Tucked away in Maharashtra’s heartland, the Ruins of Mansar are a forgotten masterpiece of ancient India. Once the glorious capital of the Vakataka King Pravarasena II in the 5th century, Mansar was known as Pravarapura — a city of temples, palaces, and spiritual sanctuaries. Excavations by the Archaeological Survey of India have revealed over 2,700 artefacts, a Buddhist monastery, a box stupa, Hindu sculptures, and the remains of an opulent palace complex. Today, the site tells its story through scattered ruins, majestic stone carvings, and a massive pyramidal brick stupa. Walk through the temple ruins, spot intricate carvings lost to time, and watch the once thriving city 1,600 years ago. It’s surreal. https://www.outlooktraveller.com/experiences/heritage/ruins-of-mansar-ancient-hidden-gem-in-maharashtra

@ashikaseem beautifully captures the serene Loktak Lake, a true lifeline for the locals of Manipur. From its iconic floating islands known as phumdis to the breathtaking landscapes that stretch as far as the eye can see, this freshwater lake offers a unique escape. What makes Loktak even more interesting is how fishermen call these floating islands home. They’ve turned phumdis into fishing coves that help them navigate on narrow boats. A true hidden gem, Loktak is home to Keibul Lamjao National Park, the world’s only floating national park, where the elusive and endangered Sangai deer finds its refuge. With only a few left in the wild, catching a glimpse of one here is a rare and unforgettable experience. 📍Loktak Lake, Manipur https://www.outlooktraveller.com/experiences/adventure/heres-the-ultimate-travel-guide-to-loktak-lake
