Bhopal division, Administrative division in Madhya Pradesh, India.
Bhopal division is an administrative region in central India made up of five separate districts that together form a large area. These districts are Bhopal, Raisen, Rajgarh, Sehore, and Vidisha, each with its own communities and characteristics.
The area originated from the former Bhopal State, which merged with the region after India's independence. Three of its current districts - Bhopal, Sehore, and Raisen - were part of this earlier state.
The communities here celebrate their own local festivals and prepare regional dishes that vary from place to place. The architecture reflects influences from different rulers and cultural traditions that shaped the region over time.
Visitors can explore the different districts, each with its own mix of cities, towns, and countryside. The best time to visit is during the cooler months when the weather is more comfortable for travel.
The area is dotted with several lakes and natural reserves that provide homes for many plants and animals. These water bodies and green spaces make the region an important natural area in central India.
