म्हणजे पावसाळ्यानंतर सजणाऱ्या पिवळ्या फुलांनी भरलेली जणू जेजुरी..
आणि गडावरून दिसणारा नयनरम्य व सुंदर असा भंडारदरा चे जलप्रवण क्षेत्र..
तसेच गडाच्या सर्वात उंच ठिकाणी प्राकृतिक रित्या बनलेले आणि आगळेवेगळे असलेले रतनगड चे ‘#नेढे’…

आणि रतनवाडी च्या दिशेने उतरल्यावर गावात सर्वात आधी दिसणारे १२०० वर्ष जुने पुरातन शंकराचे #अमृतेश्वर_मंदिर…
तसेच गडावर असणारे अजूनही स्वच्छ पाण्याने भरलेले पाण्याचे टाके, बुरुज, कडा, राणी का हुडा, गणेश दरवाजा, गुहा, गडांच्या दरवाजावर असणारे गणपती, हनुमान यांसारखे देवी देवतांचे अत्यंत सुबक कोरीव मुर्त्या या अजूनही रतनगड च्या जिवंत इतिहासाची ग्वाही देतात…
