Nandura
Skip Nandura unless you are passing through on the Mumbai–Kolkata rail line: a 30-minute stop for the Hanuman statue (check if trains stop), then continue to Shegaon or Lonar.
Nandura is a small market town in Buldhana district, Vidarbha, with a single notable sight: a 33-metre Hanuman statue. It sits on National Highway 6 and the Mumbai–Kolkata railway, making it a brief stop for travellers on that corridor, not a destination.
