At times beautiful places make memories, at times wonderful people do. Sometimes both.
Coorg, I do not need to talk much about the beauty of this place as it is a very famous tourist spot. What I will talk about here, is how to explore the offbeat part of Coorg.
Hi There! After months of a tight schedule, and a few trip experiences (which I unfortunately couldn’t share), we’re back. This article belongs to a series of articles titled ‘Up South’. Recently, I covered a few places in Karnataka, India. It was a long trip, hence cannot be covered in a single article. Let’s start off with Mysuru.
Mysuru (formerly known as Mysore) situated in Karnataka, about 150 km from Bengaluru. My feel about Mysuru: Apart from being a well-known place of historical importance. You get to see a lot of British architecture in government and public offices. It is a home to many museums.
I can start with a hotshot introduction about Pichavaram, as it is hotshot for real. But I would first like to thank my friend Sourabh Dutta for suggesting that I should visit this place. It was worth all the efforts. Adding to the list of praises, this is the second largest Mangrove forest in the world. When did I go here? Oh doesn’t matter actually. Its worth visiting anytime of the year. Close to Pondicherry and just 12 km from Chidambaram, this was a part of my recent Pondy trip.
The journey to Pichavaram from Pondy was picturesque. We stopped enroute at a few local south Indian joints for lunch.
