South India Heritage Sites To Explore And Unfolding Lore

South India Heritage Sites To Explore And Unfolding Lore

As one came across an ad courtesy information filtering system relating to heritage sites in South India to explore this set of information was no less than a whirring roar. It left no one whining and none fuming. Years turning to decades, decades turning to centuries travel enthusiasts hadn't paid a visit to these heritage sites despite paying lumpsum to keep on a tight leash the inflation kite. Inflation was still a battle to be won and these diehard optimists believe some day they would have undiluted fun. Given the ad and the attention it grabbed they set their sights on sites that went like this: Chola Temples, Mahabalipuram, Pattadakal, Western Ghats, Nilgiri Mountain Railway, Mysore, Bijapur, Sacred Ensembles Of The Hoysalas and Kakatiya Rudreshwara. Sensing an opportunity here the residents of Mughalsarai (Uttar Pradesh State) opinionated that their State Govt had to do its home work with clinical precision to get some of its sites included in heritage list and prior to inclusion declaration there be no dawn to dusk celebration. If celebration has to happen so be it if such sites have been visited by the likes of Michael Bevan. 

Residents From East India First To Make The Move

After going through this ad those residing in the East namely residents of States of Bihar, Odisha and West Bengal and who get a rare chance for people located in South and West to greet decided to zero in on some of these sites irrespective of family members having differing height. For all they had to do was to make an advance booking in train going to a place named Khurda and from there take a connecting train to South and doing so maintaining round the clock connectivity with near and dear ones residing in State Of Nevada. The first locale to arrive at after much deliberation would be Chola Temples in the State Of Tamil Nadu followed by Mahabalipuram (Shore Temple) also in the same province and much subject of discussion and none having any grievance. Of late Tamil Nadu had been getting good press thanks to versatility and policy makers making the right guess. 

After Tamil Nadu The Next Course To Hit Would Be Karnataka Xanadu

After Tamil Nadu for these travelers a day spent next to a cafe to unwind the next course of action would be to hit on a Karnataka trail with Pattadakal first, Mysore second, Bijapur third and Sacred Ensembles Of The Hoysalas fourth in the chain and these places mirroring the import of historical monuments to temples and visit in this pecking order with least likely to be hit by travel connoisseur cane. Tired and tested for Western Ghats and Nilgiri Mountain Railway they would set aside full one week as Western Ghats passed through States of Goa, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Kerala with some in the receding pastures playing viola. The peak point in Western Ghats would be Cardamom Hills which would give enough thrills.

In The Last Lap

In the last lap tour to Kakatiya Rudreshwara in Telangana State would be much deliberated and undertaken and so be it making inside out of stress coming from ride by bus. This excursion may not be perennial in nature but it would bring on table a wish list that more and more tourists should explore these wonders of India much figuring on World Heritage Site and shining all through day and night. More enamoured to undertake such tour they would recommend that security be beefed up in view of heavy rush and those chasing in a season of crush. With temperatures in the zones frequented roughly in the range of 30 to 32 degrees centigrade the visitors on spots visited won't have a different take. Squeaky clean and serene surroundings and free from air and noise pollution potion would be the discourse much to debate and elevate. 

Wonderland In Asia Hoping To Make Inroads In Australasia

Once having completed this sojourn and returned to office station which had relieved those who repeatedly yawn these East India States residents would wake up to a reality that INDIA had much to offer on travel destinations provided one had ounce of patience. From radio functioning nonstop and newspapers read with full alertness they would eagerly look for travel plans offered by giants of romance and if that fits in their budget they won't shy away from accepting invites from defence establishments and those captivated by soccer tournament. For these visitors from East India and those wishing to be freed from smartphone phobia such vacation is a must as it makes them relive the magic of a wonderland in Asia which hopes to make inroads in Australasia. When and where it would happen it can't be spelled right now as it would entail investments sprinkled with enough dough.
