Khargon

Khargon, Jan 2, 2012.

90 km

The Google Maps advisor suggested I take a rather long detour North of The Narmada to get to Khargon. I ignored that and cycled on smaller roads that homed in more directly. This proved to be a good choice. The road was fine and I passed through several nice villages. The landscape was rather flat and mostly agricultural.

Once I entered Khargon I asked a cop if there were any hotels nearby. He pointed me down a street, and there I soon found a small place. I got a rather dingy room for 250 Rs and moved in. Later when I took a walk around the block I saw several other hotels that looked far better. One that comes to mind was called The President. It did not look overly expensive and if I ever were to come back to Khargon I think I would check that one out.

Almost next door to were I stayed is a modern looking restaurant called Lazzez or something similar. There I had a fine dinner.

Khargon is not much to have frankly. But it is OK for an overnight stay when in need.
