CHIKHALDARA is a hill sation of vidharbha in amravati district,It was discovered in the year 1823 by Captain Robinson of Hyderabad regiment.It is located at an altitude of 1100m above sea level .it is very much good as compared to other hill stations like mahabaleeshwar, matheran i mean it less crowdy than those ones. I have posted some snapsof it.A mythological story is concerned with the CHIKHALDARA regarding MAHABHARAT. Acording to this mythological story, this is the place where BHIMA killed the the daitya KICHAKA & thats why the name -KICHAKDARA , which became CHIKHALDARA by the time. Also one can prove this MAHABHARAT connection correct by giving one proof. when BHIMA killed KICHAKA at that time PANDAWAS where living in the empire of KING VIRATA. interestingly the name of a village near CHIKHADARA is VAIRAT.Also there is point in CHIKHADARA called BHIMA KUNDA. Main tourist attractions here are Bhimkunda,sunset & sunrise point,Hariken pint, mozri point,shakkar lake,Panchbol point. also other attractions are Gavilgad fort.
