Chitradurga  My  road trip to Goa started with great excitement.  Lucky enough,  to venture out in January ,before I knew what COVID was.   All  these years of my life,  I never felt the urge to visit Goa. Although I  had heard about its own charmness and beauty.  But somehow could not resist when an opportunity came my way . It was early morning,  we started with two friends  and family  from Chennai.  The drive from Chennai to Bangalore was quite smooth as the highway is one of the best.  In about five hours  we reached Bangalore, skipped the city took an outer road  and  by evening halted at a remote city called Chitradurga.  In fact,  it was a town unheard of..but then after a bit of exploration we knew of its historical significance.  THE FORT The next day we decided to visit the fort,  at Chitradurga...and then continue the journey to Goa.

Pondicherry is one of the best weekend getaway places, especially when you are visiting south India. It has  some nice beaches to relax and cafes to treat yourself. I decided to take the trip and explore the city. From Chennai the trip took me two and a half hours  to reach  the main city. I had heard of the "AUROVILLE" and wanted to visit it.Auroville also known as the "SOUL OF THE CITY". The soul of the city has a magnificent lotus shaped temple called the  "MATRIMANDIR". The matrimandir was initiated by the Mother  Sri Aurobindo Ashram. The foundation stone was laid on 17th November 1973. Architect Roger Anger gave the shape of a lotus in full bloom representing divine consciousness. Initially  an urn  containing soils of 121 countries and 23 Indian  states  was placed at the inner chamber of the temple.  This signified harmony and peace amongst  people of different countries. There is no particular religion to be fo...

The calmness of a morning is suddenly  surged with a crowd to have the first glimpse of the Rock Memorial  with the perfect rising sun  in the background.  You probably can't  miss this out if you are in Kanyakumari,  situated in the southern  most tip of India . Built in 1970 ,amid  after a lot of controversies by  the fishing  men.   The most appealing thing about the monument is  that it is not on land. It has been built  about  half a kilometre  in the sea.  You need to  take a boat to visit  it. Not forgetting,  that it was built in memory  of Swami  VIvekananda,  who attained enlightment  at this very rock.  Here the Arabian sea and the Bay of Bengal  seas me...
