Maluti is a small town near Shikaripara in Dumka District of Jharkhand. In this town 72 ancient temples called the Maluti Temples. According to the local legend the king of Nankar state constructed 108 temples in incipient stage, but the later generation could not maintain such huge number of monuments and most of them were left uncared for. With the passing of time as many as 36 monuments dilapidated and finally grounded. Only 72 out of the lot survive now.

HolidayIQ Traveller Govindan Naganathan says, "A few kilometres from Gorur Dam on the way to Hassan at Shettihalli is Rosary Church built by French missionaries in 1860. The village of Shettihalli were relocated when Gorur dam was constructed and the church was submerged. The church is visible only when the water level in Hemavathy reservoir is low. We could see a few feet of church above water since the water level was low. The surrounding is very scenic and peaceful."

HolidayIQ Traveller Sumit Shetty shares, "Journey up the fort is usually a choice between taking the long flight of stairs or the much easier option of rope-way. Raigad was one of the capital forts in Shivaji Maharaj's time and does give you that particular feel. The marketplace, Maharaj's Samadhi, Takmak Tok are all places to visit and can be enjoyed"
