Bhopal Tours
Bhopal, the City of Lakes, stretches across seven hills in the heart of central India. Once ruled by a succession of formidable Begums who shaped its refined character, this is a city where various religious traditions intertwine seamlessly. Today, Bhopal is an amalgamation of two distinctive worlds. The old city which features grand mosques, havelis, winding alleys and bustling bazaars, and the new city with its tree-lined boulevards, shopping centers and laid-back restaurants. Visit the serene Upper Lake at sunset, when families gather on the promenade to catch the cool breeze, or wander through the Bharat Bhavan to get a glimpse into the city’s vibrant art scene. Marvel at the Taj-ul-Masjid, the largest mosque in India, with its massive domes and ornate minarets, or venture to the nearby Bhimbetka Rock Shelters that contain prehistoric paintings that are over 30,000 years old.
