Nagpur & Beyond - Your Guide
The Majestic Manor's prime location puts India's tiger capital, ancient heritage, and vibrant city life all within a short drive. Here is everything worth seeing.
India's Tiger Capital
Tadoba Andhari Tiger Reserve
India's oldest and most accessible tiger reserve sits just 90 km from The Majestic Manor. Tadoba is Vidarbha's crown jewel - a landscape of dry deciduous forests, bamboo thickets, and shimmering lakes where sightings of the Royal Bengal Tiger are among the most reliable in the country.
Beyond tigers, the reserve shelters leopards, sloth bears, Indian bison (gaur), wild dogs, and over 195 species of birds. Morning and evening safari zones vary - book early, especially October through May.

Gorewada Biological Park
India's largest zoological park spans over 1,900 acres surrounding Gorewada Lake. Home to tigers, lions, leopards, bears, and hundreds of bird species in near-natural habitats - an exceptional experience for families and nature lovers.
Birdwatching at Futala & Gorewada
The lake belt surrounding Nagpur - Ambazari, Gorewada, and Futala - is a paradise for birdwatchers. Over 300 resident and migratory species including painted storks, purple herons, and kingfishers have been recorded.
Pench Tiger Reserve
The setting that inspired Rudyard Kipling's Jungle Book, Pench straddles the Maharashtra-Madhya Pradesh border. Dense teak forests shelter tigers, wild dogs, and vast herds of spotted deer. An ideal overnight safari trip from Nagpur.
Tranquil Lakes & Green Spaces
Nagpur's ring of sparkling lakes and botanical parks offer a breath of fresh air just minutes from the city.
Ambazari Lake & Garden
Nagpur's largest lake is surrounded by manicured Ambazari Garden - a favourite for morning walks, evening strolls, and boating. The adjacent botanical garden houses rare plant species and a beautiful butterfly park.
Gorewada Lake
A vast reservoir set within the Gorewada forest range, this serene lake is surrounded by verdant woodland and is a prime birdwatching destination. The forest trails around the lake offer peaceful nature walks away from the city bustle.
Futala Lake - Evening Promenade
A beloved city lake that transforms after dark with colourful musical fountain shows and lakeside food stalls. The promenade buzzes with locals in the evenings - a lively, authentic slice of Nagpur life that visitors love.
Dragon Palace Buddhist Temple
A stunning Japanese-style Buddhist temple complex set amid lush gardens, the Dragon Palace (Ryu-Ko-San Tenryu-Ji) is an architecturally magnificent and spiritually peaceful site - a hidden gem in Nagpur that few tourists find.
Green Belt - Airport Surroundings
The hotel's immediate surroundings are themselves a natural highlight - a pollution-free zone with lush greenery and open skies, offering the rare pleasure of watching aircraft take off and land against a backdrop of forest and open fields.
Orange Orchards - Seasonal Visit
Nagpur's world-famous Nagpur oranges grow in vast orchards on the city's outskirts. During harvest season (November-January), some orchards welcome visitors - a wonderfully fragrant and uniquely Nagpuri experience.
Sacred Landmark of India
Deekshabhoomi
One of India's most revered Buddhist monuments, Deekshabhoomi marks the historic site where Dr B R Ambedkar embraced Buddhism on 14 October 1956, along with nearly 600,000 followers - the largest mass religious conversion in history.
The iconic white stupa - one of the largest in Asia - is an architectural marvel and a deeply moving place of pilgrimage for millions of Buddhists and admirers of Dr Ambedkar worldwide. The complex includes a vast prayer hall, museum, and beautiful gardens.
Sitabuldi Fort
Rising above the heart of Nagpur city, this 19th-century British-era fort was the site of the famous Battle of Sitabaldi (1817). Now under the Indian Army, the fort opens to visitors twice a year - a proud landmark of Nagpur's history.
Ramtek Fort Temple
Perched atop a hill 50 km north of Nagpur, the ancient Ramtek Fort Temple complex is dedicated to Lord Rama and is believed to be the spot where Lord Rama rested during his exile. Stunning views, sacred tanks, and a heritage walk through hilltop temples make this a rewarding day excursion.
Tekdi Ganesh Mandir
Nagpur's most beloved hilltop shrine, the Tekdi Ganesh Mandir draws thousands of devotees daily. The ascent up stepped pathways through trees leads to panoramic views of the city - particularly stunning at sunrise and sunset.
