Pachmarhi

We planned a bike trip to Pachmarhi For Thursday to Sunday.

If you are planning from Bhopal, you can reach here in ~4 hours  less or more depending upon number of stops you take. We took a break at MP tourism restaurant at Pipariya. There's one more available after Pipariya which also looked good.

The roads are good in between, and jungle is on both side, loved the  roads amid nature.

We have already booked a hotel online for 1 day it through GoIbibo costed around 800. For weekdays charges are low but for weekend charges are very high.

We checked in and explored around the market a little. As it was a working day we did our office work in hotel, had lunch.

In evening we went to Rajgiri for seeing sunset.

It's a garden on a good height from where we can see the range of mountains. Some points like Handi khoh, Chuaragarh fort and other are visible from there.

It was not much crowdy due to weekday, so we explored freely, captured photos and came back.

Then we enquired around 10-12 for hotel for next day, the cost is now higher as its for Friday. We finalized a hotel for 1500, had dinner and came back.

Day 2 - Friday

As it was weekday we had to start working around 11.  We woke up had breakfast, joined a meeting and went out.

We visited Handi Khoh, Priyadarshini and Mahadev Mandir(plus Gupt Mahadev)

Handi khoh have Average view

Then Priyadarshini also is good and Chauragarh temple is visible from there as well.

Then we went to Mahadev Mandir which is inside a cave. Cave is not long or risky temple is good and peaceful.

This is the place where Vishnu ji made Bhasmasur to put his hand on his own head which caused  the end of Bhasmasur.

The place itself is peaceful, and pretty.

Some 200 m from there on the lower side, Gupt Mahadev temple is there.

There is very narrow path of few 20 steps inside and not much space is there m we need to go one sided 6-8 peoples are allowed to enter at a time as entry exit is from same narrow path.

After that we came back for workin.
