Hello hiveans! Welcome to my blog with smile, love and positivity. I wish everyone happiness.
I love travelling, I know everyone does馃き. There are some places near Bengaluru which can be travelled in a single day.
Last Saturday we decided to go nearby places to bengaluru.
We searched in the Google and there was many places to go around but as we have a 4 year kid, so we have to thought that one side four 3 to hours journey by road in Bike, might trouble small kid but fortunately my kid is brave to handle all the circumstances馃槀. Even She loves to hangout. She loves Bike ride. So we finally we decided to go Shivanasamudra Falls and Talakadu both... From Bangalore it's 140km.
It's not monsoon season but it's OK to go out and see the nature. There are two waterfalls. The eastern waterfall is known as Barachukki falls and western fall is known as Gaganachukki falls
We started our journey at 6'o clock in the morning, it was so cool and breezy morning. We wrap our kid nicely 馃槄 so that she feel warm and we reached there around 10am. We did rest in the middle of our journey, had our Breakfast, coffee, snacks. It was a good ride, my husband drives very smoothly with our kid. So that she feel comfortable.
We reached our destination around 10 am. There was huge parking area. Vendors were selling some fruits ,chaats, snacks, coconut water, some toys, hats and juices shops were there. There was no such big hotel or restro near this falls. So you have to eat fruits and snacks there or else pack your food from home.

Actually Gaganachukki and Barachukki waterfalls together known as shivanasamudaram falls. Barrachukki falls is much more wonderful than gaganachukki falls. The area near this also know as First hydro electic power station of Asia. Barrachukki falls is about 15 mins drive from Gaganchuki.
There is steps to go down to the waterfall. There are benches to sit and see the nature and waterfall. You can relax there when you feel tired.
Talakadu Beach
35 kms From the water falls there is a desert like town know as Talakadu situated in the banks of River Cauvery. It is a small lovely town. It is a must visit place. Around 1.30 we reached Talakadu.
There was so rush and so many people were taking baths in the river. We went there and saw coracles was there and decided to take a coracle ride. The ride was very good and my daughter enjoyed a lot. The price of the coracle ride is Rs-250 for long river ride and short ride was Rs-100. We took long one. And we enjoyed a lot. The water was clear and beautiful 馃槏.
My daughter enjoyed this coracle ride. The river was not deep. It was so fresh and clean water. So, she also took bath in the river with her dad. Small fishes was there in the river.
Then we had lunch 馃構. There was local food stalls.
We Sited there In the beach for some time.
Then we decided to come back to Bengaluru. It was 5 pm. On the way back home,we took coffee.
