What to expect in Parshuram village? Parshuram village is snugly perched on a mountain-top on an off-shoot of the main Sahyadri range (Western Ghats). It derives its name from Lord Parshuram (the 6th incarnation of Lord Vishnu) and this is the place where the Lord is supposed to be residing for eternity. Lord Parshuram is also said to have created the Kokan region or the western coast of India, by reclaiming the sea. Thus, the village has a distinct spiritual charm of its own.
Added to that is the verdant greenery, which is typical of Kokan region. Tall evergreen trees create a very enchanting ambience for the village and even in the hottest summer months, the village boasts of several trickling streams of natural and cool fresh water. In the monsoons, the place is nothing less than paradise, while the winter is equally beautiful. Following are the major places of tourist and religious significance in Parshuram village:
