goa, sikkim, darjeeling, shimla, jaisalmer, udaipur, mandu - these fit your bill readily. there are lots of other places too though.
i know i will someday..... and some sunny day........ i'll also see all of europe, north america, other places in asia & central/south america.
but most of the places in india is so bloody hot , you dont feel like going out to check out some exotic locations , untill and unless you travell out when the weather is juss perfect - otherwise the heat can drive you nuts ...
true - during summer only hill stations are suitable and during winter most of india, except the hill stations themselves. but you are in africa - how come you are complainign about the heat?
correct but if u plan ur vacations well...like visitin hot places in winter u can actually have a good time....
so wheres some first hand lowdown about hampi-puttadakkal-belur and mahabaleswar ?? igt-ers from karnataka and tamil nadu ???
Mahabaleshwar is great....i've been tehre quite often...and i bet u have seen this one in movies too often.......i mean all the scenes where the horses run on the open plateau , the car goes over the cliff, the picnic spots, and numerous love songs....they all have mahabaleshwar in it... Hampi.....great...they've started some restoration now that it's funded by world bank....also if possible visit kishkindha....the famed city of the monkey king Sugreeva and his commander Hanuman......i wanted to go there but didn't get any time.....tell me about it. And yeah i searched about Koenraad Elst...great guy...I am reading his articles now...from his official indology site......thanx for the info....
er did you mean mahabaleswar, as in ythe place near mumbai? i am going to mahabalipuram, the one 60 kms from chennai !! i made a type - what with such similar names !! where exactly is this kiskhinda - near hampi? and about Elst - in pm please, not here.
Yeah i meant the place near Mumbai... and about kishkindha.....that's my mistake...Kishkindha is the name of the old state of which hampi was the capital....but theres a mountain called kishkindha something...nearby...i think th guy was talking about that.... i hope u hav e already visited this one...if not then go to ... www.hampionline.com/history/ :beer:
