Shravana Belagola

Had been to Shravana Belagola today.

Shravana Belagola is located in Hassan district of Karnataka.

The 57-feet tall monolithic statue of Gommateshvara is located on Vindyagiri Hill. We have to climb 600 odd steps to reach the statue. It is considered to be the world's largest monolithic stone statue.

The Mahamasthakabhisheka, the head anointing ceremony of the Lord Gommateshwara Sri Bahubali is observed once every 12 years.

Panambur Beach

Panambur beach is located at a distance of 13 Km from Mangalore on the north of the National Highway. Panambur is the name of place where New Mangalore Port is situated.

I got to visit this place with my family on this evening. beautiful place to watch the sun set and to play with high waves.

 

Life is What You Make it

A beautiful book by Preeti Shenoy.
Am sure one can finish reading it in one go like i did.

Its a story built around early 80's about Ankita Sharma, a regular college going girl from a middle class Indian family. All is well until her life takes a sudden U-turn when diagnosed with a mental illness.
Rest is how she fights back even the destiny.

Truly inspiring!
