Monsoon on the Narmada

A Madhya Pradesh Tourism Board campaign. Every check-in along the Narmada corridor scores double for the duration, from the source at Amarkantak to the ghats at Maheshwar. Monsoon is when this river is at its most spectacular and its least visited — which is the whole reason the multiplier exists.
