<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 16px;"><span style="font-weight: 700;">Overview</span><br></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 16px;">Fireflies belong to the family of beetles, and not flies as they are commonly mistaken for. These nocturnal winged beetles use bioluminescence, a chemical reaction when oxygen combines with luciferin, which is present in the lower abdomen of the insect to produce light. If you wish to experience a Non - Crowded Camping along with getting the opportunity to see these little Shiny flies this Event is perfect for you.&nbsp;</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 16px;">Join us for Bhandardara Fireflies Festival Camping 2023 from Mumbai. Its a Non-Crowded Exclusive Campsite and will provide safe and best available option to view fireflies in abundance. The event is Kids, Couples and Families friendly. Other locations include Rajmachi, Igatpuri, and Kothaligad.</p><ul style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 16px;"><li style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">- &gt; Category</span>: Fireflies Festival Camping 2023, suitable for beginners.</li><li style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">- &gt; Duration</span>: Overnight Camping</li><li style="box-sizing: border-box;"><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 16px;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">- &gt; Date</span><span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">:&nbsp;</span>20-May-2023, 27-May-2023, 03-June-2023, 10-June-2023, 17-June-2023, 25-June-2023.</p></li></ul><h3 style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 1.1; margin-top: 32px; margin-bottom: 16px; text-align: left;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box;">Travel Options for Bhandardara Fireflies Festival Camping:</span></h3><ol style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 16px;"><li style="box-sizing: border-box;"><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 16px;">1.
