Mount Malcolm:
It used to be the most famous building in the olden days. it was built in 1829 with magnificient
architectural skills. Unfortunately, it has lost a lot of its old charm now.
Catholic Church:
A visit to the old Raman Catholic Holy cross church is worth a detour. although the church is
practically falling apart, its stained-glass windows are still a sight to behold. this deserted
church is now looked after by a Hindu family.
Mahabaleshwar Club:
The club was built in 1881 and is still flourishing
and well-maintained. Only members of the club
can stay here. It is very popular for its well-tended roses and lovely jogging track. Christmas
is grandly celebrated by loyal members every year. Fortunately, one facility is open to visitors;
who can use the golf course whenever they feel like it.
Morarji Castle:
Also worth a look is this old structure. Mahatma Gandhi once lived here in 1945.
Pratapgad Fort:
This is 24 Kms, away from Mahabaleshwar. The fort was built in 166 by Moropant trimbak Pingle under the command of
the Maratha rular Shivaji. It was here that the mighty General of Bijapur, Afjal Khan, was killed by
Shivaji.
The fort has a great view.
