Over the years Mapro Garden on the Panchgani Mahabaleshwar Road has become a major tourist attraction and a must visit place for most of the visitors to either of the twin hill stations. It is a stopover for refreshments or a meal, a shopping spot to pick up jams, squashes, juices, chocolates and memorabilia. Now, with a new mini Khakhra (crisp roasted wheat crackers) factory set up next to the Chocolate factory you can even sample and buy different flavoured Masala Khakhras, fresh and hot from the assembly line. One can even stop here for a picnic in the vicinity as there are some good parks and look-out points. There is a small garden with a rockery and fountain, and a playground with colourful three wheelers, where small children can play around. The garden overlooks the Krishna Valley, and if it’s not cloudy you can clearly see the Elephant’s Head near Kate’s Point in the distance. It is a good place for photography enthusiasts too. After spending some time strolling in the gardens and enjoying the natural beauty of their strawberry plantation, we decided to have our picnic lunch. No, not from a picnic basket, but from their large alfresco restaurant which serves excellent wood fired oven pizzas, grilled sandwiches, soups, juices, milkshakes and ice-creams. You can, however, bring an empty hamper to fill up with your shopping of jams, crushes, chocolates, khakhras and squashes to carry home with you! They have good, clean washrooms too, so travellers coming from faraway places generally take a break at Mapro Garden for a quick bite, and get refreshed for the last leg of their journey to Mahabaleshwar or Panchgani. They have also developed a huge free parking lot, off the main road, where the tourists can park their vehicles. Do keep in mind that this place is so popular that it is always overcrowded on weekends.
3. Devrai Art Village
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 55 reviews
Devrai Art Village tries to make a bridge between the far flung tribal areas and urban living. Our work addresses modern tastes and sensibilities but is inspired by traditional designs and techniques. Our craftsmen come from the Naxalite hit Gadchiroli and Chhatisgarh regions and are often caught in the crossfire between the State and the insurgents. DAV strives towards evolving a safe space where their creativity is nurtured and livelihoods sustained.

If you are interested in arts or the production process of art forms, this is a good place for you to visit in Panchgani. They have beautiful tribal and traditional art (sculptures of stone and brass, pictures with brass, amazing lamps made of pumpkins or so, small things like jewellery). There is one gallery where you can have a look and buy things, also you can see artists working on the new pieces of art in worksheds. Everybody was very friendly to us and explained the entire process in detail. The NGO itself is a very good idea, supporting tribal artists and preserving the traditional arts. I (Western foreigner) don't find the price too high or exaggerated - also keep in mind that these artefacts need lots of work and effort (20 days for one statue). The smaller ones are also affordable for me as a student (small lamp for 700 Rupees, jewellery starting from 250 Rupees, statues starting from 600 Rupees). Consider to come and support this nice small NGO. :)
