Around 20th December 2019 i was browsing through places for my year end vacation. i already decided to spent 4-5 days in home town with full on food and games on my mind . it was quite sibling time for me in year when i spend time with my sister brother and whole family.
After checking all Kumbhalgarh properties as well as Mount Abu which were quite over booked on year end as well as full of people with drinks and all was about to drop idea of going out. In a moment i thought my sister , brother has not visited pavapuri and i am very much fond of this place. It will be quite good family gateway so i just did a wApp in the family group and got heads up immediately from all that everyone is in for this plan.
Pavapuri is around 156 Km from Udaipur and located in Sirohi District, They have AC/NonAC/V VIP Rooms which can be booked over call , wApp, email or inperson [5 Person can stay in one room Adult or kid ]. i already had visited the place multiple times so was well aware . Decided to go for a descent family trip so booked 3 V VIP Rooms which costs 1500+ GST [Total 1680] Per room per night .

One day prior to trip we came back from home town to udaipur , had dosa [bhabhi's Speciality] at home and got settled for early morning travel. Though we decided to start very early but with all kids we managed to left home at 8:50 AM , As for Foodie family day can not start with dry road trip so we directly landed to Rajwada Snacks and Sweets in Udaipur itself . Had Samosa, Kachori,Khaandvi and Garma Garam Jalebi to start of the day .
Around 9:30 we left from udaipur and marched towards Pavapuri via NH-27 [Udaipur AbuRoad National Highway], After Pindwara there is a U Turn on National highway which takes you to state highway toward sirohi ,Many times when you are driving at good speed on national highway you may forget to take the turn unless you have Maps on , Maps are quite exact and you will not have any issue in finding your way.
Around 11:30 we reached BamanVaar Ji - Also a Jain Teerth , Beautiful temple , you will feel mental peace here . If some one leaves on time from Udaipur you may get breakfast here which is simple and homely - like upma Moong puri khakra .They have built miniature of Samed Shikhar ji also on adjacent hill where you can go if you have arrived on time, as the main thing visiting jain temples is you will get food in specific time durations and if you take more time in baman vaar ji you miss the sumptuous food in Pavapuri which is around 40 Km from baman waar ji .

We reached pavapuri at 12:40 and directly went to the registration office where confirmed the booking and took the receipt ,As the Food timing was about to close so directly rushed to "Bhojnalaya" [Food 85 per person , Breakfast 75 rs per person ] , Once you enter that hall you see well managed food catering by in house management where all people serving you have traditional wear and they serve in queue and properly to avoid wastage of food. Food is pretty basic but what makes it different is most of the raw material is from in and around premises, like Ghee etc. For example we had Ghevar as dessert in lunch and it was super awesome becuase it was made of pure cow Ghee .
"Bheru Tarak Temple and Garden around it "
As per the existing itinerary after taking an hour rest we moved to Bheru Tarak which is also a jain temple just behind the Mount Abu , There is a trekking route from Bheru tarak to Munt Abu of 5 Kms .Kids Enjoyed the swings and rides there in the garden after which we left for Jeeravla Parshwanath.
Jeeravla Parshwanath Has 108 Parshwanath Bhagwan in the temple , in last two three years this temple has been renovated drastically like a fort , fully built with jaisalmer stone it is no less then a fort when you see around.
