Silvassa Experience: Dudhani a place 30 kms away from Silvassa & about 110 kms from Mumbai is an ideal spot for spending your weekend amidst nature and greenery. Located at the far end of D,N &H , a union territory,the place is located on the river bank with baoting facility,cool climate and good accomodation available at nearby locations that is economical and satisfying.
Food, sight-seeing and shopping: There is a Lion safari at about 24 kms distance from Dudhani where one gets to see a pair of lion & lioness relaxing and sun bathing from as near as 100 ft.from a secured vehicle. The entry fees is nominal [ 20 bucks for adults & 10 bucks for kids ] Drive down further to Bhilad and you can visit the museum that displays adivasi culture,their life style,weapons etc.
Activities & things to do: Lazy around, morning work in the jungle, paddle boating with family members, bisiting garden, visting deer park , evening shopping , well that's more than one can handle for a couple of day's break.
Travel tips, How to reach, travel warnings etc: You have to have your own vehicle for travelling since the places are far off from each other and the local transportation is very limited. One can also reach to Bhilai by train and then hire a taxi or a private car from there to go the above mentioned places.
However, travelling by Mumbai Ahmadabad highway is a gret experience since road conditions are extremely good and the climate these days is very pleasant. If one starts by early morning say 7.00 am, he can reach Silvassa in less than 3 hrs. drive time.
