kanchan athalye | Thursday, September 27, 2012 | Best Blogger Tips


Kojaagiri  Purnima  Special Ladies Tour,2012
  
October 27th,2012 :  Early morning departure from a convenient location or your doorstep. Stop for breakfast at Nagothane,  the gateway to the Alphonso Belt. Proceed to Lord Parshuram Temple, Parashurama  a Brahmin, the sixth avatar of Vishnu, belongs to the Treta yug, and is the son of Jamadagani and Renuka. Parashu means axe, hence his name literally means Rama-with-the-axe. He received an axe after undertaking a terrible penance to please Shiva, from whom he learned the methods of warfare and other skills. He fought the advancing ocean back thus saving the lands of Konkan and Malabar. The coastal area of Kerala state along with the Konkan region, i.e., coastal Maharashtra and Karnataka, is also sometimes called Parashurama Kshetra (Parashurama's country). Parashurama is said to be a "warrior Brahman", the first warrior saint. His mother is descended from the Kshatriya Suryavansham clan that ruled Ayodhya and Lord Rama also belonged to. Lunch and proceed to Derwan, where you can watch the entire life history of King Shivaji through pictures and statues. This memorial is known as ‘Shivsrushti’. Shivsrushti was established by Shree sant Sitarambua Walawalkar Trust. Near about one crore rupees and 15 years were spent in construction of Shivsrushti. Stay at Ganesh Agro Tourism.

October 28th,2012 : Breakfast at 7.30 am.  Proceed towards Mumbai. On route visit Kanakaditya Temple, There are only few temples of God Sun. Hindu philosophers and believers consider Sun as a God. There is an ancient Sun temple at Prabhas Pattan near Veraval in Sourashtra region. One can find some Sun temples in Uttar Pradesh (U.P.). Madhya Pradesh (M.P.), Konark, Orisa and Nepal. Kasheli, a very small village in Rajapur Taluka of Ratnagiri district, is the prime attraction for devotees due to a famous and ancient Temple of Sri. Kanakaditya (Name of Sun God). The Temple is having a bright historical background. The deity of God Aditya (one of the names of God Sun) was brought from Prabhas Pattan Sun temple before 800 years. Prabhas Pattan is Lord Krishna’s place. There are so many legends about the temple. Once one boatman was traveling from Veraval port towards South direction. The deity of Aditya was there in the same boat. When the boat was passing through the Kasheli region, the boat had stopped automatically. The boatman tried a lot to sail the boat into the sea. But he failed to do so. Then he has decided to place the deity of God Aditya at the Kaseli port. He had placed the deity into a black cave (approximately 400 sq. feet). Immediately after this, the boat had got the motion for sailing. A great devotee of God Sun, Kanaka, was living at Kasheli. She got the enlightment from God Sun about the deity. Then she had formally constructed a small temple of Aditya with the help of villagers, hence the temple is known as Kanakaditya. The cave is called as “Devachi Kholi” ( God’s room). Stay at Ganesh Agro Tourism.

October 29th, 2012 : Visit Doothpapeshwar Temple, It is on the bank of Mrudani River. It's an ancient temple. Natural beauty around it is extraordinary. At the both sides of the temple there are huge mountains and a river flows through it making it more beautiful.The Mrudani River jumps from the high mountain so there is a beautiful waterfall near the temple. Some tourists come to see the waterfall. The best period to watch this waterfall is between July to November. Celebrate Kojaagiri Purnima in Jaitapur Backwaters in a boat. Stay at Ganesh Agro Tourism.

October 30th, 2012 : Have Breakfast and proceed towards Mumbai. On route visit Ganpatipule, famous not only because of its blue water and white sand, but for Swayambhu Ganpati Temple (Swayambhu means a self-originated idol, Ganapati). 400 years old Ganpati idol at Ganpatipule is said to have sprung up from the soil. This deity faces the West, so as to guard the western gates, unlike deities in other Indian temples who face the East. The Temple is at the base of a hill, and pilgrims walk around (pradakshina) the hill as a mark of respect.

TOUR WITH CELEBRITIES - (VIJAYDURG, KUNKESHWAR,DEOGAD,NATE)

kanchan athalye | Wednesday, January 18, 2012 | Best Blogger Tips
February 18th,2012: Early morning departure from a convenient location or your doorstep. Stop for breakfast at Nagothane, the gateway to the Alphonso Belt. We meander through the verdant Konkan countryside and stop to enjoy lunch Pethe Parushram village near Chiplun. This is the mythical site where Parushram threw his mighty axe into the churning sea, causing the waters to recede to its current shoreline. In the evening, check in at a hilltop farmhouse at Nate, nestled in 60 acres of Mango Plantation. Stroll around the farm, where your host will explain the varieties of mango and how they are cultivated, sorted, and packed. Early dinner with aamras from the farm.

February 19th,2012: Awake early morning for a traditional breakfast before leaving to Fort Vijaydurg, which literally means "Victory Fort", is a fort built by Shivaji in the Sindhudurg district in Maharashtra. The main purpose of building this fort was to defend the shoreline on the Arabian Sea. This fort is a complex in itself, having a commander's house and three lines of defences. The three fortified walls stand proud and tested by time and the unforgiving sea.
Proceed to Kunkeshwar Temple, an ancient Shiva Temple is located in Kunkeshwar village, 14 Kms from Devgad town. A pristine beach with a very long stretch of seashore and white sand adds to the beauty of temple surroundings. This beautiful temple near beach has alluring architecture with reminiscent of South Indian style of temple architecture. Yadav Kings built this temple in 1100 A. D.

The deity of God Aditya (one of the names of God Sun) was brought from Prabhas Pattan Sun temple before 800 years. Prabhas Pattan is Lord Krishna’s place. There are so many legends about the temple.

KONKAN – A PEARL IN MAHARASHTRA TOURISM

kanchan athalye | Sunday, January 08, 2012 | Best Blogger Tips
Clean sea water, white sandy beaches, golden paddy fields, palm trees, religious sites is what is Konkan all about. Kokan is a coastal strip located in the western half of India. It extends from Dahanu in the north to Goa in the south. The natural beauty of Konkan makes it an emerging tourist destination in India.
Tourists looking for a peaceful refuge should plan a trip to Konkan. The coconut trees, the greenery, the mountains, the waterfalls, the virgin beaches and lush green valleys will certainly offer a pleasant and rich experience for travelers. Sparse population in the area is another reason which makes this place for an ideal laid back destination for travelers around the year.

Well connected road transportation and Konkan railway links has been adding to the tourism value of Konkan. Most tourists prefer to visit the place because of diverse reasons like ease of access due to good roads and the Konkan railway. The close vicinity, economic accommodations and lower costs for traveling to the unexplored places are something that adds a major attraction of a trip to Konkan.

Some areas of Konkan like Dapoli, Devgad and Ratnagiri are popular for Alphonso mangoes and fish exported from the Ratnagiri port. Konkani people are festive and well hearted and they love to celebrate. Celebration and festivity takes place all around the year and found to be deeply rooted in the culture of the people living here. The major festivals celebrated in all over Konkan area include Gudhi Padwa, Diwali, Narali Poornima, Makar Sankranti, Nag Panchami, Ganesh Chaturthi, Dassera and Dassera.

The best time to visit Konkan starts from the month of November to February. This is the period when the temperatures remain a bit milder and humid conditions are found to be at a minimum.

The temperature can reach 40 degree in May and October. Heavy rainfall takes place from June to September.
