Bhopal/Lucknow. The beauty of Madhya Pradesh, which is called the heart of India, attracts tourists in every season, but with the arrival of monsoon, the geography and view of this state changes completely. The torrential rains between July and October breathe new life into the forests, mountains and valleys of MP. During this time, the historical forts here get surrounded by clouds, dry rivers come in spate and dry hills get covered with a velvety green sheet. According to Madhya Pradesh Tourism (MP Tourism), if you want to spend some moments of peace by going close to nature in this monsoon season, then these 5 magical places of Madhya Pradesh, which are known for their high waterfalls and beautiful valleys, will make your journey memorable forever. 1. Pachmarhi: The only hill station of Madhya Pradesh (Queen of Satpura), Pachmarhi, situated amidst the Satpura hills, gets hidden in the shadow of clouds during monsoon. The temperature here is very pleasant between July and October and deep green valleys are visible all around. Main attractions: ‘Bee Fall’ and ‘Duchess Fall’ are in full bloom during the rainy days. Apart from this, seeing the view of the setting sun from Handi Khoh (deep valley) and Dhupgarh is no less than heaven. How to reach: The nearest railway station is Pipariya, about 50 kilometers from Pachmarhi. 2. Bhedaghat (Jabalpur): Magical drops of Dhuandhar Falls. Situated just 25 kilometers away from Jabalpur, Bhedaghat is famous for the huge marble rocks on the banks of river Narmada. Main Attractions: During monsoon, when the waters of Narmada are in spate, the view of ‘Dhuandhar Waterfall’ is worth seeing. Water falls with such height and velocity that an atmosphere like fog or smoke is created all around. During the rainy season, this form of water stream flowing among the marble valleys is awe-inspiring. 3. Mandu: The meeting of historical ruins and valleys, Mandu, located about 90 kilometers from Indore, is a historical city which testifies to the immortal love of Rani Roopmati and Baz Bahadur. Main Attractions: During monsoon days, dark clouds are seen floating over the tall palaces and forts of Mandu. The deep green valleys like Kakra Khoh and the natural beauty around Jahaz Mahal are worth seeing in this season. Visiting Mandu during monsoon is a great experience for history and nature lovers. 4. Amarkantak: The origin of Narmada and the calm valleys, Amarkantak, situated amidst the Maikal hills, is not only a sacred pilgrimage site but also a very beautiful natural place. It acts as a watershed between the Indian Ocean and the Bay of Bengal. Main Attractions: The holy Narmada and Son rivers originate from here. During monsoon, the dense forests and hills of Amarkantak are covered with clouds. The ‘Kapil Dhara’ and ‘Dudh Dhara’ waterfalls here drenched in rain water mesmerize the tourists. 5. Patalpani and Tincha Falls (Indore): Best weekend destination If you are in Indore or its surrounding areas, then there can be no better place than Patalpani and Tincha Falls to enjoy the monsoon. Key Attractions: Patalpani Falls falls from a height of about 300 feet and the deep valleys surrounding it become completely green. However, the water flow here increases suddenly during the rainy season, so tourists are strictly advised not to go too close to the waterfall and follow the warnings of the local administration.
