Chenoy Point in Matheran

Friday, March 22, 2013

Once again there is no signpost here to indicate that this is a point. If it weren’t for the horseman, no one would have any idea about this point at all.

There is a small podium made of stones where the British used to sit and enjoy the view of the countryside. Today the forest cover has grown so extensively, and that’s a good thing, but it doesn’t let you see the place at all.

Rustomjee Point in Matheran

Friday, March 15, 2013

Again there is no signpost or boundary here to indicate that this is a point.

The horseman told us that Rustomjee, whoever he was, used to sit here and read books and that he lived very close to this place.

In the evening it offers a beautiful view of the sunset, but not as beautiful as the one at Sunset Point.

The forest towering above this point makes it difficult to see the valleys below.

Coronation Point in Matheran

Coronation Point offers a view of Louisa Point.

There is no signpost here to indicate that it is a point. Nor is the view it provides very appealing, owing to the thick forest cover.
