Madikeri - A memorable trip

This is abbi falls. The photo is taken in rainy season. A beautiful falls close to madikeri, around 6-8kms from madikeri. Now there is some some project going on. So u may not be allowed to get in to water. But a very nice place, you must see this in your life time.

This is the view from the top of Brahma Giri. It was fully covered with mist when we went there. It cleared for while, and we took a photograph. It's said that the Bhagandeshwara muni was doing all his "Tapas" here on the top of this "Giri". You can see a small water filled excavation, which is believed to be the "yajna kunda" of Bhagandeshwara muni.

The place is quite cool, and you will feel the clouds going across you. Nice place to spend some time out of city in the week end.

This place is some 8 kms from bhagamandala. you will get buses from madikeri to here. Its with in 25-30km from madikeri

This view is in front of Iggutappa temple. The nature at it's best. This is during july. A remote place where you will really come of stress and enjoy the beauty of nature.

The Iggutappa Temple, Iggutappa is worshiped by coorgies. This temple has been built in a coorgy style. This is also at around 30kms from Madikeri. There is nothing much to see here except the temple, But on the way to this temple you will you will enjoy the beauty of coorg a lot. such a wonderful place to go.

The mist. side view.. Its taken in the morning. I love the mist of coorg..!!

The misty raja seat. The road which you can see is this pic is the one that will take you to Mangalore.

The Raja seat, in kannada it means the King's seat..!. In olden days the kings use to come here for enjoying the beauty of nature. A very good view point. In the photo u can see a small temple like structure. That is the Raja seat. You will find the place awesome in the evening. Its near to Madikeri city. Just walkable distance.

Kaveri Nisarga Dhama, This is a kind of island. You have to go through a hanging bridge to reach this place. The only animals u can see here are the deers and monkeys. U will find some rabbits also. The place has many huts (Guest house made of wood), you can all it as wooden cottage..!!. One can go here in holidays to stay.

The way into the Nisarga Dhama.. all you can see is the Bamboo...!!!

The hanging bridge, which take you to the Nisarga Dhama. Be careful while crossing..!!

The animals trapped inside the net. They are just waiting for you..!!!

The Golden Temple, the place is around 25kms from Madikeri. The plcae is fully occupied by bhuddists. Its known as Tibetian colony. Its in Bilakuppe. It's a budha temple, very beautiful, and utter silence inside. You have to go through kushala nagar to reach this place.

Inside the Temple...!

The Budha statue..

This one is built recently..!

The boat had just arrived to pick us up to the other side of the river. There is a reserve forest on that side.

you can go for a round on elephant. Rs.50 for four. but its worth it. you can see wild elephants and other animals too. But don't wait if there is a queue for that. you have lot of other things to see in coorg..!!

The Cauvery river.. "Jeeva Nadi".. The rain which made the river colorful (only one color..!!) had just stopped. The group of trees in the middle of the river is an attraction.

The other side of the river you can see the reserved forest, where you can find wild elephants and other animals.

This is on the way to Dubare. The paddy field. Such a great place..!! you can see the freshness of the weather..!
Me in front of Harangi dam. I took my phone inside, but was afraid to take a photo. I took it after coming out..!!

This is a nice place to visit. But there is a comment on this statement. You should visit only during rainy season. Other wise it will be just a visit to see how the dam had been constructed. There will not be any water flowing out of it like the one u can see in this picture..

It creates a fear in your heart. It'll be flowing out at that speed. The sound is terrific..!!

Its on the way to Golden temple. The police people don't allow you to take camera inside. If you wanna take it anyway take a Mega pixel camera and keep it in the front pocket ..!! They will check the pant pockets..!.. If u are caught i am not responsible..!! Its a very good place to see if u visit at around August first or second week..!!
