Trip to Kaudiyala

By mukesh

All of us were full of excitement and adventure and thrill, this was an out of the world experience , now thrill doesn’t stop here, our trainer told that before we reach a cliff for cliff jumping we all will jump in river when he will ask to do. As soon as the last rapid came , he asked us to jump and we did, what a thrill……and excitment, chilled water and strong flow of water, but we are holding a rope tied with raft and floated with raft for 2-3 kms.

Everything stablised once we reached for cliff jumping, this was a jump from approx 30 feet height again a great thing to do. Finishing off just stopped before Rishikesh, came out of river , completely exhausted so had lemon water to claim our energies back. Took a local bus to reach Shivpuri where our vehicle was waiting.

A trip to Kasauli and Baru Sahib on bike

By Raminder_Singh

Got up at 7.30 AM. Checked the engine oil in our bikes and found that engine oil level in Hunk was very low. Asked the locals about any spare parts shop around and got to know that we can find one in Dharampur. Started our bikes again at 9.30 AM and moved on to see the very famous ‘Monkey Point’. Harmeet’s Hunk was loaded with 3 heavy bags as he had plans to stay at Baru Sahib. We reached Monkey point and got to know that we will have to trek and bags were not allowed. There was no place available where could keep our bags so had to drop the plan for ‘Monkey Point’. After that, we reached ‘Sunset point’. It was really an amazing place with a lot of breathtaking views. It was greenery all around and completely quiet place. Just the sound of birds. Just feel the fresh air and feels like you are in heaven. It was a very nice experience. After spending some time, enjoying the beauty of nature, we went to the market to have lunch. Had Chinese food at a shop but the food we had there was pathetic. I never had such food in my life. We left from there and decided to go to Shimla and then Kufri from there. Left from Kasauli at 3 PM. While on our way back, I started feeling sick and suffered from indigestion and gastric problems due to the food that we had. Reached Solan as Harmeet had to buy engine oil for his Hunk. Got the engine oil from Chambaghat near Solan. I was still not feeling well. Took a tablet of Pantop-D and we then decided to go to Baru Sahib due to health issues. Way to Baru Sahib was the worst one. Baru Sahib is located 70 kms away from Solan.

जादू मानसून का : जब छत्तीसगढ़ ने ओढ़ी धानी चुनरिया !

By Manish Kumar

भिलाई से रायपुर होती हुई जैसे ही ट्रेन बिलासपुर की ओर बढ़ी बारिश में भीगे छत्तीसगढ़ के हरे भरे नज़ारों को देखकर सच कहूँ तो मन तृप्त हो गया। मानसून के समय चित्र लेने में सबसे ज्यादा आनंद तब आता है जब हरे भरे धान के खेतों के ऊपर काले मेघों का साया ऍसा हो कि उसके बीच से सूरज की रोशनी छन छन कर हरी भरी वनस्पति पर पड़ रही हो। यक़ीन मानिए जब ये तीनों बातें साथ होती हैं तो मानसूनी चित्र , चित्र नहीं रह जाते बल्कि मानसूनी मैजिक (Monsoon Magic) हो जाते हैं। तो चलिए जनाब आपको ले चलते हैं मानसून के इस जादुई तिलिस्मी संसार में । ज़रा देखूँ तो आप इसके जादू से सम्मोहित होने से कैसे बच पाते हैं ?

Dancing Peacock at Nahargarh Fort, Jaipur

By Nirdesh Singh

Nahargarh Fort is perched on a hill overlooking the city of Jaipur. Best time to go there is early in the morning. It is a pleasant half hour drive from downtown city. There is a lush forest on both sides of the winding road. Drive slow to take in the greenery and sounds of the forest. People can be seen jogging and cycling. Birds chirp and peacocks give out their shrill cries when they see you approaching.

A Day trip to Fatehpur Sikri from Delhi

By Nitish Banka

There are 4 things to see in Fatehpur Sikri fort complex Buland Darwaza, Fatehpur Sikri Fort, Tomb of Salim Chishti, and the Panch Mahal.All these places are architectural marvels of that time.The paintings on the main fort structure are exceptional.Many movies like Pardes, mere brother ki dulhan etc were shot here.

The Dargah of salim chisti was the best thing after Buland Darwaza which is the highest in the world The magnificent size of the buland darwaza was eye catching ..there are about 100-150 stairs then the gigantic structure called Buland Darwaza. Akbar later built the fort here and Jahangir did the marble art on Salim Chisti Dargah .In salim chisti dargah one can pray and can tie a knot to make a wish.As Akbar also wished for a child here and his wish got fulfilled.Even today people make wishes here.

Mystical monsoon visit to Nahan, Paonta Sahib and Dakpatthar – Part II

By Bidisha

There was a stretch of over 5 kms with heavy traffic jam for a brief half an hour well into the middle of our journey just before we reached Roorkee. We had no inkling as to what cause the whole furore. But then 1 hour of slow snail-pace driving and we came to the action point. And almost all of a sudden, we realized we were driving into what seemed like a muddy pond. A lot of on-lookers were standing in higher and safer grounds on both sides of the road. And they were hooked on to the passing vehicles enjoying the drivers’ and passengers’ consternation in the hope of experiencing the cruel enjoyment of seeing a water-logged stranded car with helpless passengers inside. At least 50 odd two-wheelers were seen tugging along their vehicles wading through waist-deep mud and slosh with little children in festive clothes sloshing and pushing the two wheelers from the back, yelling and cheering each other.

Teerthraj Pushkar – The Pilgrims Paradise: Pushkar Sarovar

By Mukesh Bhalse

Shivam is very much fond of bathing in River and sea so he started taking off his cloths and I was also excited to take a holy dip as soon as possible, so without wasting time we both put our first step in the pond, since it was hot that time so we felt this bath pleasant.

गढ़वाल घुमक्कडी: रुद्रप्रयाग – कार्तिक स्वामी – कर्णप्रयाग

By Vipin

उपर के नज़ारों ने शरीर को तरो ताज़ा कर दिया था, इसलिए उतरते वक्त ज़्यादा समय नही लगा और उतरते ही पैदल यात्रा आरंभ. कुछ एक किलोमीटर ही चले थे कि दोस्तों को थकान लगने लगी, सोचा चलो जो साधन मिल जाए आगे तक उसी मे चल पड़ेंगे. अब चलते चलते हर एक आगे जाने वाली गाड़ी को हाथ दिखाकर रोकने की कोशिश करते रहे, पर सब बेकार. किस्मत से थोड़ी देर बाद एक ट्रक आता हुआ दिखाई दिया, आधे मन से इसे हाथ दिखाया और ये क्या! ट्रक तो थोड़ा आगे जाकर रुक ही गया था.

Musical trip to Mahakal Nagri via Mecca Madina – 1

By Abhee K

So we entered in General coach. The train was full at 0715 hrs. First section was full of daily goers, some were reading news paper, few were sleeping and few were talking. There were few students also who were studying. The second section was full of ladies. I requested one of the ladies if she can shift and adjust us in one seat. They have shifted. So we got approximately 1.25 seat to accommodate 2.5 of us (me , my husband and my kid). Then I just turn around and was taking a glimpse of a train. It looked like as If I have rewinded my life and I had reached 10 years back when you are actually comfortable travelling in General coach. All beautiful ladies with beautiful bangles , nicely cladded saree or salwar suits , beautiful payal , toe rings etc etc. All were looking so beautiful and I was feeling jealous as my two gold bangles was nothing in front of colorful bangles. Being at Chennai Gold always means a lot here. But at Indore I was attracted towards those beautiful colorful glass bangles. Suddenly, I heard a song.

“Dheere Dheere se meri zindagi me aana, Dheere dheere se dil ko churana “..

Romancing the Train – Pune to Nasik

By Nirdesh Singh

My favourite travel author Paul Theroux says in the opening paragraph of ‘The Great Railway Bazaar’ – the best travel book ever written – “I have seldom heard a train go by and not wished I was on it”. One simple sentence summarizes the entire romance and mysticism around the trains. It conjures up the sights and sounds of unknown exotic destinations. It is as if you don’t care where the train goes; you only want to be someplace that is far and not seen before. Someplace where people look different, language you can’t understand but sounds musical; and food is an adventure everytime.

Meanwhile, the train chugs along several stations. It is the perfect weather to buy chikki in Lonavala and feast on hot vada paos. The taste brings back memories from the past. It seems as if the chikki and vada tastes have been standardized like McDonalds. You remember the taste from times long gone when you took the Madgaon Express from CST to Goa every month on the Konkan Railway Line.

माता वैष्णोदेवी यात्रा – भाग २ (बाण गंगा से चरण पादुका)

By Praveen Gupta

दर्शनी द्वार के बाद और बाण गंगा से पहले एक दीवार पर माता वैष्णो देवी की यात्रा का पूरा नक्शा बनाया हुआ हैं. हम लोग पवित्र बाण गंगा पर पहुँच जाते हैं. बहुत से लोग यंहा पर स्नान करके आगे बढते हैं. हमने भी अपने हाथ, पैर, मुह धोया. माना यह जाता हैं की माता वैष्णोदेवी जब भैरो देव से छिप कर के आगे बढ़ रही थी तो हनुमान जी भी उनके साथ साथ थे. हनुमान जी को बड़ी जोर की प्यास लगी, उन्होंने मैय्या से कंहा, माता मुझे बड़ी जोर की प्यास लगी हैं. माता ने अपने धनुष बाण के एक तीर को चलाकर के धरती से एक जल का एक स्रौत उत्पन्न किया. उस जल से ही हनुमान जी ने अपनी प्यास बुझाई. इसी जल के स्रौत को ही बाण गंगा कहा जाता हैं. बाण गंगा की जल में अनगिनत सुन्दर मछलिया भी तैरती रहती हैं. बहुत से श्रद्धालु उन्हें आटे की गोलिया खिलाते हैं. बाण गंगा का निर्मल शीतल जल बहुत ही स्वच्छ दीखता हैं, ऐसा लगता हैं की जैसे दूध की नदी बह रही हो.

आप लोग देखियेगा, कितना निर्मल, कितना शीतल, कितना पवित्र जल हैं बाण गंगा का. यंहा पर बाण गंगा को एक झरने का रूप दे दिया गया हैं. और उसके आगे स्नान करने के लिए एक कुंड बना दिया गया हैं. यंही से पैदल रास्ता और सीढ़ियों का रास्ता शुरू हो जाता हैं. वृद्ध और कमजोर, रोगी व्यक्ति को सीढ़ियों का प्रयोग नहीं करना चाहिए. उनके लिए यंहा पर घोड़े, व पालकी उपलब्ध हो जाती हैं. बच्चो व सामान के लिए पिट्ठू उपलब्ध हैं. उन सबका रेट फिक्स होता हैं. पिट्ठू या घोडा तय करने के बाद उनका कार्ड पर जो नाम व नंबर होता हैं उसे अपने पास नोट करके रख लेना चाहिए. कोई बात होने पर श्राइन बोर्ड के कंट्रोल रूम में उनकी शिकायत दर्ज की जा सकती हैं. थोड़ा सा ही आगे बढ़ने पर हमें माता वैष्णोदेवी गुरुकुल दिखाई दिया. गुरुकुल की सजावट की हुई थी. गुरुकुल का वार्षिक उत्सव चल रहा था. इस गुरुकुल में सैंकडो ब्रह्मचारियो को वैदिक संस्कृति, वेद – पुराणों आदि की शिक्षा दी जाती हैं. यह गुरुकुल एक विशाल इमारत में स्थित हैं. और इसका प्रबंधन माता वैष्णोदेवी श्राइन बोर्ड द्वारा ही किया जाता हैं.
