				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear All,</p>
<p>We @ <strong>SHIKHAR VEDH</strong>, invite you for a weekend trip to <strong>Mandavgad (Mandu</strong>) the fortress of joy and a glorious city of <strong>Maheshwar</strong> situated on the banks of Narmada, <strong>Shrimant Bajirao Peshwa Samadhi @ Raverkhedi</strong> And <strong>Mahakal Jyotirling @ Ujjain</strong></p>
<p><strong>About the places -</strong><br />
<strong><br />
</strong><strong>Mandu</strong>, the fortress of joy, also known as <strong>Mandavgadh</strong>, rises 634 meters high in the Vindhya Range and is enclosed in battlements 37 km long. With-in this well-defended plateau is wealth of palaces, pleasure pavilions, mansions, tombs and mosques.</p>
<p>The hill range is endowed with a very attractive natural scenery, which is at its best during the rainy season, when on all sides, it is clothed in green with a number of brooks and torrents, rushing down into the ravine winding about its sides below. The beauty of which is further enhanced by about a dozen lakes and ponds interspersed on its top.</p>
<p>Each of Mandu’s structures is an architectural gem and the monuments were raised in the period of hardly 125 years, between 1401 A.D to 1526 A.D; some are out standing like massive Massive Jami Massjid and Hoshang Shah’s tomb, which provided inspiration for the master builders of the Magnificent Taj Mahal centuries later.</p>
<p><strong>Maheshwar</strong> was a glorious city at the dawn of Indian civilization when it was &#8216;Mahishmati'; capital of king Kartivarjun. This temple town on the banks of the river Narmada finds mention in the epics of Ramayana and Mahabharata. Revived to its ancient position of importance by the Holkar queen Rani Ahilyabai of Indore.

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Dear All</p>
<p>Join us for a Spiritual backpacking trip :- </p>
<p>Destinations Covered : <strong> Kedarnath &#8211; Tungnath  &#8211; Rudraprayag &#8211; Badrinath &#8211; Mana &#8211; Haridwar </strong><br />
Tour Duration : <strong><em>(07 Nights / 08 Days)</em></strong></p>
<p><strong>Introduction:</strong><br />
<strong>Kedarnath</strong> has been a pilgrimage centre since ancient times. It is not certain who constructed the original Kedarnath temple and when. A mythological account ascribes the temple&#8217;s construction to the legendary Pandava brothers mentioned in the Mahabharata. However, the Mahabharata does not mention any place called Kedarnath. One of the earliest references to Kedarnath occurs in the Skanda Purana (c. 7th-8th century), which names Kedara (Kedarnath) as the place where Shiva released the holy waters of Ganga from his matted hair, resulting in the formation of the Ganges river.</p>

<p>In 1599, Mughals defeated Nizam Shahi of Ahmednagar. Though Emperor Akbar appointed his officers to look after the kingdom of the Deccan, the Nizam Shah’s officers refused to receive orders from them. They had lost their independence. They declared Murtaza, the son of Shah Ali king and made Paranda Fort, about 75 miles south east of Ahmednagar capital. The site passed several times between them and the Adil Shahis and remained with him for two to three years and was captured by the Adil Shah in 1630. In 1657 it was again captured by the Moghuls and eventually came into the hands of the Nizams of Hyderabad.</p>
