Description:
Jabalpur is most known for the marble rocks of Bedaghat, an awesome spectacle of nature. Hardly 20 kms from the city, stand the majestic huge stones forming a valley where the River Narmada silently makes its way through. The rocks rise to about hundred feet height on either sides of the River Narmada. These cliffs made of pure white limestone shine so bright in the sun that they seem to be that of Marble. The colours change according to the fall of Sun rays. It is a splendid sight on the night of full moon. The boat men take the tourists right in the middle of the great gorge to watch the splendid beauty of nature. The River Narmada which meanders peacefully through these rocks takes a deep plunge down giving a magnificent view of the Dhuandhar waterfalls. As the name suggests, the water gushes with a such a force that the name Dhuandhar meaning with big force, has been attached to it. The boatmen extend the journey to a narrow path of the River between two mountains, which is known as Bandarkud. Innumerous monkeys play the jumping game over here.
The scene at Bedaghat, however is an unforgettable experience. The serene calmness of the River Narmada, the soaring marble-white pinnacles, with shadows of them towering over you under the clear blue skies and the placid waters, all create an enchanting experience.
