Another place to visit in Jabalpur is the Old Bazaar area. On the outskirts of the city and en route to the Marble Rocks, one can visit the Madan Mahal. It is a Gond fortress built in 1116 and located on a rocky hill, overlooking the city. The hill, on which this fort is built, provides a panoramic view of Jabalpur city and its environs. The different colored cliffs dotting the gorge offer an impressive sight.
Travelers often visit the gorge at night to see the cliffs under moonlight.
One can see Dhuandhar waterfall near the gorge. It is also famous for wildlife safaris and for bird watching. Though it is much smaller than Kanha, it has a higher density of wild cats. The main bus stand is located near the Indian Coffee House, west of Napier town. Jabalpur railway station is located north of the Civil Lines area.
