Have you ever imagined how Elysium, Heaven, Zion, Paradise actually look like? Frankly they will be beautiful beyond imagination. But if someone will ask me now, I will say that if you want to experience Heaven on Earth then visit Dang District atleast once without fail. With the onset of Monsoon, some exotic places of Gujarat look even more spectacular and picturesque. As the journey advances, the feel of entering Paradise sets in. Something similar happened when I visited Dang District and began my journey with Saputara On reaching there at night, a cosy blanket of clouds welcomed me. At the Saputara Sunrise Point, you may or may not get to see the sun, but you will surely find the playful mountains mingling with the clouds and the mystical sky radiating beauty.
Fortunate are those who get to see the gurgling springs from the mountains but blessed are those who get to witness a spring of clouds rising from and within the mountains. I feel like curling and enveloping myself in this white blanket. You might have often heard that "Saputara is the Apple of Gujarat’s Eyes" The reason behind this will be well understood in this video. In this entire video, my talks and I, will be less because each alluring frame of Dang District wants to communicate with you (Tu Ane Tari Vaato)
If you want to self experience Heaven, then you need to come to governor hills, which is popularly also known as Table View Point. It is extremely beautiful. While traveling in South Gujarat during monsoon, you will get an opportunity to eat Star Fruit (Kamrakh) quite often. This sweet and sour tasting fruits helps you stay hydrated. This dam which brims with water in monsoon, is called Sarpaganga Sarovar Right now there isn’t any snake seen here,
but it is possible that once the sun shines, a snake might be seen on the banks enjoying and cuddling sunshine. A place which is capable of making you forget pictures from fairy tales is Saputara’s Sunset Point Not a single word in my dictionary can justify the beauty of this place. In the hustle and bustle of life, take a deep breath and spend time over here. It feels like Time has stopped over here. The morning atmosphere of Saputara is so majestic that even Raatraani would like to bloom and spread its fragrance during this time. In each frame over here you will find our hidden love. Love towards Beauty Love towards Greenery Love towards the roads Love towards the Switzerland like vibe Who can say or believe that this is Gujarat? Looks like a frame or scene from a hindi film. This is how splendid my Gujarat looks especially in Monsoons.The roads of Aahwa are breath-taking and enchanting. In 2020 I wanted to visit Peru, but after visiting Dang, I feel and find my Amazon Forest here itself. By looking at the U Turn Point on the road, seasoned travellers would have guessed that the journey is leading towards Girimal Waterfalls For a second even you might have felt that
this is a spring/waterfall of tea I was fortunate enough to get an opportunity to enjoy monsoon finally Otherwise in 2020 the only place where I experienced or enjoyed monsoon was my terrace.
Every district has one religious place and without visiting this spot the trip is considered incomplete This is that place where Shabri Maa had tasted berries and offered it to Lord Rama Why? Because she wanted to ensure that her favourite Lord Rama doesn’t get bitter or sour berries You might have heard this story about Sweet Berries, right? This place is Shabri Dham Exactly 6 kilometres from here is located Pamapa Sarovar Maatang Rushi’s Ashram is situated here.
He was Shabri Maa’s Guru (Guide) Although its called a Dam, but just look at the force of water. When you will visit Poorna Wildlife anctuary, you will find Traditional Tribal Community Huts inside Mahel Eco Campsite The question will arise whether you can stay in these huts? Yes you can stay at the eco campsite. This campsite has trails, tree house, trekking, adventure activities and a lot more. The best part is the sound of Purna River The rippling sound of water and the serenity surrounding it along with the creativity of Daangi people Whether you are able to comprehend the language of the tribal community or not, but once you look at their Warli paintings, you will surely understand their feelings. At the entrance of Geera Waterfall, you will find Bamboo articles prepared with sheer hard work. If you are a shopaholic, then you will surely love the stunning show pieces. Finally that day came when we ended our tour by visiting Don Hill station, situated 30 kms from Ahwa. Situated exactly between the border of Maharashtra and Gujarat, Don Hill station evokes a feeling of being at an altogether different place during monsoon and winter. A place where you feel like gliding in the lap of nature: Don Hill Station.One thought that struck my mind was thati
