The details of how this Vav was constructed is also written in Sanskrit and Pali language. The Vav also works as a air – conditioner as there is a sharp difference of six degrees ...

Puri - Sand Idols -

....Keeping a estimated distance from the sea, is the primary thing. This work is not simply a work – its a understanding – of the sea, of the waves and the winds - in all the various moods of the nature. Its tough as it requires a lot of patience. Putting all this what comes out is a beautiful work of art – in the form of various sand sculptures.

Vrinadavan - Home of Lord Krishna -

... A traveller should visit that destination in India because it shows our culture, our religiion & moreover will give you a feeling that our Indian culture is great. In the urban lands, people are getting more & more westernised, they are forgetting their culture but after reaching Vrindavan, one will realize that even westerners want to be oriental, to feel the chastity of orientals.....

Five Top Summer Travel destinations and Holiday Spots to Visit

It is difficult to choose from the wide variety of holiday spots that are available, the five top summer destinations have been short listed here. The criterion for each one is different from the next. While one may be for budget travelers, the next may be for business travelers. One may be abroad; while the next may be a hidden getaway you knew little about. And of course to top the list there are the all time favorite beaches of Hawaii. The only criteria they have in common is that they are all great places to visit during the summer, with your family, your partner, or just all by yourself. The top destinations are the following:

• Puerto Rico
• Martha’s Vineyard
• Hawaii
• Aspen
• London

Puerto Rico

There is a proposal to introduce a law which makes it mandatory for every US citizen to have a passport if they want to travel the Caribbeans. If and when this law becomes effective Puerto Rico, which is a commonwealth of the US, will see a surge in the number of tourists. With an increased demand the costs would also go higher. So if someone wishes to have a great vacation at a moderate price then this may be the last year to go to Puerto Rico. Several airlines are offering very economical fares and it helps if you buy a return ticket as then you would qualify for a special discount. Once you reach there you can decide on putting up in 'paradores' which are small lodgings that are lent out by the local people. They offer several attractive packages from which you can choose one of y.
our own liking
Martha’s Vineyard

A short drive and then a ferry ride from Boston and there you are – at Martha's vineyard. Known for its tranquil beaches and busy restaurants and shops the place provides an ideal locale to get your work done at the same time you relax. If you are planning for a working holiday this is the place to be. The Harborview Hotel in Edgartown, the Mansion House in Vineyard Haven and the Winnetu Resort in Edgartown's Katama section are the best places that you can put up and feel to be in home away from home. You can also take part in cooking classes, writing workshops and if you are a bit more adventurous you can even try out horse riding.

Hawaii

An increase in tourist inflow has made the meant that rates in Hawaii have gone down. And the rates have gone down not only for hotel accommodations but also for air fares. So it might just be a good bargain to have a vacation down at Hawaii during this period.

Aspen

Now known more as a ski resort Aspen was once a silver mining town. Aspen provides something for all levels of skiers. A beginner can learn the first few tricks and the pros also get the ideal landscape to hone their skills. And of course it has got the lovely mountains that are indeed breathtaking.

London

Once the world's largest metropolis still is very close to any tourists heart. With a great blend of tradition and modernity this is on place where you will never get bored. And of course you also have the incentive of being to a different country.

Australia’s Aboriginal people were thought to have arrived here by boat from South East Asia during the last Ice Age, at least 50,000 years ago. At the time of European discovery and settlement, up to one million Aboriginal people lived across the continent as hunters and gatherers. They were scattered in 300 clans and spoke 250 languages and 700 dialects. Each clan had a spiritual connection with a specific piece of land but also travelled widely to trade, find water and seasonal produce and for ritual and totemic gatherings.

Despite the diversity of their homelands - from outback deserts and tropical rainforests to snow-capped mountains – Aboriginal people all shared a belief in the timeless, magical realm of the Dreamtime. According to Aboriginal myth, totemic spirit ancestors forged all aspects of life during the Dreamtime of the world’s creation. These spirit ancestors continue to connect natural phenomena, as well as past, present and future through every aspect of Aboriginal culture. Learn more

OOTY The cool Place in India

Couched amidst those gorgeous blue mountains of southern India, there is something special about the erstwhile British township of Ooty. Year after year, it draws tourists, adventure enthusiasts, honeymooners and the film industry like bees to nectar. Sure, many wise travelers believe that Ooty is a dumpyard, a degraded, over-rated hill station, and so on. Nevertheless, the wiser one will see how Ooty can soothe strung-up nerves and become the backdrop for a wondrous holiday.

Ooty nestles in an amphitheatre created by four majestic hills-Doddabetta, Snowdon, Elk Hill and Club Hill. These hills are part of the Nilgiri ranges that are really the meeting point for the Western and the Eastern Ghats. But why the 'blue' mountains-one would naturally wonder at the name. Do rest assured, when the lavender-blue flowers of the famous Strobilanthes cover the hills in floral profusion, it would be time to stop wondering, for it is these funnel-shaped blossoms that are the reason for the name.

Although signboards all around scream and beg to make people call this 36-sq-km hill resort Udhagamandalam, their pleas obviously fell on deaf ears. Ooty will always be Ooty to everyone. As the blaze of the afternoon sun gives way to a nippy evening, one can make his way towards the nearby lake. This part of Ooty was once a huge bog with a west-flowing stream. In 1824, the lower part of the stream was converted into a lake. Though the lake seems ordinary enough, what really gets the tourists all excited is the warmth and buzz of activity in the vicinity. There is a boathouse where rowboats and motorboats can be had on hire. A Tamilnadu Tourism Development Corporation venture, it remains open from 8 AM to 6 PM. Sitting at the edge of the lake and watching the sun dipping down to herald darkness, is a soothing experience, to put it lightly.

The beautiful Botanical Gardens are, in a word, Ooty's milestone. Reaching the sprawling maze of greens and blooms, up northeast of the township, one's first thought is of the incredible influence of British rule in India. And these images, reminiscent of the Raj, were all over Ooty. Not surprising, considering that the hill resort as we know it now was founded by the British, in the early 1800s, to serve as the Madras Government's summer headquarters. The Botanical Gardens of Ooty, established in 1847, are much like the typical, manicured and planned gardens one sees so often. But the real beauty of the place is its plants-an amazingly diverse array with trees, shrubs and herbs of a mindboggling number of species. And the flowers were really something to write home about. Was it the altitude-Ooty nestles at 2240 m above sea level-and the rarefied air, or the lack of polluted air that gave these flowers an added shine and gloss? They smiled from everywhere as one ambles about the lovely, spread-out profusion. The fossil tree trunk that one sees here is believed to be 20 million years old!

HILL STATIONS IN INDIA

Western Australia

Western Australia stands in stark contrast to its eastern cousins. Here development has not occurred along the coast at the same furious pace as it has on the eastern seaboard. Escape the crowds and float amongst tropical sealife on Ningaloo Reef just offshore from the tiny hamlet of Coral Bay, feed wild dolphins at Monkey Mia or swim with whale sharks off Exmouth.

This is an ancient land and a huge one: Western Australia is the largest state in Australia, constituting one-third of the country. Its diversity often astonishes, with extreme contrasts in climate from the tropical north to the temperate south.

Indulge in boutique wineries, gourmet produce and world-class surfing in the southwest, known for its forests of karri trees. Or head north to Broome, an oasis in a harsh landscape with beautiful Cable Beach, and the gateway to the ancient and spectacular landscapes of the Kimberley Region.
