Thinking of detoxifying your body and mind? The beautiful hill station of Matheran can help you do just that. This small town in the Western Ghats does not allow vehicular traffic. On horseback or in a hand-pulled rickshaw is how you can get around. The town is small and picturesque and, therefore, is best explored on foot. Being at an elevation, Matheran has several vantage points from where you can enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding mountainous landscape. One such place is Echo Point. Another attractive characteristic of this town is the heritage architecture, well-preserved from colonial times. For a slice of local history, visit Holy Cross Church which was built by the British. If you want a few hours amidst nature, head to Charlotte Lake. For suitable accommodations, check out the top resorts in Matheran, India.
