Recently, I had gone to Devlaali a place in Maharashtra.
Its located on the outskurts of Nasik.
Its like a heaven for all those Delhiites who are searching for a kalm place to escape the heat of Delhi!
I had gone their for about 9 days.
I stayed at my uncle's house in hill range.
As it is located on short hills, its neither too cold nor too hot.
Its maximum temperature reaches 40 degree celcius.
It happens rarely!
The afternoons are a bit warm, but mornings and evenings are really pleasent!
In nights, a cold wave blows.
It is as cold as 16 temperature of the AC!

Places to visit:
1. Godavari river.
2. Trayambakeshwar. (located very near)
3. Dharna dam.
4. Shirdi. (located about 90 KM)
5. Markets, and for shopping lovers, city centre mall (includes big bazaar!).
The big bazaar of Devlaali is very huge and good as compared to that of Delhi.
The view of the clouds covering the mountains looks awsam!

How to reach:
