Mysore.. Not just a memory..!


Well Yeah, Mysore is not just a memory for me. It's more than that. Maybe I have forgotten something there or I left some dreams over there. I don't know..!


By the way , I have been going back to those days through my pencil and pen. Kinda weird attempt I know..!




  Old singer Building somewhere near to the Suburb Bus station is one of the nostalgic area, where I saw Mysore first, followed by a couple of Auto drivers..!  It's spelled wrong in the picture by the way.. ( It is Singer Building not Ginger :D )

.. And when I started to walk to the city bus stand, the classy Clock tower will smile to me. Believe me, Clock tower is looking awesome in the misty mornings.. I swear !



... Well , the Jagan Mohan Palace is not a frequently visited place but still the place is having some great memories..!

 

There is a gate which would wake me up from the bus when I reached to the Mysore Bus Station. I don't know what exactly its named but it has a key role in my Mysore memories..!



.. Srirangapatna mosque has amazed me many times. We had been there for our weekends and crazy evenings..!


I tried to sketch the mighty Mysore Palace. 


.. And in some weekend we'd planned to climb Chamundi through the steps...!! Man, that was awesome..


I have visited St. Philomina's Church only twice or thrice in my entire Mysore life.. I don't know may be the huge rush of that area made me to stay away .. Even I don't remember how many times I went to Mandi Mohalla ..!!



To Gangothri...!


Manasagangothri, where I lived.. Dept Of Studies in Geography was the nest. Where University tried to dig our asses to the fundamentals of Geography.. :P



Library was one of the best place for rest..! I myself let me sleep almost everyday when I get bored from the drammatic Geographical Studies.. Those Hundred Years old books sung lullaby for me.. 
I still thankful for them and thats the way I became a book lover !! :P





Love maadi.. love maadi.. love maadi...!!  Kukkarahalli kere melodiously sung it for me.. :D

.. And that's the way...to Wayanad !

That was a rainy day when we reached to the 9th hairpin bend of Wayanad Churam (Ghat) Road. Lakkidi is the place where is getting the highest amount of rainfall in Kerala. The misty mountains and greenish atmosphere are refreshed my mood.







The Chain Tree is located at Lakkidi, where the ghost of Karinthadan , a tribal youth who is brutally murdered by British officers, is living. 




Soochippara waterfalls, Needle Rock Waterfalls in other hand, is one of the beautiful locations in  Wayand. Of course the greenery and misty pathways making her an amazing view. 

From Soochippara , I went to my childhood hero Phantom. He is strong and solid in his Wayand Edition. Phantom rock has given us a strange feeling about Mr. Phantom. Lother wasn't there at that time when visited.  May be he is fighting with those quarry peoples !


The sacred Karappuzha dam is upcoming. I don't have any words , Karappuzha Dam is mind blowing.

Yeah, Me reached at Banasurasagar Dam, one of the biggest Earth Dam in Asia. It was raining when I'd been there. Banasura looks more beautiful while in the rainfall.

.. On the way to Mananthavady,  I 'd seen  a green board which indicates some Jain temple. My curiosity brought me inside the coffee plantation. There I found this ruined Temple.




Kuruva Island was over flooded so, they have closed the entry to the Island. I just walked around, it was fun to be messing with this fantastic nature..!!



And through the Paalchuram, I have finished my Wayanad Trip. !
