Chincholi Morachi
14 October 2012


An escape from their urban environment, our children enjoyed a unique excursion deep into rural India where they experienced life on the farm and all the simple pleasures that nature and the countryside provide
Geograpy
In the native Marathi language, the name "Chincholi Morachi" signifies tamarind and peacocks, of which this beautiful,
rural region abounds. Located about half way between Pune and Ahmednagar, the region's few small villages and lack of
thoroughfares help preserve it's quiet farming heritage from generation to generation. Open range farmlands of
interlaced crops, pastures, and tamarind groves provide for endless countryside wanderings, and friendly working farms open to
visitors happily share daily life in the most authentic fashion. The nearby geological site of the Nighoj Potholes
provide for an interesting diversion. And in the evening times, dancing peacocks appear in every field to provide a
beautiful finale to each day.
