We woke up early morning to witness the beautiful sunrise at the canyon of Penna river. We took tonnes of pictures and even walked and climbed up some rocks to take the pictures with the entire view of the canyon.

We had covered all the nearby places and it was time to leave this beautiful place. We left for the station to catch our train back to Mumbai

Our train was delayed by 1 hour. So we boarded the train by 12:30 and reached mumbai next day at 3:30. It was an amazing trip as we really got to see some unique places that existed in India
