Trip to Chitradurga!

Haaaaaiii guys,

Im feeling so sad that i could not make time for my third post more earlier than this because of work pressure and also personal issues.:( but.. i never missed an opportunity of enjoying every bit of ROADIES with its lots of twists and turns amidst my work n personal issues. :)

Hope u guys also enjoyed the "ROADIES 6.0" as much as i did.Nauman, the Bangalore boy is the winner of ROADIES season 6.0 Hell down Under. And now me waiting for the next season of ROADIES. :)

And now after ROADIES time im very happy to be back on my blog.And today's blog is about our trip to Chitrdurga fort which we did recently.Yes, u r thinking right, its the same fort which is picturised in hit Kannada movie "Naagara Haavu" where Vishnuvardhan is in a lead role.There is one song in the movie which tells the story of "Veeravanite Obavva" of chitradurga who sacrificed her life for our mother land.Anybody who has seen that one song in the movie would surely want to visit Chitradurga fort.

I was very glad that, the time had come for us to visit that beautiful and historical place.And i must say it was worth spending our one day time visiting that place.

Chitradurga fort is a really a treat to my kind of people who loves trekking.In one day we could managed to visit Chitrdurga fort,Halurameshvara (temple near chitradurga fort), Chandravalli (Historical place), Bayalu Ganapati Temple,Vaani Vilas Dam(after visiting this dam i realised that many of the songs and scenes in recent kannada movies were shot here and the dam is worth it).We could managed to reach Vaani vilas dam for sunset which was our last place to visit while we were back from Chirdurga.I have captured the sunset for u guys.Enjoy the pics. :)

We had left Bangalore at 5am in the morning in our car and we were back by 10pm in the night. Driving was extremely good as the roads were really nice. It was an amazing one day trip.:)Check out few photographs.

Really good road..
