Legacy of Matheran
Matheran, meaning ‘forest on the forehead,’ is one of the smallest hill stations in India, yet it holds immense historical and cultural significance. Discovered in 1850 by Hugh Poyntz Malet, it served as a summer retreat during British rule. Its preservation as an eco-sensitive zone has maintained its untouched beauty, with no motor vehicles allowed, ensuring a serene and pollution-free environment.
Matheran’s toy train, a UNESCO-listed heritage attraction, adds a vintage charm to this picturesque hill station. With its rich biodiversity, scenic viewpoints, and colonial-era architecture, Matheran continues to captivate visitors and nature lovers alike.
