It was one of those hectic days, which involved a lot of travel. Todays I went to a different city for some personal reason and had undertook Bike, Train and on foot journey. My travel began at 5 AM and thanks to recently launched bikes services in my area, I able to get a good deal. While the local autos charges too much the bike took me only half the prices. I have to board early morning train and by the time I reached the platform, the day has already began for the ragpicker. I find one picking some stuffs from the railway track.
Soon my train arrived. It was a local train so there was not much crowd. I easily got a window seat and enjoying the view outside. The best things about travelling in local train is that you will get a lot of munching option. Even in the early hours of the day, there were many vendors selling their products. But I took notice of this pretty lady, who sat on train floor and making arrangement for the Green peas plant.
She was busy making small bundle of the Green chickpeas to sell. This is very popular items during this time of the year, and people like to much them as a daily snack item. It is a healthy option too. It took me 3hrs. to reach to my destination. And by the time the crowd was quite visible in the railway staircase. Due to office hours there was a huge rush of the daily commuters. It took me a while to get upto the staircase and getting out of the station.
The bike rides option is good alternative for single commuters. While taking an auto and battery rickshaw cost me much , the bike ride option is cheaper to commute within the city. I again took advantage of the apps and book few ride to visit certain place within the city. This is the first time, I am travelling to this city so unaware of locality. Still the bike ride option allows us to reach the designated spot on time. The biker easily navigate the route through their apps and also they are pretty aware of the local routes. In the mean time I crossed through an ancient temple which is said to be 700 years old.
The temple is dedicated to Radha - Krishna. The entrance gate was very beautiful that has engraving of different idol. Situated in middle of the busy market, or we can say that the urbanization has taken over this ancient temple. It is pretty hard to locate but thanks to this gate, once can easily get attracted to its. Inside the temple, there were few murals of goddess that was appealing.
After spending some time in the quite atmosphere of the temple, I went out for few other meeting. I have my returning reservation for 2'o clock train. So running sort of time, I made sure to complete all my task. At the end I reached the station before time only to wait for the train to arrive. The railway track does look empty.
I believe, a railway station is one such places that made use of maximum metals. Look around and you will see iron tracks, steel pipes, staircase, and other heavy metal usage.
The train was on time and I reached my home in 2hrs. But by that time, it was evening. Again I took the bike ride to reach my home. It was a hectic day after a long time. But I am happy to get everything done in due course. It was an amazing day, especially discovering the ancient temple.
In good faith - Peace!!
