Again, this is something to experience and not just to read… Got lucky enough to cover 2 Jyotirlingas which are in Madhya Pradesh, Omkareshwar-Mamleshwar & Mahakaleshwar. Omkareshwar-Mamleshwar are one Jyotirling, one is at right bank of Maa Narmada river, other is at the opposite bank.
If you would like to cover both Jyotirlingas, Omkareshwar (Mamleshwar) & Mahakaleshwar (Mahakaal), best thing to do is to stay somewhere in Indore city. Omkareshwar (Mamleshwar) is 78 kms southeast to Indore, Mahakaleshwar (Mahakaal) is around 55 kms North side of Indore. As both are in different directions, Indore tourism wins the battle. Also, who don’t want to stay in the cleanest city of India, they won this 6th time in a row this year (2023).
Journey to Omkareshwar (Mamleshwar) will become very pleasant in next one year as there are lots of road & bridge construction going on. Once you reach here, try to spend some time over Maa Narmada bank, do some boating… it’s amazing!
From Indore to Mahakaleshwar (Mahakaal), you will feel that the city, road, people are so much alive then any other corner of India… esp when we started from Indore at 1:30 AM, it was like a day time. We were astonished to see girls on scotty at that time, so many people going here and there… this is the second city which gave a “secure” feeling, first one for me to see this kind of environment was Bombay (Mumbai).
Once you will reach Mahakaleshwar (Mahakaal), Ujjain, you will feel electrifying. Goose bumps is a small thing to mention… anyways, experience it, don’t go by words.
So plan it accordingly… alternatively, if you just would like to visit Mahakaleshwar (Mahakaal), best is to stay in Ujjain only and later you can visit Indore city… upto Mahakaal what plans he has for you!!!

Its said only those get chance to visit Mahakal .. who all are called by Mahakaleshwar. Not everyone.
Once I was all ready to go.. flight booked.. hotel booked and last moment before hopping into the cab...I was asked to cancel the booking because of some work politics.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I will visit once for sure "Before I Die".
