A widely known adage states: "We often fail to notice things that are close to our place". It's a harsh truth that when you become too familiar with something, you can become complacent. Regrettably, despite residing in Maharashtra, I have not paid sufficient heed to the Pench Tiger Reserve. Moreover, the idea of getting INTO THE WILD will allow me to witness the infrastructural growth of Nagpur that I have heard of; the way it has transformed its transportation solutions is among the best in the world. Then there is Pench Tiger Reserve, which adds adventurous character to the charming city of Oranges, offering an unparalleled experience. The Hyundai Grand i10 Nios is undoubtedly the best car one can ask for. The value quotient of this vehicle has won the hearts of many, making it a great option for daily commutes and leisurely trips such as ours.
India, as well as Maharashtra, acknowledges the importance of Nagpur city because of its distinctive characteristics. This city is commonly referred to as the "Orange City" because it serves as a significant trade hub for locally grown oranges. The winter capital of Maharashtra - Nagpur, has a significant geographical advantage as it is located at the exact centre of India, marked by the "Zero Mile Marker". I would be taking Grand i10 Nios to explore the city's infrastructure, its culture and, at last, the famous Pench Tiger Reserve.
