| Introduction |
Chandan and Vandan are the two duel offbeat forts situated in Satara district. Almost everyone who travels from Pune to Satara or to Mahabaleshwar observes these forts but most of the time it is ignored and rarely visited.
These forts are situated in comparatively rain shadow area and hence best season to visit these forts is the monsoon. So those who are interested in visiting and exploring unusual offbeat forts shouldn't miss this chance. |
