TRAVEL THE WORLD - MAHESHWAR, INDIA



Maheshwar, located on the Narmada River in Madhya Pradesh, is not on the itinerary of very many tourists as there is no rail service. It took twelve hours with a car and driver to reach our destination from Indore. The roads were very rough, but were being improved - a good thing, as Maheshwar and the surrounding area are well worth a visit. Within the Holkar dynasty fort there are several temples with wonderful stone carvings dating from the 17th Century. These photos, taken in 2007, give two examples.
