India’s railway system is one of the largest in the world and is accompanied by many unique stories. Numerous railway stations in India are renowned for their beautiful ambiance, architecture, or historical significance. However, the station we are discussing today is famous for a very unique reason. Unlike most stations in the country, this one is built on the border of two states. This feature alone makes it an exceptional place to visit.
The railway station in question is Navapur Railway Station, uniquely positioned on the border between Maharashtra and Gujarat. One part of the station lies in Maharashtra’s Nandurbar district, while the other part is in the Tapi district of Gujarat. Situated on the bustling Mumbai-Delhi main line under the Western Railway Zone, Navapur serves as a crucial stop for trains traveling between these two states.
What makes Navapur Railway Station special is the unique experience it offers passengers. They can stand in both states at once, creating a memorable moment. They can even purchase your ticket from a counter in Maharashtra and board their train from a coach parked in Gujarat. This distinctive design makes Navapur one of India’s most unique railway stations.
One of the most interesting sights at Navapur is the border line visible on the platform. Travelers often take photos with one foot in Maharashtra and the other in Gujarat, making for a fun and unforgettable experience.
