| City Tour Info : Amarkantak Tourist Attraction and Religious Plae in Madhya Pradesh District |
- Amarkantak is spreading over a flattish green valley in the Vindhya ranges.
- It is at a pleasantly cool elevation of 1065 meters.
- Two sacred rivers are born here: the Sone and the Narmada.
- Curiously, Amarkantak has none of the teeming grottiness often associated with popular pilgrim towns.
- It really is more like a green sub- mountain resort with wide-open, well watered, meadows and sunlit sal forests alive with springs and brooks.
- The stream of Sone is fed few hundred meters from its birth, by a number of tributary rills. The Sone becomes the main southern tributary of the Ganges,
- Joining that great river near Patna. Amarkantak, in the green bowl in the old Vindhyas, is the serene epitome of that titanic power.
