Tirathgarh Falls

Reviewed By Saurabh2402 - Raipur, India

..After a check out from Dandami Resort and a lot of fun in Chitrakoot Falls, the Morning Journey started. It takes Approximately One and a Half Hour to reach Tirathgarh Falls from Chitrakoot Falls. Finally we reached our destination, with a very refreshing feeling, as we saw in the middle of the journey, the green bush, large Cedar(Devdaar) trees and a small Ghat section. Really very beautiful and unimaginable. I think Tirathgarh Falls is the cleanest waterfall in India, and may be in the whole world, it’s a Pure WHITE WATER. Falls is very good like milk is flowing from rock. Worth the drive. It was very delightful to see this serene waterfall after seeing a monstrous form of Chitrakoot waterfall. There are so many information, about this waterfall is available on Internet, but I want to Focus about enjoyment of Locomotory disable Persons and Old age Persons, As i am myself. That’s the only thing I had noted, nice about this waterfall is that, you can see it from the top. If you are elderly and have trouble walking, you can get a great view by taking it halfway down the path leading to the waterfall. It’s very easy to get from the parking lot to the top of the viewing area so everybody can enjoy this falls. They have a viewing deck. There are Some More Positive points as, Good parking area. The park is well maintained. You can also picnic here (Picnic table and shelter, perfect for lunch outside!), But monkeys surround you from all sides. There are stairs for lower deck viewing as well. Perfect place for couples or the entire family! The trail is very well marked and easy to navigate! The large viewing platform is excellent. The thing that makes this good for a family of all ages, if you or somebody in your family is handicap or elderly, he also enjoy the Beautiful scenery and feel the nature. If you are a nature lover, you will practically stop breathing after seeing this waterfall. Also, there was an amazing overlook on the way. So picturesque! Stop and look behind, you will be amazed Wishing all Readers a Happy Holiday and Safe Drive..

Chitrakot Waterfall

Reviewed By Saurabh2402 - Raipur, India

Mega Impressive Waterfalls.. Raw power and Majestic beauty, such a lovely and unique landmark, it blows my mind, this waterfall produces a Mist that can be felt from several blocks away.. Definitely worth the trip, giant spectacular natural waterfalls, I say rolling waterfalls, must see it to experience it.. At 95 ft high and 980 ft wide, not just the waterfall, but the entire surrounding area is a treasure. Trip behind the falls, i.e. About the Journey & Stay: Started at 09:00 in the morning from Raipur reached 05:00 in the evening at Dandami Resort; 2-3 Stops for Photo-shoots, Tea Break, Lunch etc.. National Highway 30 is at very good condition, Roads are buttery idyllic lush green & passes through dense forest, but after Makri Hotel to Kondagaon near about 100 Kms Road is pathetic, you will have to be patience while driving, Because this 100 km, will definitely test you & your driving skills and patience to drive. But on the same route you will experience 12 hair pin bends of huge KESHKAAL GHAAT, in fact its beauty at its best. Stay on the main roads and the National & state Highways. You can say this stretch is a bumpy ride. Try to avoid Google maps for shortcut as they create trouble for you. Also must pay homage to Telni Mata Mandir at KESHKAAL GHAAT, because there is a belief here that by doing this, your journey becomes comfortable. We stayed at Dandami Luxury Resort right next to the falls.. Again experienced one of the BEST PROPERTY OF CG TOURISM.. The rest, I will include in its personal review. Best time to visit: If you want to see the waterfall in full bloom, enjoy it during monsoon (July to September).. Some More Details of Falls and its nearby area: There is no entry fee but you have to pay parking fees for your vehicle. Scenic view of the falls, easily accessible by foot.. You need not go downstairs or upstairs to reach this waterfall. You can go down to the river by climbing down steps for a boat ride which will take you around in the river near the waterfall and to the other side of fall. This is basically for trekking and camping. Not many good restaurants around, so carry your food along, but please don’t be uncivilized visitors, and stop consuming food near the waterfalls and stop spreading single use plastic wrappers and bottles near this beautiful place. There are plenty of other falls and attractions nearby, to make this trip that lasts a few days. The roaring water is mesmerising and awe inspiring! I would love to come back during summer to see different scenic views. Wishing all Readers a Happy Holiday and Safe Drive..

Its located a bit off road so not many people know about it. The height of the fall is spectacular and you can enjoy and rest in solemn. Do return before sunset.

Bastar Palace

Bastar Palace is one of the prime tourist attractions in Jagdalpur. Built by the rulers of the Bastar state, the palace was renowned as the headquarters of the Bastar kingdom. The palace is historically famous and thousands of tourists visit Jagdalpur to have a look of this momentous architectural splendour. The Bastar Palace is said to have been built during the ancient times when the rulers of Bastar shifted their capital from Barsur to Jagdalpur. The main attraction here is the exquisite carvings and engravings that one can find on the walls and ceiling of the palace. The government has built a monument inside the palace vicinity, wherein tourists can enjoy seeing various artifacts and the portraits of the bygone kings. The beautiful gardens that encircle the palace are a sight to behold.
