Cooooor(G)reeeeen!!!


Cool Green ...Coorg... Madikeri ....if you really wanna get a glimpse of greenery go Coorg...


Some places which will still give the joy that can't be got thru any theme park... We get a refreshing feeling when we taste mint... One could get a similar feel through your eyes... Relaxxsssed! ... Real nice place to visit... Plan for a Long weekend that shoud do ... Get a Place to stay... I guess you dont have to spend much on that bcas our objective is to Enjoy nature... you can opt for a normal room in KSTDC's Mayura... One Tip here try to Check in in the Afternoon... We missed a Park known as Raja's Seat Hope I will Check that out next time...But still our weekend was lost in the Omnipresense of Natures Beauty... You would get a Information Sheet on the Tourist Locations...

I believe 2 days would be enough... Some Places which I guess can be done in a Day are Raja's Seat, Talkaveri(Thalai Kaveri) - Climb the Bramhagiri... Enjoy the Misty Wonder, Abby Falls ... Which is part of a Private Estate... very picturesque, Namdroling Monastery's Nyingmapa Buddhist Vihara - the Golden Temple Really amazing Structures ... Representing The strengts of Tibetian art work (http://www.namdroling.org/) ... There is a Shopping center near the monastry where you can buy some souvenir...Quite big piece of Land... you will easily spend 3 Hrs including some Shopping.....I meant without the ladies :).....Dont cramp many places to visit because places like Nisargadhama wasn't worth spending time you could have them If you have an extra day....

Day 2 you can plan for Irpu falls which is quite far from Madikeri... I would recommend this place because this is where we enjoyed a lot... but beware of leeches...Nagarhole Sanctuary was boring for us because we didn't spot as much wildlife you could find in Bannerghatta.. neways if you wanna go to Nagerhole go early ... you Cab guy would be able to guide you... Oh did I miss those Coffee plantations...Cardamom...and Ginger Fields ... But you wont miss em .. Its pretty Common there.... As for shopping em Honey... you can get on the way from Talkaveri and Spices too ... for Coffee lovers better get it in Madikeri ...again consult the local guy there ..that wud be really fruitful... Writing this was like goin again for a tour ...Green Memories I Guess... Hope to visit some more places like this...

You could always find details on these in site like the one below.... Go for Google....
