Nagpur is also known as “Orange City” of India and is rated as the second greenest city too. There are many tourist places of Nagpur.

Top ten tourist places near Nagpur according to me are:

The significance of this is that legend has that Lord Rama has passed this way during his exile and so we find a number of temples on this hill dedicated to Lord Rama here.

visnor aradhanam param
tasmat parataram devi
tadiyanam samarcanam

Parvati asks Siva: “Of all kinds of worship, whose worship is best?” Siva replies, “The worship and devotional service of Lord Narayana, Visnu, is the highest.” Devi, disappointed, thinks, “But I am serving Siva, so I hold a lower position.” But then Siva, smiling says: “But higher than the worship of Narayana is worship of the devotees of Lord Narayana. That is even greater than devotion to the Lord Himself.”
this verse from the Devahuti-stava in Padma Purana, quoted in HBV 4.358:
