Just 40 km from Kota city there is a Gigantic cliff which came to limelight after the TV commercial shown on Rajasthan tourist sites in early 2016.
So as I was in Bundi to collect the images of Raniji ki baori stepwell & other sites as well, it would be a bad decision, not to visit the entry point of Chambal Ghati or as locals call this site, Garadia Mahadev temple. (There is a Shiva Temple here)
How I reached here
I was in Kota and had booked a three day cab from a local vendor. So our driver took the long route from Bundi-Kota highway which added 4-5 km extra as the road from the western side of the city was in pretty bad condition.
So took a left turn from Kota-Bundi Highway (quite a good one) and drove straight to the T point. Then turn right and a few km ahead turned left towards from the only cut we saw. The road to Garadia from national highway is very isolated, so I won’t suggest reaching the site in late hours.
And in an hour we reached this wonder of mother nature. 500 feet beautiful cliff where Chambal river takes a U-turn and offers this mesmerising views which can hypnotise any nature lover.
Beautiful Jatin!
Loved your blog, you write so well. I guess your panoramic shot of Garadia Mahadev is beautiful. I too wanted to take a panoramic shot but rains ruined it all. I had to retreat because it started raining and there’s no cover.
Thanks arv. Well you can always visit Kota again for the perfect shot… :)
Its a great job Jatin! Hope your efforts will surely place these beautiful places around kota and Boondi onto world tourism map!
I have recently shifted to Kota and interested to know more about all such least known places.

Such a wonderful place and I haven’t been able to go there.
