Towards Lavasa!!

Lavasa is a man-made city. The theme was based on the Italian city "Venice". It was supposed to be India's first privately built smart city. Although the plan didn't work out and the city has been under controversy for years now, but the beauty is worth your time and money.

If you plan to visit Lavasa, the best way I would suggest is going by two-wheeler. The entire hill city is surrounded by ghats, terrains and it gets even prettier during monsoons. It is situated on the Mutha river and constructed in Mulshi Valley.
