Witness the ingenuity of ancient engineering

Located in the heart of Maharashtra, Jalgaon district is a treasure trove of agricultural richness and cultural heritage, making it an enticing destination for any traveller. Among its many attractions, the Swinging Towers of Farkande, or Jhulte Manore, stand out as a mesmerising marvel waiting to be discovered. Situated about 50 kilometres away from Jalgaon, these captivating towers rise majestically on the banks of the Utawadi River.

Standing 15 meters tall, the two towers are linked in a remarkable dance. When one is gently swayed, the other responds with an enchanting sway of its own. With a legacy of over 250 years, these towers are not just relics of yesteryear - they are the ultimate testament to the brilliance of ancient builders.

So what are you waiting for? Grab your camera and your sense of adventure and get ready to experience the whimsical charm of Jhulte Manore.

What lies beyond the towers?

Beyond the towers, you’ll have the chance to explore the local culture of Jalgaon. Take a walk through nearby villages and local markets to experience rural life in Maharashtra. The area around the towers offers a peaceful and authentic look into the traditions and lifestyles of the region. If you have extra time, consider extending your adventure to nearby attractions. Head to Patnadevi, a serene spot known for its natural beauty, or take a day trip to the Gavtala Autramghat Sanctuary for a taste of the region’s wildlife.
