Mumbai is
known for its lively ambience and startling atmosphere. Mostly the busy life of
the city makes us tired and exhausted. If you wish to be free from the traffic
and busy life of the city for some time, here we have several destinations that
serve as refreshing getaways. A great such destination is –
Matheran.
Matheran is
really an amazing place where nature is playing active role with you and where
you can enjoy every breath of nature in the weekend time. Matheran retains the
vintage charm of hill stations developed by the British. When you look back to
the mid-eighteenth century when the town was discovered, there were absence
of surfaced roads and ponies were used in transporting luggage in these areas.
Matheran is the
smallest and the most coolheaded Hill Station situated in Karjat Tahsil, Raigad
District of Maharashtra India. The name Matheran simply means either ‘Forest on
Top’ or ‘Woodland overhead’. Matheran is a popular and breath taking site for
adventure lovers. There are rock climbing and paragliding in Matheran. This
hill station is the heart and soul for trekking rested on Western Ghats
mountain range in Maharashtra. The place discloses the dense green cover, of
eco friendly environment and pleasant climate with its scenic beauty. Matheran
literally means ‘forest on the
head’, which refers to the thick forests at the hill top.
If you visit
Matheran you should never miss the experience of the toy train which connects
Neral with Matheran which is one of the popular tourist attractions. A trip to
Matheran is totally incomplete until you take a ride in the train. The train
ride offers a spectacular view of nature and the sight of the toy train
chugging along the mountain-side is a not-to-be-missed experience.
