Priyadarshini Point

The saucer shaped valley of Pachmarhi was discovered by Captain James Forsyth of the Bengal Lancers in 1857.  The British were so taken in by the beauty of the hill station that they developed Pachmarhi as a summer capital. Even today, you will find the region dotted with Victorian churches and bungalows reminiscent of the colonial era. 

The vantage viewing point where Forsyth first sighted and fell in love with the area was named Forsyth Point. Today this has been renamed Priyadarshini Point. The valley with its pleasant weather is a beautiful weekend getaway and well worth a visit.
