Witnessed the ponga paanai (rice boiling in a pot) in a small village called Arittapetti which is close to Madurai. What we witnessed and experienced here was breathtaking to say the least 🤩
.
.

Decking up, travelling with fun people, meeting locals and listening to stories about their village - I hope my travel chronicles this year are going to be as amazing as this day 😍🤞🏼

About Mathoor Hanging Trough: Less than an hour away from Padmanabhapuram Palace in Kanyakumari is this lovely place called Mathoor Hanging aka Thottipalam Bridge aka Mathoor Aqueduct. This hanging bridge is supposed to be the tallest and longest trough bridge in Asia. Height is said to be 100 feet and runs to about a km in length. It has about 28 pillars and the construction costs at that time (1966) was Rs. 12.90 Lakh. The main purpose of this bridge was to carry water from one hill to another for irrigation purposes. The river that runs below is called Parazhiyar 💙

Scroll through : the video is a quick preview of how the place looks 😍. The pictures after that shows how beautiful the landscape is and the last one is where people are actually taking bath 💚

Have nothing to complain about this year as I always believe its the individual's perception and not a year or a person that can make life beautiful or terrible. I am absolutely thankful I got to step foot and live a few days in #Rishikesh this year 🙏🏻 While I can't wait to go and spend more time there, I hope the coming days are going to be better and joyous for all of us 🤗✨

This place, though a bit far away from the city, can definitely be on one of the top places to witness that beautiful #sunrise 🤩 in Chennai.

The pier that you can see in the video (swipe) was once accessible and people used to sit for long hours and have more fun. Now, any local fisherman there can take you if you want to go close to the pier 😀

We have a short video about this place on YouTube as well and you can watch to know more about the pier.

I still keep thinking about this place. I did not Google much, see so many pictures etc of Dandiganahalli Dam. And when I saw this place, with hardly few people, I was just jumping in joy 💚 What I was missing the most was witnessing amazing #sunsets in different parts of the world this year. Like who hasn't? 💁🏻‍♀️

The road trip did not go as planned, for some reason Narayanan couldn't make it to the temple. Thankful to my stars that I was able to. It was Karthigai Deepam, a festival of lights that's predominantly celebrated in South India on a full moon day ✨
.
.
.
On this auspicious day, visiting the temple felt blessed, especially when things did not go as planned. 
.
.

Lepakshi is a Shiva Temple (Veerabhadra) and was built by the Vijayanagara Dynasty. My most favorite part of the temple was the paintings on the ceiling while the Naga which holds the Shiva Lingam is also something that captures everyone's eyes 😍 The story goes a long way back to Ramayana days and such places always are fascinating 🤩
.
.

I am definitely going back again as we did not get a guide who could tell us more about this place. Also, this place deserves many many visits 🙏🏻

This was my most favorite painting inside Chaurasi Kutiya or Beatles Ashram ❤️ Lots of street art inside this dilapidated ashram making it a must see when in #Rishikesh.

This is now under the control of the Rajaji Tiger Reserve and they charge an entry fee of Rs. 150 per adult (Indian). Do swipe for more and don't forget to watch the video of the lecture hall in Chaurasi Kutiya.

@shootme.in is a blessing for those who travel and want to get great pictures at beautiful destinations. We got this clicked in our own hometown #chennai 😍 What you see behind us is the Madras University which was built in 1800's. Standing tall and strong even today, Chennai boasts of many such historical Indo-Saracenic buildings ❤️

Looking so small that I can easily get camaflouged Looking so small that I can easily get camaflouged in these mountains. Nonetheless, #nature always has a way of teaching and every time I'm around these mountains, it always makes me realise we are too small and therefore our problems are even smaller or close to nothing 💚

Also I have observed that when I'm around the #himalayas, my energy levels or let's call it the positivity is always at an all time high ✨ Not sure if many of you relate to this but I'm ever thankful to all the trips I have made to get closer to the mountains 🙏🏻

After our tiring hike down Kedarnath 🚶🏻🚶🏻‍♀️, we just wanted to chill for a day with literally nothing to do. Our search for a property amongst the mountains and nothing for miles around led us to @bsrfarmshomestay near Srinagar, Uttarakhand 💚

We struggled to sit and once we clicked the picture, the struggle to get up was worse 😝 But that good night rest shows on our face 😃

It was just the perfect place we were looking for ⛰ If only we had a few more days at our disposal 😁 Have you found any such gems nestled amidst nature and you would totally recommend? 🤩
