As after completing our higher secondary school ,we  joined D.y patil international University for our bachlors degree in B.jmc.also only 2 weeks of friendship towards our new adventure which was total unplanned as we communicated with our friends on our groups and decided to go for one day trip as we enjoy to explore places. 

There’s something special about unplanned trips. The excitement, the thrill, and the unexpected surprises make them even more memorable. That’s exactly what happened when we decided, almost on a whim, to visit Bhaja Caves in Malavli.  

A Local Train Journey to Remember

We started our journey early in the morning, catching a local train to Malavli. The distance wasn’t long, but the experience was exciting. The train was packed with people—some lost in their thoughts, some chatting happily, and others simply gazing out of the window. The sound of the moving train and the cool morning breeze added to the adventure.

Trekking Instead of Taking an Auto

Once we reached Malavli, we had two options: hire an auto or trek to Bhaja Caves. Being the adventure lovers we are, we chose the latter. The trek was about an hour-long, but the lush green surroundings and fresh air kept us going. The path was uneven, but the thrill of walking through nature made it worthwhile.

The Unexpected Rain & A Quick Purchase of raincoat,Just when we were halfway through, it started raining! We had no umbrellas or raincoats, so we rushed to a nearby stall and bought raincoats. Instead of getting annoyed, we embraced the rain, laughing and enjoying every drop. The sound of raindrops hitting the trees and the cool breeze made the trek even more magical.

Reaching Bhaja Caves – A Breathtaking View

By 10 AM, we finally reached Bhaja Caves. The ancient rock-cut caves were mesmerizing, and the view from the top was breathtaking. The greenery around, the sound of waterfalls nearby, and the historical carvings left us in awe. We clicked countless pictures and took some time to just soak in the beauty of the place.

After exploring, we were starving! Luckily, there were food stalls serving all our favorite snacks—hot corn, Maggi, pakoras, and vada pav. The combination of hot, spicy food and cool weather was just perfect. We laughed, chatted, and enjoyed every bite.
