Overview

Maharashtra, the land of Maratha grandeur, is a vast dynamic state where financial powerhouses sit alongside ancient rock-cut marvels and mist-shrouded hill stations. At its edge sits Mumbai, a fast-paced metropolis famous for Victorian architecture and colonial monuments like the Gateway of India. Travel inland to unlock the magnificent UNESCO World Heritage Ajanta and Ellora Caves, cut entirely by hand out of mountain basalt. From the green valleys of Mahabaleshwar to the astronomical enigma of Lonar Crater Lake, Maharashtra offers an epic saga of history, wilderness, and urban energy.
