Every year after the monsoon season, wild flowers decorate the plateau of Kokankada giving it an unique view. It is a dream destination for avid botanists, photographers and all those who appreciate nature.
Harishchandragad is the most scenic location of Maharashtra. The major attraction here is KokanKada cliff which is not just vertical, it is an overhang like a cobra's hood. It’s beyond description and one must see it to experience nature's architecture.
