NASHIK CITY IN PICTURES - DAY TIME


Photo Travelogue :
Read first part - Here!

I have passed by Nashik all though my college years, when I used to shuttle between Bombay and Guwahati in the Dadar Express. But, except for buying vada pavs or other eatables at the station, where my train used to halt ( both up and down journey ); I never really got the chance to visit the city itself. It lies merely three hours from Bombay, so, when the Sinhastha Mahakumbh'15 was going on, I found the perfect opportunity to go to Nashik, atlast. Its a big city, and here are some glimpses of the city as I saw it. I'm sure there's more to it though... Enjoy the pics :-)

Nashik or Nasik is an ancient holy city in Maharashtra, a state in western India. It’s known for its links to the “Ramayana” epic poem. On the Godavari River is Panchavati, a temple complex. Nearby, Lord Rama was thought to have bathed at Ram Kund water tank, today attended by Hindu devotees.
