India)
or Matheran accommodation? Matheran is a beautiful town situated atop the Sahvadri Hills in India and is a popular getaway. The most intriguing fact about the town is that no vehicles are allowed inside it. This provides for one of the coolest and cleanest atmospheres in the world. Walking, horse back riding and hand-pulled rickshaws are the only modes of transportation. A trip through Matheran’s lush forests will prove to be a memorable one. The best time to visit Matheran is October to May to avoid the Monsoon season. The town provides picturesque vantage points to view the enchanting low lying plains and the Western Ghats. One can catch the sun rising from Panorama Point, and its descent at Monkey Point or Porcupine Point. Other areas such as Louisa Point sit on a plateau offering views of the ruined forts of Prabal and Vishalgarh. Echo Point as the name suggests, really does cause the sound of echoes to be heard from miles around. The highest point in Matheran is Mount Barry, offering spectacular views of the surrounding areas. These are but a few of the fun spots to visit in the town. A very attractive picnicking spot is Lake Charlotte, which provides the town with potable water. Behind this, is the Hindu Temple, Pisamath Mandir. Items which can be bought while shopping here include leather articles, hats and chappals. It is highly recommended that you try out Matheran’s sweet specialty, chikki. The secluded resorts found nested in Matheran’s forest provides exceptional accommodation to its guests. While staying at the Lord’s Central for example, you can benefit from the panoramic views of surrounding cliffs and valleys, as well as the peacefulness of the forested environment. Other comfortable resorts are the Woodland Hotel which is very reasonable in terms of cost and the Byke Estate with duplex cottages, a health club and a large swimming pool. - Browse the Matheran Map or compare Matheran accommodation from Hotels, Motels, B&Bs,
