Table Land

Table Land is Asia’s second longest mountain Plateau, the area just looks like someone has cut off the land with a blade. Guess what? Many Bollywood movies have been shot here; Taare Zameen par and Agent Vinod are some to mention. The Table land offers breathtaking views of  Rajpuri caves and Devil's kitchen. The place is stormed by horse jockeys you can ride one or just walk; as per your convenience. 


Travel Tip: Make sure you wear a Raincoat during Monsoon season because the Horizontal Rains and strong wind will easily deform your umbrella.
