshwar Temple), Omkareshwar Location: Omkareshwar, Madhya Pradesh, India Deity: Lord Shiva Significance: One of the ancient Shiva temples located near the Omkareshwar Jyotirlinga 🌺 Overview Mamleshwar Temple, also known as Amreshwar Temple, is one of the two main temples situated on the banks of the sacred Narmada River at Omkareshwar, Madhya Pradesh. The other temple across the river is the famous Omkareshwar Jyotirlinga, one of the 12 Jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva in India. While Omkareshwar represents the "Lord of Om", Mamleshwar (Amreshwar) is considered the "Immortal Lord". Both temples together are believed to complete the spiritual essence of the Jyotirlinga, and pilgrims usually visit both to complete their darshan. 🛕 Architecture The Mamleshwar Temple is an excellent example of ancient Nagara-style architecture. Built using sandstone, it features intricate carvings of deities, floral motifs, and mythological scenes. The temple has a massive Shivalinga made of smooth black stone. The peaceful and spiritual ambience is enhanced by the sound of the Narmada flowing nearby. 📜 Mythological Significance According to Hindu mythology, the Jyotirlinga of Omkareshwar appeared when Lord Shiva manifested as a pillar of divine light to prove his supremacy. The region’s name, Omkareshwar, comes from the island shaped like the sacred symbol “ॐ (Om).” It is believed that worshipping both Omkareshwar and Mamleshwar is necessary to receive the full blessings of the Jyotirlinga. 🧘‍♂️ Spiritual Importance Devotees believe that offering prayers at Mamleshwar brings: Peace and prosperity Relief from past karmas Divine blessings of Lord Shiva Visiting Mamleshwar Temple was a truly divine and peaceful experience. The moment I entered the temple complex, I felt a deep sense of calm — as if time had slowed down. The rhythmic sound of temple bells, the fragrance of incense, and the chanting of “Om Namah Shivaya” created a powerful spiritual aura. The temple’s ancient stone carvings and its sacred Shivalinga reflect centuries of devotion. Standing there, near the banks of the holy Narmada River, I could feel the purity of the place — a rare mix of energy and peace together. I offered water and flowers to Lord Shiva, and as the priest performed the aarti, the golden glow of lamps filled the temple with divine light. Watching the Narmada flow quietly beside the temple added a magical charm — it felt like the river herself was blessing every devotee who came there. The experience left me feeling spiritually refreshed and deeply connected — as if Lord Shiva was silently watching over everything.

Beautiful and Pleasent.. Temple management has done its best to manage people.. if they could arrange free van move for Elderly.. it would have been better.

It is sacred place to visit, it is most of most beautiful place outside a beautiful river narmada river is flowing. Looking amaze before visiting Mamleshwar jyotirlinga first you have to visit Omkareshwar temple then you follow the mamleshwar temple. It can take around 1+ hour in waiting. Better to carry water bottle with you in both the jyotirlinga darshan. Take a holy dip in Narmada river and have Darshan of both Jyotirlinga temple. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

The Mamleshwar Temple, also known as Amareshwar or Amreshwar, is a sacred temple dedicated to Lord Shiva. It is situated located on the southern bank of the Narmada River in Omkareshwar, Madhya Pradesh. It is situated on the mainland, directly opposite the Omkareshwar Jyotirlinga temple on Mandhata Island. The temple is known for its historical significance and sandstone architecture. The temple houses a revered Jyotirlinga and is considered equally important as the Omkareshwar temple, completing the pilgrimage circuit together. Date visited : 21.10.2025

That place has a certain energy, you know? Totally chill vibes, way more laid back. The air feels cleaner, like you can actually breathe. It's got that quiet hum that just makes you want to sit and soak it all in. Definitely less crowded, which is a huge plus. I could just wander around for hours. So peaceful, it's hard to describe. Om Namah Shivay!!

While it may be magical & all, no denying on that part - the management cannot get any worse! Someone definitely need to solve the chaos here. Else such an amazing place will become difficult for its devotees.

Considered as half Jyotriling. It’s is assumed that after darshan of mamleshwar shivling complete darshan is consider. Must attend Aarti there. Divine experience

Better to carry water bottle with you in both the jyotirlinga darshan. Take a holy dip in Narmada river and have Darshan of both Jyotirlinga temple. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

The Mamleshwar Temple, also known as Amareshwar or Amreshwar, is a sacred temple dedicated to Lord Shiva. It is situated located on the southern bank of the Narmada River in Omkareshwar, Madhya Pradesh. It is situated on the mainland, directly opposite the Omkareshwar Jyotirlinga temple on Mandhata Island. The temple is known for its historical significance and sandstone architecture. The temple houses a revered Jyotirlinga and is considered equally important as the Omkareshwar temple, completing the pilgrimage circuit together. Date visited : 21.10.2025

That place has a certain energy, you know? Totally chill vibes, way more laid back. The air feels cleaner, like you can actually breathe. It's got that quiet hum that just makes you want to sit and soak it all in. Definitely less crowded, which is a huge plus. I could just wander around for hours. So peaceful, it's hard to describe. Om Namah Shivay!!

While it may be magical & all, no denying on that part - the management cannot get any worse! Someone definitely need to solve the chaos here. Else such an amazing place will become difficult for its devotees.

Considered as half Jyotriling. It’s is assumed that after darshan of mamleshwar shivling complete darshan is consider. Must attend Aarti there. Divine experience

ChatGPT You said: Write about mamleshwar ChatGPT said: Sure 🙂 — here’s a clear and informative write-up about Mamleshwar Temple (also called Amreshwar Temple): Mamleshwar Temple (Amreshwar Temple), Omkareshwar Location: Omkareshwar, Madhya Pradesh, India Deity: Lord Shiva Significance: One of the ancient Shiva temples located near the Omkareshwar Jyotirlinga 🌺 Overview Mamleshwar Temple, also known as Amreshwar Temple, is one of the two main temples situated on the banks of the sacred Narmada River at Omkareshwar, Madhya Pradesh. The other temple across the river is the famous Omkareshwar Jyotirlinga, one of the 12 Jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva in India. While Omkareshwar represents the "Lord of Om", Mamleshwar (Amreshwar) is considered the "Immortal Lord". Both temples together are believed to complete the spiritual essence of the Jyotirlinga, and pilgrims usually visit both to complete their darshan. 🛕 Architecture The Mamleshwar Temple is an excellent example of ancient Nagara-style architecture. Built using sandstone, it features intricate carvings of deities, floral motifs, and mythological scenes. The temple has a massive Shivalinga made of smooth black stone. The peaceful and spiritual ambience is enhanced by the sound of the Narmada flowing nearby. 📜 Mythological Significance According to Hindu mythology, the Jyotirlinga of Omkareshwar appeared when Lord Shiva manifested as a pillar of divine light to prove his supremacy. The region’s name, Omkareshwar, comes from the island shaped like the sacred symbol “ॐ (Om).” It is believed that worshipping both Omkareshwar and Mamleshwar is necessary to receive the full blessings of the Jyotirlinga. 🧘‍♂️ Spiritual Importance Devotees believe that offering prayers at Mamleshwar brings: Peace and prosperity Relief from past karmas Divine blessings of Lord Shiva Visiting Mamleshwar Temple was a truly divine and peaceful experience. The moment I entered the temple complex, I felt a deep sense of calm — as if time had slowed down. The rhythmic sound of temple bells, the fragrance of incense, and the chanting of “Om Namah Shivaya” created a powerful spiritual aura. The temple’s ancient stone carvings and its sacred Shivalinga reflect centuries of devotion. Standing there, near the banks of the holy Narmada River, I could feel the purity of the place — a rare mix of energy and peace together. I offered water and flowers to Lord Shiva, and as the priest performed the aarti, the golden glow of lamps filled the temple with divine light. Watching the Narmada flow quietly beside the temple added a magical charm — it felt like the river herself was blessing every devotee who came there. The experience left me feeling spiritually refreshed and deeply connected — as if Lord Shiva was silently watching over everything.

Beautiful and Pleasent.. Temple management has done its best to manage people.. if they could arrange free van move for Elderly.. it would have been better.

"The Kela Mata temple in Dewas is truly magnificent. It's sprawling across a vast area, and the idols here are quite large and captivating."

Another important temple to visit in the holy town of Dewas, if you're here to pay obeisance at the Maa Chamunda Devi mandir. Kaila Devi mandir is located just 15-20 minutes away from the former. Apart from Rajasthan's Kaila Devi who's the presiding deity, there are numerous other temples located to other divinities.

Beautiful temple to visit in Dewas... A peaceful place to visit. You can hangout with kids during evening time... The surroundings of temple have been best to worship.. There is huge statue of Bajrang Bali and Devi Maa.. Also there are small small gardens inside, sitting arrangements.. There is parking area as well.

Kaila devi Mandir is very and famous temple of Dewas. It is also famous for Bhagwan Hanuman Ji temple. There are otheir Idols Bhagwan Shiv. Mata Kaila Devi Ji and Pawan Putter hanuman Ji. Person from all over Madhya Pradesh Come to see this Temple. Jai Mata Di. 🙏🙏

Very Beautyful Temple big hanuman statue above 51 Feet

the main temple of kaila devi is in Kuroli Rajasthan but this temple has equal importance in mythology !! devi herself requested his devotee that she want to come to dewas !! It has a great stroy behind it !! We visited the temple around 11am and it was too hot in dewas ! we visited the place after after chamunda tekri and their was no crowd ! the darshans of devi is first kaila devi in saffron colour than Idol of devi durga in middle and third i dont remember !! Their is a huge Idol of Hanuman ji and Durga devi ! also their is a shiva temple !! Great Darshans

Jai Mata Di. Kaila Devi temple is a major Piligrimage site and tourist attraction in Dewas city. During the time of both Navaratris various activities like Bhagwat Ji and Kathas were organised by the trust run by the temple association. Once upon a time a great fair was organised here but after sometime that was stopped. Jyortirlinga Mahadev temple, Maa Vaishno Devi Cave, Maa Durga Statue (41 feet), Shri Hanuman Ji Statue (51 feet), and Maa Kaila Devi temple are the major attraction of this place.

Best time to visit is August last week and September 1st week

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.

Amazing place Memorable pic,s

The best place for photoshoot for the photo lovers

Very beautiful and adventurous places

Natural water fall at village tincha (near till or and Ralamandal).time to visit in July to September. You can get tea, bhutta and readymade namkins only.

This newly built guesthouse / Accomodation is truly amazing and has its own aura. Just next to mandir , one can feel blessed . Very calming premises with almost all facilities.

Amazing Mandir. The Garb Gruh is on the ground floor and there's a Sabhamandap on the upper floor where Satsang sabha is there every Sunday evening. The campus also features a guesthouse, with 20 AC rooms for the convenience of travellers. There's also a Dining Hall within the Main building itself. Mandir is very nicely decorated with Parks around it. There's a well established community which attends the Sabha every weekend, and they are nice to talk to. Worth a visit

Despite its widespread fame in the city, I was pleasantly surprised to find no crowds or rush, allowing for a truly serene and meditative experience.

I visited Khajrana Ganpati Temple on the weekend around 2 PM. The vibes of the temple were truly divine – Ganpati Bappa Morya! It was a little crowded at that time, but manageable. The temple has a wonderful archway and beautifully designed premises with other small temples as well. Overall, it was a peaceful and spiritual experience — definitely a must-visit in Indore.

Visited Rajwada during the daytime — it’s a nice place for a short visit. The architecture reflects Indore’s royal history, and the area around it is quite lively with local shops and food stalls. Good spot to explore if you’re in the city center!

Echoes of Time — Rajwada, Indore By Musafir Nama (@Rana’s Photography) Indore wasn’t just another stop on my official trip — it turned into a walk through history. Before heading back to Delhi, my curiosity led me to the heart of the city — Rajwada Palace, a place where every arch and corridor whispers stories of the Holkar dynasty. As I stepped inside, the air felt different — heavy with heritage, yet peaceful. The long corridors echoed with the footsteps of the past. The stone arches stood tall, as if still guarding the royal memories etched in them. Each turn revealed symmetry, strength, and silence — a reminder of India’s architectural brilliance. Descending the narrow stone staircase felt like entering another era — dimly lit, mysterious, timeless. And when I finally stood in the courtyard, looking at the magnificent façade, I could almost imagine the royal gatherings that once filled this space with life and laughter. Travel isn’t always about distance — sometimes it’s about depth. Rajwada reminded me how every city has a soul, waiting to be heard. 📍 Rajwada Palace, Indore 🎥 Captured on an unplanned detour 📸 @Rana’s Photography ✨ Keep wandering. Keep feeling. — #MusafirNama

Situated amidst the small village with a nice view to the river front. Approach road is all paved, though if coming via Indore, an adventure awaits for you if you choose the path less taken. 😉

A warrior in the making who fought 40 battles undefeated and I must say that his final resting place is ignored being a decorated Peshwa army commander. Bajirao Peshwa was known for his battlefield tactics, shrewd guerrilla warfare and blazing speed of covering a journey from Delhi to Mumbai in 72 hours on a horse back. The last know battle fought by the Peshwa was at Mandu where he established Maratha rule. Due to extreme humidity the Peshwa took ill and developed extreme sunstroke and fever and passed away at the banks of Narmada river and his samadhi was built at Raverkhedi. The Peshwa was only 40 years old at the time of his death.

A thirthkshetra for a Maharashtrian. It was an accidental discovery but glad I found it. It’s on the way to Ahilya fort, Maheshwar. Slight detour. But, if you’re an ardent follower of Maratha history, you will. Nicely managed by Madhya Pradesh tourism. Thank you MP tourism for that.

Here lies the man who fought through his life with invaders for the love of his land. On the banks of Narmada in a non descript village lies one the greatest warrior Maa Bharti has given birth to. If you are near Maheshwari do visit this samamdhi. You will feel the blood running in your veins.

No words can describe the feeling of reaching this place. So proud to be from the same place to which this great, undefeated warrior belongs.

Beautiful view of Narmada river from terrace. Resting place of one of the best warrior from Maratha kingdom.

The place is a must visit by every Indian to pay a humble and sincere tribute to the finest cavalry General BharatVarsh has seen, infact a World class cavalry General. There is a temple made by his Queen Kashibai nearby. The Samadhi is simple and serene made by his patrons The locals say that the real cenotaph was washed away in the Narmada flood. There are more development works planned to uplift the place. The final 300 meters of the path to the Smadhi are through Raver village lanes. There is a small shop outside. The Narmada river flows adjacent and the aura is sober and serene.

I recently got a chance to revisit Kaanch Mandir on the auspicious occasion of Dhoop Dashmi, and it was an absolutely divine experience. The temple, made entirely of glass and mirrors, looks stunning on any day but on Dhoop Dashmi, with beautifully crafted Mandal Ji, its beauty and spiritual glow were truly beyond words. The temple is located in the main market area, so I’d recommend visiting by public transport or two-wheeler for convenience, as parking space is limited. If you’re in Indore, this sacred place is a must-visit - the artistry here is truly a masterpiece. – Muskan 🙏

This stunning Kanch Mahal Jain Temple, dedicated to Bhagwan Mahaveer, is a true marvel of artistry and devotion. Every inch of its walls glitters with mirror inlay, glass mosaics, and hand-painted depictions of Jain stories. The intricate craftsmanship reflects both spiritual depth and aesthetic brilliance. Standing inside, surrounded by light and reflection, you feel an aura of peace, divinity, and timeless heritage. A sacred place where devotion meets dazzling design — truly an unforgettable experience.

A beautiful temple which is a must see to admire how beautiful glass work is used to make this. They don't allow photography in to maintain the decorum of the place. They are very strict about it too.

This early 20th-century Jain marvel is an architectural feast, with literally every surface—walls, floor, ceiling, and pillars—covered in intricate glass and mirror mosaics. Step inside, and the reflections create a breathtaking illusion of infinite idols! Be prepared, though: while the artistry is stunning, the place is showing its age and could use better maintenance. Also, don't be surprised if the security staff seems a bit curt. Regardless, this shimmering wonder is a must-see for its truly unique beauty!

I'm surprised ans shocked how come others have clicked so many pictures 😞🥲 while we abided by the laws. Clicking inside pics wasn't allowed so we did not. It's beautiful😍✨❤ marvelous and gorgeous. Entirely made of glass and it's picturesque 😍🥰💕 Guards watch and keep an eye that we don't click pics ✌

It is 110 years old Jain mandir belonging to Digamber jain sect. Totally made of glass. Photography inside the temple is not permitted. Timing from 10.30am to 5PM. No entry fee. Inside there are deities of Shanti Nath jain, Digambar Jain. Located in the market area. Peaceful.

One of the best kaanch ka temple i have ever seen. Kaach Mandir is a stunning Jain temple near Dhanvantri Mandir, beautifully adorned with glasswork and mirrors. The vibrant designs and peaceful ambiance make it a serene and spiritual experience. It’s not crowded, and the caretakers are kind and informative. A must-visit for anyone in Ujjain! Note - TOURISTS ARE ALLOWED ONLY TILL 8 PM.

My experience was quite good, but to get there you first need to bargain with the auto drivers. They will ask for ₹100, but you should only give them ₹20. They will tell you that the gate charges parking fees, but in reality, the parking is only ₹10. The place is not very far from the gate, so you can also go by walking. As for inside, you won’t find drinking water there, so it’s better to carry your own water bottle. The entry ticket is just ₹20. There isn’t much special inside the palace. However, it’s a nice place for couples—it’s peaceful, surrounded by forest, and you can sit quietly and talk. But if you are going with your family, then you won’t really find it that enjoyable.

Lal Bagh Palace is one of the most fascinating heritage gems in Indore, and my visit here was an unexpectedly rich experience. The moment you step inside the massive iron gates, imported from London and said to be inspired by those of Buckingham Palace, you instantly feel the grandeur of the Holkar era. The palace was built in phases between 1886 and 1921 by the Holkar rulers, mainly by Tukoji Rao Holkar II and III, and it served as one of their important residences. Knowing that you are walking through the same corridors where the Holkar royal family lived makes the visit even more special. The interiors are the real showstopper. The palace has a strong European architectural influence, especially Italian and French styles. The grand ballroom, with its large Belgian mirrors and ornate decorations, is absolutely breathtaking. One interesting fact I loved learning about is that the ballroom’s floor was designed with springs inside so that it would vibrate with the rhythm of the music during royal dances something truly ahead of its time. Another surprising feature is the European-style elevator, which was installed more than a century ago! Seeing such engineering in a palace of that era is genuinely impressive. The walls, furniture, chandeliers, and artwork, all reflect the luxurious lifestyle of the Holkars. Every room seems to preserve a piece of history. The palace also sits on a beautiful 28-acre estate, and although some areas outside could use better maintenance, the overall charm is still intact. The museum section displays old photographs, royal artifacts, weapons, and personal belongings that give insight into the Holkar dynasty’s cultural legacy. What I personally found most interesting is that Lal Bagh Palace used to host major diplomatic and royal gathering, it wasn’t just a residence but a symbol of Indore’s power, culture, and openness to global influences.

This is a grand palace with a lot of European architectural influence. But it has its own pros and cons. Pros: Beautiful architecture and high ceilings (I really like buildings with high ceilings). Massive garden area in the premises. And since Indore doesn’t have a lot to offer, you can visit this to pass time. Cons: It’s under renovation for restoration work. Most of the palace is inaccessible. There is not much to see with what is accessible. If you have visited a lot of museums and palaces, you won’t enjoy it at all. Ticket price is only Rs 20 pp.

I am disappointed and feeling cheated. The Lalbagh Palace is under renovation but they didn't tell me this before I bought the high priced ticket (400) for foreigners. Only a few ground floor rooms are accessible, other ones are closed. The garden is poorly maintained and littered, the toilet is broken and dirty. When I asked why the renovation wasn't mentioned, they said it is written. Yes, in Hindi. Why they couldn't write that two words: "Under renovation" in English? Waste of money and time. This high entry fees for foreigners, the constant discrimination, will not develop the international tourism.

Lalbagh Palace at Indore was built by the Holkar Dynasty. The Holkars resided in the palace up to 1978. After the demise of Tukojirao Holkar(III), his granddaughter Usha Raje set up a trust to look after the estate. Later, it was brought under the control of State Government. It is a lovely palace to visit and has some beautifully decorated rooms which are very similar in architecture to what you see in Windsor palace. So whenever you are planning a trip to Indore, do visit this iconic Palace, and fall in love with its wonderful architecture. Owing to its real royal feel, Lal Bagh Palace has remained one of the favourite Bollywood shooting location. Many movies like Kalank, Singh Saab the Great and Mahal (Tamil Movie) have been shot in the palace. Date visited : 22.10.2025

Beautiful palace. Restoration work was in progress when we visited on 2nd Nov. 2025. Once restoration written is completed, interiors of the palace should look fabulous. Worth a visit if you are in Indore.

Holkar palace built in 72 acres of land, worth visiting to know the history & rulers of Indore. Also the rawness of Garden around the palace invites many drawing artists & peace loving person's.

Worst engineering College i have ever seen, Teaching Staffs are lack of knowledge and experience, Education quality is very bad.

Infrastructure is good, Library with lots of books are available , computer lab as well as all the labs for every stream with full equipped with new instrument is present . Faculty and college staffs are good in nature, they guide and advice in time of need. College is good for engineering aspirant.

Since the foundation, this college has consistently zero percentage placement record till now. No lab facility. No Events . No hackathons . No celebration. One can easily score higher credits in degree by being a puppet of temporary worthless faculty and support their petty agendas. (Teacher of Mathematics are adept, but core engineering subject teacher will talk politics and ask you to attend class so they can get their Payrolls.) All the excellent reviews are from either faculty member or from some students who still want to get good grades from faculty in mid-sem and practical. In this college, faculty and peon have the same knowledge and standard. Peon too can talk politics and teach the subject by narrating what written in books.

In context of learning this institute fail the providing tha facility. Politics are attached more day by day It's become downword. Not a single permanent faculty teach here. Students attract the name of University but after joining the course they faced challenges regarding the study. Zero placement and no lab (at all). I repeat no lab !!! (Only theoretical study) takes place here) . 3 stars for office staff & decent teachers (who are temporary) Easy exams, one can get good marks with less study, but you need to have> 80% attendence then you can get good internal and mid sem marks. In the name of engineering .. Students are cheated .. No labs no single labs no placement. No permanent faculties .. No discipline

Clg is good. Helping nature of all faculty. Some new facilities added this year ,so overall u can make your future from here.

College are good in a manner of faculty...all faculty are come daily at a time and its provide also extra curriculam activites like sports on a national level as well as ncc or nss and main positive things is that faculty are too supportive any body want to prepare for comptitative exam like gate ilets cat faculty will give to time for self study....😊😊😊😊

This is a government college for engineering student here you get a Degree of B.E .In this college lab available for only civil branch. And faculty are good but management and people related to management are very bad.exams are never held on right time always 1-2 months late.The staff of engineering college are non technical they have no idea of technical but they run a technical college that's why management are very bad.only the plus point of college is it is government college that's all.

It's a good picnic spot for indorians, but it's good until you keep your self safe. After rain the fall becomes attractive.Now a days so many shops are there to fulfill the needs of public travelling to it.

Amazing place for a short picnic. Few food stalls available but beware of monkeys. Amazing view points. Water flow was high in October 2025. I reached Mhow Railway and took a to and fro auto for 500 Rs. Do bargain. However if you have own vehicle its much easier.

It is a very picturesque spot, especially in monsoon when the water gushes down the 200-foot deep gorge. The view is very scenic when the sun sets. A good place for a nice trekking or camping activity also. People should rake efforts to keep the area clean. Beware of monkeys as they can be troublesome sometimes. Adequate parking space is available. It is also a historical spot to commemorate the heroics of Tantya Bheel against the British.

It's a beautiful place, lack of maintenance. Full of trash and junk. And I understand some people trying to make money out of visitors, with photographers set up and occupied all the spot and chats Dukan. They make the place miserable loud , noisy and dirty.
