	Monsoon Ideas
	A rather small hill-retreat, Matheran’s claim to fame is that it is one of the cleanest locations, with a conspicuous absence of any vehicle! It is a small and picturesque retreat situated in the Sahayadris, founded by Sir Hugh Mallet, Collector of Thane in the late 19th century. Since no vehicles are permitted here, tourists are required to travel on foot or a pony. While Matheran is an anytime visit destination, a trip during the monsoons is surely rewarding. As the showers begin, the majestic Sahyadris turn lush green and get filled with gushing waterfalls. The Charlotte Lake is especially brilliant, since it offers a view of the mist rising over the expanse of water. Watch the mist on the hills and feel the cool air refresh your soul.


	Things to see & do
	The Mall Road: The main focus of Matheran’s activities is the Mall Road that stretches from one end to the other. It has hotels, restaurants and bazaars lining on both sides. The main market in this area offers several items for purchase including leather and cane articles and food stuff. You can also hire ponies for your sightseeing from this point. Vantage Points: : Matheran’s hills offer some of the most stunning views of the landscape. The Panorama Point is located 6 kms from the market and is believed to be the longest point in Matheran and is a popular spot for picnics. It is from here that the mountain ranges of Khandala Bhimashankar are visible. The Heart Point offers a view of Mumbai at night. The Echo Point derives its name from the acoustic echo it provides. Louisa Point is another popular point in Matheran with its beautiful waterfalls. Monkey Point owes its name to the profusion of monkeys that are constantly up to their antics. Sunset Point offers views of Prabalgad, one of the forts of Chattrapati Shivaji’s Fort. Lakes: Located about 2 kms from the Post Office, Charlotte Lake offers some of the most amazing scenery. It is flanked by the Pisarnath Temple on the left, and the Echo Point and Louisa Point on the right. This lake is also the source of the city’s drinking water.


	Gourmet Treats
	For a location that’s much visited, food places are available in plenty. What we recommend is try out some of the local cuisines of Maharashtra. Most of the hotels have their own restaurants and coffee shops that serve homely food. Don’t forget to try the all-time favourite chikki, which is a sweet made of groundnut, jaggery and cashewnuts.


	Shopping Fiesta
	The Mall Road is the most popular of shopping areas and offers several items for purchase. Matheran is most known for its leather and cane articles, straw hats and sweets.
