Bhandavgarh
Again in the morning we went to the national park but was not able to see. This place is warmer than Kanha and the flora and fauna is a little different.
Tribal Art- this is a beautiful shop in the nearby market owned by an old lady you can buy souvenirs from here.
Pre lunch we drove back towards Uttar Pradesh.

PS- keep few eatables with you on the journey because you will not find good eating places or any eating places.
From varanasi to jabalpur you can stop at mithaas restaurant located in Maihar. Vegeterian food and good food.
MP roads are really good. But while coming back from Bhandavgarh avoid the shortcut that your gps shows because the road is not good.

For any other info post in the comment. If you like the post keep comenting.
Jabalpur-Panchmarhi
In the morning we started from Jabalpur towards Panchmarhi via Narsinghpur on Jabalpur-Nagpur road. The road was very good with a few bumps here and there. The Only problem was the railway crossings.
So finally in the evening we reached Panchmarhi. The weather is nice but don't expect a Himachal hill station type of thing because the geography is totally different.
And as they say Satpura has its own charm. So basically we are staying in the middle of satpura range. In the night this place is especially calm and the silence soothes your mind and brings peace.
Kanha National Park
This place needs no description. From Panchmari we reached Kanha in the night. The place is good but it is like all the other MP places where you can find fine to nice accommodation and ok to good food. I woke up at 5am in the morning to visit the national park and spot the tiger but unfortunately i found all the other animals but not the tiger. And yes it takes a lot of patience. In the evening we departed for Amarkantak.
Panchmarhi Sightseeing
In the morning we started with Pandav Caves. This cave has no relation with the Pandavas but with buddhist monks. They lived there. Only one cave can be seen rest are closed. Before the cave there is a beautiful garden which is good for walking. Panchmari get its name from this cave.
Bee Fall- it is a waterfall in the satpura range surrounded by green trees. Its a beautiful waterfall but the trek is really tiring. Climbing up that 1km trek is really hard. But the water gives your body a natural massage as the locals say. The part i liked the most was sitting in a small waterfall on way to Bee Fall and getting Fish Spa in free. There is a small waterfall on the way to bee fall where people can sit. The small fishes eats away all the dead skin in your feet if you put your leg in water. It feels a little ticklish. But was ab awesome experience.
Reech Cave- it is an empty cave. But if you like history than you will like it.
Panchmari Lake- donot expect nainital type of thing but it is a nice lake.
