Package holiday to Nagpur

Nagpur is located in the exact geographical center of India and is the third-largest city in the state of Maharashtra. The city is affectionately known as Orange City, as the region is one of the largest orange-growing areas in Asia. Nagpur is also a significant center of Buddhism in India — here, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar converted to Buddhism in 1956 with over 600,000 followers, a historic event that still shapes the city today.

The Deekshabhoomi is the largest stupa in Asia and the site where the mass conversion took place. The impressive white dome structure welcomes millions of Buddhist pilgrims each year, especially in October during the Dhammachakra Pravartan Din ceremony.

The Sitabuldi Fort, built on a double hill in the city center, was the site of the Battle of Sitabuldi in 1817 between the British and the Marathas. Today, the fort is a military area but is open to visitors on Republic Day and Independence Day.

The tiger reserves around Nagpur make the city the gateway to India’s tiger capital: The Tadoba-Andhari National Park (140 km), the Pench National Park (90 km), and the Navegaon-Nagzira Tiger Corridor offer the best chances in the world to observe wild Bengal tigers in their natural habitat.

Futala Lake and Ambazari Lake are popular recreational areas, illuminated in the evenings and lined with promenades. The Maharaj Bagh Zoo in the heart of the city houses rare Indian animal species.

Nagpur particularly impresses with breathtaking nature, excellent cuisine. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
