"Aati Kya Khandala" , this one song has put Khandala as one of the famous travel destinations of india. Although it is not worth a visit alone.. but sure is a very very good weekend getaway from busy cities of Pune and Mumbai. Specially beautiful in the month of Monsoon, it is known for its Waterfalls and pleasent weather. Going to Lonavala and Khandala be sure to take your car because one of the things you will like is the drive on the Pune Express way and road to amby valley.
Be sure to go to lonavala and khandala with a mindset of relaxing and dont try to cover points or travel locations as u might get disappointed. It is not comparable with himalayas or other higher hills but it is a cooler and a very near getaway from mumbai and pune.

Vaishnav Devi
I start my new blog Travel Destinations with India and a holy place.
Vaishnav Devi is one of the most beautiful destinations in north India. Temple is situated near the top of the mountain and 14KM away from the small town of Katra. People take holy walk of 14 Km to temple, however Horses , careers and even helicopters are available as other means. You could take Yatra Parchi from the counter at Katra or even on internet to avoid the Peak season rush.
Most interesting and amusing thing about vaishnav Devi is that u will be in touch with nature for the whole journey , 14Km of steep walk is no easy thing, but coupled with the songs and bhajans it feels like a piece of cake.
Katra is small ride from Jammu and buses are available at plenty from Jammu.
