    • I like its beauty and historical places as I have in many books but could not see still. But I know that Mahabaleshwar lies on the mountain ranges of the Western Ghats in Maharashtra. It is at an altitude of 1372 meters and overlooks the Krishna and Koyna valley.

      Mahabaleshwar is a very popular hill station in Maharashtra because of its placid lakes, verdant hills and cascading waterfalls. It is not only famous for its scenic beauty but also for its various temples, spectacular viewpoints and historically significant places.

      It is a great place for holidaying as it provides ample opportunities for leisure activities such as fishing, boating and trekking. If you feel this just the holiday resort where you would like to go for your next holiday, then you can book tour package and hotel accommodation at Mahabaleshwar with Hill Resorts India.

      Mahabaleshwar tour to Mahabaleshwar temple. The temple in its present state, is surrounded by 5 feet high stone wall. The main temple has two apartments, the inner room, which is the God chamber and the outer room which is the central hall. The temple is dedicate to Lord Shiva and enshrines a 'lingam'. The Hill resort of Mahabaleshwar is named after the presiding deity of this temple, Lord Mahabali, which is also why it is considered a major landmark of Mahabaleshwar.

    • I visited this place a very long back. We covered this place under a package tour We had been to Mumbai and from there we wanted to make a trip to nearby places. We visited Shirdi. After our return, we had to stay in Mumbai for a day due to some official work. After the work was completed we planned to visit two places one is Puna and the other one happened to be Mahabaleshwar. We actually had no idea of this place though we heard about it.

      There were no Cell phones and Computers at that time. We had to depend on the Travel Agencies only. I came to know that Pune comes on the way itself. So fixed this journey. The journey takes only 5 1/2 hours in those days. There was no good transport system also. So after spending some time in Pune in my friends' house, I proceeded to this place. This was really a great experience. I could click my Camera taking some beautiful pictures. We had our lunch in Satara which was somewhat different.
      The western ghats view was excellent. But, this is more excellent when we travel from Mangalore to Goa.
      Anyhow I have to plan for this place again as there is lot of development both in the transport system as well as communication system.
