Trip to the magnificent city of lakes- Udaipur

By Mala Raman

Rajasthan with its rich culture, grand palaces and forts has always been one of the most coveted regions aspired by Mughals and later by British. The story of Udaipur and Chittorgarh are no less. Udaipur was built by the valiant Sisodia king of the Rajputs, Maharana Udaisingh in 1553. It was the historic capital of the kingdom of Mewar. Udaipur succeeded Chittorgarh which was besieged and taken over by the Mughals. After 1818 it became a British princely state. Udaipur is popularly known as the “City of Lakes” with its numerous lakes major ones being the Fateh Sagar Lake, Pichola Lake, Swaroop Sagar Lake, Rang Sagar Lake and Doodh Talai Lake besides others. The city is flanked with ethereal gardens and mountain ranges.

Enchanting Sikkim

By Mini Sarin

Sikkim is a state in East India in the Himalayan foot hills. We started our journey from Delhi, where we took Deccan Air flight to Bagdogra, which is the nearest airport to Gangtok and is around 4 hours drive. At the airport, we took a local cab service (that we had booked in advance), the driver was waiting for us at the airport and thus began our tour of the exasperating Himalayan abode.

Udaipur Diaries Continues …Part-2

By Kiran Nawathe

We left “Sajjangarh” at around 2.15 p.m. for “City Palace”. On the way we wanted taste rajasthan variety snack and ballubhai rightly stopped and one of very famous food chain joint JBM. Never forget to try Dal Kachori and Pyaj Kachori here, it’s affordable with great taste. At around 3.15 we were at “City Palace”. Entry tickets for city palace is Rs.330/- (which includes entry for must recommended visit to museum). Believe me at first sight I was wondering why to pay so much for palace, but once we were inside felt it’s worth.

Talkād – A City under the Sifting Sand

By Cheeni_Kum

By the banks of Cauvery was the ancient town of Talkād a bustling pilgrim city now lay buried under the sheets of shifting sand. What transpire me to visit Talkād are not the exquisite carvings and murals or the archaeological excavations but a curse – The Curse of Malangi, the ancient name of the neighbourhood.

Road trip – Delhi to Hyderabad in 2 days

By Apurva

Via DND, Agra expressway we enjoyed our route with little bit of smog in between which we assumed to be gentle clouds relaxing our self through the express way. At 75 kms we paid around Rs. 415 at Jewar in the starting and did not had to pay for the next 2 tolls for Mathura and Agra plaza.

Music by the ghats of Varanasi – The Mahindra Kabira Festival

By Nandan Jha

Mrs. Sucharita Gupta. While Harpreet sang some soulful self-composed pieces on Kabir, Mrs. Gupta worked her magic with thumris, bhajan and you-name-it on Kabir. It is another level of performance when the artist herself feels elated and wants to continue performing bringing out new stuff from the bag. And classical/semi-classical Indian Music works well with our taste and sensibilities. So it was, as they say, magical!

मेरी पुष्कर यात्रा – पुष्कर मेला 2017

By Shobhit Rastogi

पर्यटकों को लुभाने वाली तमाम जगहों से भरी राजस्थान की धरती में पुष्कर का एक अलग स्थान है, क्योंकि बाकी जगहों की तरह यहाँ कोई रेगिस्तान, महल या किला नहीं है, पुष्कर पूरे विश्व में अपनी पहचान रखता है अपनी धार्मिक और सांस्कृतिक विरासत के लिए I पूरे विश्व में ब्रह्मा जी का अकेला मंदिर पुष्कर में ही है, इस कारण हिन्दू धर्म में पुष्कर का एक बहुत ख़ास स्थान तो है ही पर उसके अलावा पुष्कर की इस विश्व स्तरीय पहचान के पीछे, हर साल कार्तिक के महीने में आयोजित होने वाले पुष्कर मेले की अहम् भूमिका है I साल के वो आठ दिन जब ये मेला चलता है, तो पुष्कर देश ही नहीं पूरी दुनिया के मानचित्र में होता है I

केदारताल यात्रा- वापस दिल्ली के लिए

By Harish Bhatt

अगली सुबह हमारे कहने के मुताबिक होटल स्टाफ ने हमे पाँच बजे उठा दिया। नहा धो कर हम अपना सामन लेकर टैक्सी स्टैंड स्टैंड पहुँच गए। वहां ऋषिकेश के लिए जीप लगी हुई थिस लेकिन हम ही पहली सवारी थे। जब तक सवारी पूरी न हो जाये मतलब ही नहीं बनता की जीप चले। वहीँ एक टेम्पो ट्रवेलेर भी खड़ा था जो देहरादून जा रहा था। उसमे कई सवारियां बैठी हुई थी और उम्मीद थी की वो पहले चलेगा। ड्राइवर से बात की तो पता चला की पहले भी चलेगा और जितनी देर हमे ऋषिकेश पहुँचने में लगेगी उससे डेड घंटे पहले ही वो हमे देहरादून पंहुचा देगा। फिर सोचना क्या था, हम टेम्पो ट्रवेलेर में सवार हो गए और गाडी फुल होते ही देहरादून के ओर चल पड़े जहाँ से मुझे वापस दिल्ली की गाड़ी पकड़नी थी। केदारताल यात्रा लगभग समाप्त हो चुकी थी और ये मेरी सबसे यादगार यात्राओं में से एक रही…

The Barren Tribal Circuit

By Pronil

Tribal circuit is one of my best trip I had so far, more than 1000 KM X Chandigarh in 3 nights and 4 days, exploring through the whole of Himachal, passing through two major high altitude passes, exploring the changing vegetation and roving to places where you bound to feel “This is heaven and I am God”. You probably get hypnotized by the nature and feel need of nothing and feel a peace which only god can feel. All worries are left behind, in fact at that height when you look below from the edge of the cliff you will feel like there are my big worries looking so small from here!

केदारताल यात्रा – भोज खड़क – केदार खड़क – केदार ताल

By Harish Bhatt

19 जून 2017 – कपिल ने बताया की भोज खड़क से केदार खड़क के बीच दूरी ज्यादा नहीं है लेकिन रास्ता काफी दुर्गम है। पहले दो घंटे तो रास्ता कल जैसा ही खड़ी चढाई वाला था लेकिन कोई ख़ास परेशानी नहीं हुई। कुछ और आगे बढ़ने पर हम एक ऐसी जगह पर पहुंचे जहाँ पर कोई रास्ता ही नहीं था। भूस्खलन से रास्ता गायब हो गया था। अब हमे एकदम नीच केदार गंगा तक जाना था जहाँ से रास्ता ढूंढ़ने की कोशिश करनी थी। नीचे पहुँच कर समझ में आया की पानी में उतर कर ही आगे बड़ा जा सकता है। एक तरफ केदार गंगा का हड्डियों को जमा देने वाला पानी था और दूसरी तरफ ऊपर पहाड़ी से पत्थर गिर रहे थे।

The Residency – India’s Alamo

By Patrick

The Residency is a wonderful piece of history. It tells us of the resilience of Indian troops during the mutiny. Studies tell us that they were defeated due to the lack of officers. Any army needs officers to coordinate fire and chalk out strategies. This was sadly lacking and the revolution petered out. The British on the other hand realised that they could not be masters for long in a country not their own. The Residency stands today as a testimony of the rule of that day.
