A trip to Nandi Hills in Bangalore, India

Last week I went to my second visit, or rather, the unity of Nandi Hills. This site is about 60-65 km from the city limits of Bangalore. Planning a trip here on a lazy weekend is a good idea when time is short and when you need a change, time pressure can not resist. Nandi Hills, is historically important because Tipu Sultan, the Tiger of Mysore (1750-1799 AD) had built a fort here, and had a particular point in the ear marked unjust punishment: it is called"Drop of Tipu, and the reason is not hard to imagine. Later, during the British Raj, Mr. Cubbon Nandi Hills was as his summer residence.'s Modest white house, now a century old, remains a witness.

Geographically, Nandi Hills is a part of the folding mountains of old, and is not particularly large, mountain standard. It is a mere 1485 meters above sea level. The unit is attractive as forests and agricultural villages dreamlands.This is a satellite city of Bangalore called Devanahalli. Vineyards in the area of ​​points, and residents near the switch speed (typical roads of India) and was juicy, succulent grapes to attract customers. We bought a bunch of blue grapes. They were sweet and had a pleasant taste. In fact, today the vineyards produce enough grapes on the map of wine related Karnataka in India.

The wine has a quality international standards, and not surprisingly,because the variety is here, in particular France, the area of ​​the original production of wine in Europe, and in fact be related, is world.Bangalore "wonderful climate supports a wide range of flora and fauna.What is shocking is that the developers had their tentacles of the land without mercy in this beautiful land, green field, virgin achieved. "Purvankara Properties" bad paintings hang on the right side of the fence in steel, which was conducted for almost half a kilometer. One wonders how the government readily acceptspart in agricultural areas, and invite people to ruin the beauty of a lush green environment?

You start the climb to Nandi Hills suddenly, shortly after the end of agricultural land. The roads are good, and I have no complaint here. But as with all units, ensure that it will be in a vehicle in good condition, and a spare tire in any case to answer. As soon as you are a ticket, tickets sold for R 80 / - per car, which is really reasonable. Your car can be done to be much higher from now on, until no longer climb the vertical boundaries. Above, time growsnoticeably refrigerator. The first time I went there taught me to be better equipped this time with a peasant coat. There are lovely walks and magnificent views, and offers a magnificent view over the valley. The British had their summer Nandi Hills, and the cabin of Mr. Cubbon is now the name of the Ex-India> Prime Minister Nehru. "It was a pleasure to see the care gardens, exotic flowers and trees. We long for photos with our cameras.

It was lunchtime, so we went into a small restaurant run by the government (run by the Tourism Development Authority of Karnataka. The crowd was thin, so you got the best table in the next window offers a panoramic view. The food on this restaurant is good and offers a multi-cuisine kitchenand is very cheap.

For those who can most time on their hands, a visit to the Nandi temple here. I could not, as time passes and we had a trip back home, in a given period to cover.

It is recommended not to go with very high expectations of Nandi Hills. It is a mountain resort in the strict sense of the word as we know in India, although it gives a sense of going supplies. Firstly, it is a very small area, and secondly it is veryGovernment to manage, so it minimizes marketing. No purchases made here (thankfully!) and will have plenty of choice for accommodation. It's much easier for people to travel so quickly or take a budget tape shoes. Beware the monkeys that live here are intelligent and very angry when I'm in the mood for mischief. Do not bother people or bring food in their hands which can tear easily. Keep the windows of your car everI know that these creatures dwell, and looked out the window and see the content.

Finally, Nandi Hills is an ideal place for nature lovers. You can see many different species of birds, and hear many birds fascinating. It is worth visiting at least once, and a good idea to make friends, if the usual party-food purchases in household routine is boring and set something good, fresh mountain air !
