Nashik is a dream city in India to explore in 3 days.
From Vineyards to Riverfront to explore, and spicy Misal to sugarcane juice, Nashik offers a complete experience for families and backpackers alike.
I have visited Nashik dozens of times since 1989.
Recently I was here for a [meetup of local guides]
The Vineyards and wineries are the top attractions
Spend a day at the famous Nipha Vineyard.
Where to Stay
There are plenty of options to stay in Nashik and my favorite is the budget-friendly Hotel Vaishali.
Explore the little-known monuments
The closest little monument at walking distance from the hotel is the Clock Tower.
Feel the vibes of the Riverfront
The next destination could be the Godavari Ghat Riverfront with its Lord Hanuman Temple.
Watch out for little and big surprises on the sidewalks
As you explore the city by walking, in your car, or riding a bike, little surprises like the Ashik Stambh and manikins outside tea shops will keep you entertained.
Do not miss the famous Nashik Misal Pav
For food, you can break at any of the famous Misal Shops, my favorite being the Sham Sundar Misal - Taste that lingers.
Returning from Nashik, you will be greeted with countless Misal joints, like the Sarpanch Misal on the Pune Highway
More craving for your taste-buds
Another delicacy not to be missed when in Nashik is the Pav Vada.
End the day with desserts
For desserts, one can head to the iconic Dairy Don for fresh flavors of ice cream and fruit juices.
Treat yourself to the freshly Sugarcane Juice
If is mid-day and you feel it is getting warm, take shelter in any of the Rasvanti Gruha Sugarcane vendors.
Whether you are on leisure travel or attending a local guides meetup, Nashik provides an all-round experience from comfort stay to exciting places to visit and food to try.
