Harishchandragad is an ancient fort. Harishchandragad trek has many temples, Pushkarni and caves on the top. They all represent different cultures starting from the 6th century. The various constructions on the fort and those in the surrounding region indicate the existence of diverse cultures. Saptatheertha Pushkarni, Kedareshwar cave, Harishchandra temple and other caves are the examples for that.
Konkan Kada overlooks the Konkan region hence the name. Kada means cliff in Marathi. It is a standing tall natural wall that has a concave structure. Because of this structure, you can experience many natural phenomena such as vertical cloud bursts, circular rainbows also called a Brocken spectre. The clouds nearing the cliff get sucked into the pitfall area below and thrown vertically into the sky. This creates the impression of the vertical cloud burst.
Harishchandreshwar Temple is a glorious example of the fine art of carving sculptures out of stones that prevailed in ancient India. This temple has been carved out of a single huge rock.
Kedareshwar cave have a big Shiva Linga surrounded by cold water stable only on one stambha out of four .
