Self-drive trip across Thailand (7 days, 2000 kms) : Part 1 – Dreams Delivered

By AUROJIT

Soon after landing at Suvanrnabhumi airport, Bangkok we picked up the car and moved south to Bang Saen, a local beach-destination some 100 kms south of Bangkok. Thereafter, we drove to Chiang Mai in North Thailand, bypassing Bangkok (Bangkok to Chiang Mai is about 700 kms).

ऐसे पहुंचे हम मुंबई !

By Sushant Singhal

हमें पश्चिम एक्सप्रेस पकड़नी थी जो रात्रि 10 बज कर 45 मिनट के लगभग नई दिल्ली स्टेशन पर अवतरित हुई। प्लेटफार्म पर लगे हुए चार्ट में पुष्टि करके हमने अपनी कोच में जाकर सामान वगैरा शायिका के नीचे ठीक से लगाया, रेलवे की हिदायत का अनुपालन करते हुए चेन से भी बांधा। मित्रों-संबंधियों को हार्दिक धन्यवाद देकर विदा किया, गाड़ी चलने पर वस़्त्रादि बदल कर लेट गये। बाहर अंधकार का साम्राज्य था, मिडिल बर्थ खोली जा चुकी थीं अतः नीचे वाली बर्थ पर सिर्फ लेटा ही जा सकता था, तब भी दोनों बच्चों को वही नीचे की बर्थ चाहिये थीं ताकि खिड़की से बाहर के दृश्य देखते रह सकें। पता नहीं दोनों कितनी देर तक खिड़की से बाहर अंधेरे में आंख गड़ाये बैठे रहे होंगे। अर्द्धरात्रि में चल टिकट परीक्षक ने दर्शन दिये। नींद से उठकर उनको स्थिति स्पष्ट की और एक टिकट के लिये बकाया किराये हेतु रसीद बनाने के लिये कहा। उन्होंने जुर्माने सहित जितनी राशि मांगी, दे दी। हमें नींद आ रही थी अतः फिर सो गये परन्तु इस शोषण को देखकर मन में एक असंतोष बना रहता है और जब भी ऐसा अवसर पुनः आता है, यही मनस्थिति होती है।

By Surinder Sharma

पंजाबी दुनिया के हर हिस्से में बसते हैं. भारत के बाद कैनेडा ऐसा देश है जहाँ बहुगिनती पंजाबी रहते हैं. इनकी खास बात है यह अपनी अलग पहचान, रीती रिवाज और धर्म कायम रखते हैं. बैशाखी खालसा पंथ की स्थापना के रूप में मनाया जाता हैं.

Summer Vacation – a wonderful run through NH-2 from the Ghats of Varanasi to Home – Part II

By Amitava Chatterjee

I went to check whether they washed the car or not, as promised yesterday. The outer body of the car looks like we just finished, sorry ‘Won’ the cross-country rally…several layers of dust all around the body and required a considerable amount of time and efforts to bring it back to its’ original colour. The security guard was of immense help and cleaned the car within next half an hour.

Hundred in Gangtok – Part 5 (Final)

By Deependra Solanky

But me and my camera was not having any desire of sleeping as I wanted to capture the beautiful Teesta river in my eyes as well in the camera lens. The views from the bus window were amazing. Early morning, cloudy weather, green high mountains and flowing Teesta; I could not ask more from the Nature. I clicked endless photographs. After some time it started raining which made the surrounding more beautiful. Around 7.30 we stopped in the middle near a small tea shop just near the banks of the Teesta. It was a great experience to have tea on the banks of Teesta while is was raining outside.

Heart of Kolkata – Experiencing the Rich Heritage

By Anupam

Kolkata(originally known as Calcutta), capital of the Indian state of West Bengal, former capital of India, is one of the 6 metros of India. Also known as the cultural capital of India, sometimes city of joy, city of festivals, Calcutta as a city still depicts as a true cultural, political, festive and an antique city in India. Almost 300 years old, Calcutta has really grown with ages and diversities, and is currently trying to compete head to head with other metros in India in terms of development too.

Hundred in Gangtok – Part 4

By Deependra Solanky

The very first place to visit was Tashi View Point. It was around a distance of 7 km from our hotel. It is an observation point at an altitude of 6000 ft developed be erstwhile king of Sikkim, Tashi Namgyal. On clear days in early morning, this is the best place in Gangtok to view the mighty Mount Kangchenjunga, the third highest mountain in the world. One final destination still remained to visit and it was Ban Jhakhri Falls. It is a theme park surrounded by lush green forest on the outskirts of Gangtok.

Hundred in Gangtok – Part 3

By Deependra Solanky

Vehicles are not allowed on MG Marg like in most Mall Roads in any hill station. A large sign board welcomed us at MG Marg. We were completely stunned after witnessing MG Marg, the feeling was kind of a European city. Gangtok administration has developed and maintained it in very good manner. It has been divided into two lanes, one lane for one side walking. And the divider is not a typical road divider. A large number of beautiful plants with flowers give the feeling of a green belt to the divider. On both sides of divider, benches have been placed so that people can sit and enjoy their time with no hurry. I didn’t have an experience of this kind of setup before.

अनजान सफ़र : गंगोत्री – श्रीनगर – पौड़ी – यात्रा का समापन

By rodneyrock2000

“मंदिर का निर्माण एक पवित्र शिला पर हुआ है जहां परंपरागत रूप से राजा भागीरथ, महादेव की पूजा किया करते थे। यह वर्गाकार एवं छोटा भवन 12 फीट ऊंचा है जो शीर्ष पर गोलाकार है जैसा कि पहाड़ियों के मंदिरों में सामान्यतः रहता है। यह बिल्कुल समतल, लाल धुमाव के साथ सफेद रंग का है जिसके ऊपर खरबूजे की शक्ल का एक तुर्की टोपी की तरह शीखर रखा है।

हरि का द्वार हरिद्वार – भाग २..

By Praveen Gupta

ऋषिकेश हरिद्वार से करीब २५ किलोमीटर दूर हैं. इसको हिमालय का प्रवेशद्वार भी कहा जाता है. ऋषिकेश हिन्दुओ के सबसे पवित्र स्थलों में से एक हैं. ऋषिकेश को केदारनाथ, बदरीनाथ, गंगोत्री, यमुनोत्री आदि का प्रवेश द्वार भी कहा जाता है. यह कहा जाता हैं कि यंहा पर भगवान विष्णु ऋषिकेश अवतार में प्रकट हुए थे. इसलिए इस स्थान का नाम ऋषिकेश हैं. वैसे तो ऋषिकेश में सैकड़ो मंदिर आश्रम हैं, पर समय अभाव के कारण में कुछ ही मंदिरों और आश्रमो में जा सका.
