Are bhai, weekend aa raha hai aur dil kar raha hai ki thoda Indore se bahar nikle? Samjh sakte hain yaar! Rozana ka traffic, 56 Dukaan ki bheed, aur garmi mein Sarafa ka chakkar… kabhi kabhi toh lagta hai ki bas ek chhoti si break chahiye. Agar aap bhi IndorFeed pe scroll karte karte yeh soch rahe ho ki “weekend pe kahaan ghoom aaye,” toh ye article aapke liye hi likha hai boss! Indore se itni saari jagah nazdeek hain jahan aap Saturday subah niklo aur Sunday shaam tak waapas aa jao, poore refresh hokar.
Mandu: History Lovers Ka Swarg
Distance: 95 km (almost 2 ghante)
Arre wah bhai wah! Agar aapko thoda history shauk hai ya phir Instagram pe architectural photos upload karne ka mann hai, toh Mandu is the place to be. Jahaz Mahal paani ke beech mein bana hua hai, bilkul ek jahaz jaisa lagta hai. Rani Roopmati Pavilion pe sunset ke time jaoge toh dil garden garden ho jayega. Hindola Mahal ka architecture dekh ke toh engineers bhi heran ho jaate hain. Subah jaldi niklo Indore se, kyunki dhoop mein ghoomna thoda tough ho sakta hai.
Maheshwar: Ghats Aur Shanti Ka Sangam
Distance: 91 km (2 ghante ka safar)
Maheshwar bilkul wahi feeling deta hai jo Varanasi deta hai, but without the chaos. Narmada ke kinare basa yeh kasba bohot hi peaceful hai. Ahilya Ghat pe subah ki aarti dekhni ho toh yahan aana. Maheshwar Fort ke andar museum bhi hai, aur yahaan ke handloom sarees bohot famous hain. Narmada mein boat ride karo sunset ke time, ekdum filmy scene ban jayega. Rajwada ya Lalbagh se toh definitely better vibe hai yahan!
Omkareshwar: Spiritual Recharge Chahiye?
Distance: 77 km (almost dhai ghante)
Agar aapki soul ko thoda recharge chahiye, toh Omkareshwar se better option nahi hai. Yeh ek Jyotirlinga hai aur Narmada island pe basa hua hai. Temple darshan ke liye subah jaldi jao, kam bheed hogi. Parikrama kar sakte ho poora island, though thodi stamina lagti hai. Mamleshwar Temple bhi Narmada ke doosre kinare pe hai, zaroor jaana.
Ujjain: Mahakal Ki Nagri
Distance: 55 km (sirf 1 ghante)
Are bhai, Ujjain toh Indore se itna paas hai ki logo ka regular jaana ho jaata hai! Mahakal ki bhasma aarti ke liye registration online karna padta hai, pehle se kar lena. Ram Ghat pe shaam ko Shipra Aarti dekhna, bohot divine feeling aati hai. Kal Bhairav Temple mein prasad mein daaru chadhaate hain, unique hai kaafi. Street food try karna, bade bade samose milte hain Ujjain mein.
Pachmarhi: MP Ka Switzerland
Distance: 210 km (almost 4-5 ghante)
Thoda door hai yaar, but ek proper weekend getaway ke liye perfect hai. Pachmarhi ko “Satpura ki Rani” kehte hain. Bee Falls, Pandav Caves, Dhoopgarh sunset point, aur Jatashankar Cave… sab dekhne layak hai. Do raat ka plan banao yahaan ke liye. MP Tourism ke hotels ache hain aur budget friendly bhi. Gajak aur honey yahaan famous hai, waapsi mein le ke aana.
Patalpani Waterfall: Monsoon Special
Distance: 35 km (bas 45 minutes)
Bhai sahab, agar barish ka mausam hai aur weekend free hai, toh Patalpani jaana banta hai! Mhow road pe hi hai, aur yahaan ka waterfall monsoon mein full flow mein hota hai. Trekking karna padta hai thoda sa, aur waterfall ke neeche nahane ka maza alag hi hai. Barish mein jaoge toh poora bheeg jaoge, spare kapde zaroor le jaana. Slippery hota hai, sambhal ke boss!
Choral Dam: Picnic Wala Vibes
Distance: 45 km (1 ghante se kam)
Sunday ko agar family ke saath easy sa plan chahiye, toh Choral Dam best hai. Boating available hai, tents laga ke picnic kar sakte ho. Photography aur bird watching ke liye accha spot hai. Ghar se khaana pack kar ke le jaao. Poha, jalebi, samosa… jo bhi man kare le jaao aur yahaan baith ke maze karo.
Quick Packing Tips (Indori Style)
Weekend trip ke liye kya rakhna hai bag mein? Paani ki bottle zaroor, comfortable shoes, sunscreen aur cap (Malwa ki dhoop toh pata hi hai), power bank, first aid kit, extra clothes, aur snacks. Ghar ka banaya hua poha ya paratha le jaao, Ratlami sev perfect rahegi, aur haan… glucose biscuits bhi rakh lena!
Conclusion: Toh Kab Nikal Rahe Ho?
Toh bhai log, ab aapko pata chal gaya na ki Indore ke aas paas kitni mast jagah hain weekend ghoomne ke liye! Chappan se Sarafa tak ka chakkar toh roz hi lag jaata hai, ab thoda bahar bhi niklo. Whether you’re a history buff, spiritual soul, ya adventure lover, har kisi ke liye kuch na kuch hai. Bas gaadi mein petrol bharwao, playlist ready karo, aur nikal pado. Aur haan, jab waapas aao toh humein bhi batana kaisa laga! Happy traveling, Indore walo!
