Bangalore Metro

                                                          BANGALORE METRO

Bangalore metro is simple, ordinary and one of the best modes of transport in Bangalore city. I rode the metro and enjoyed the journey. I found it very cute and simple. The metro stations too are nice, spacious and clean. The Bangalore metro is very well planned just like the Delhi metro.  I found the metro very quick and the fastest means of getting around the city.



The best thing that I liked about the Bangalore metro was that there was a metro station which went through a mall. That means we just walk into the mall as soon as we alight from the train and take the staircase.  And there, we are inside the mall. It is a great engineering marvel! The metro train ride too, was very smooth. I reached my destination in 10-15 min which otherwise could have taken half an hour by road. Also, during peak hours, overcrowding is managed well and efficiently. The trains are on time and are very well kept. Even foreigners give a very positive feedback about the Bangalore metro. I just  love the Bangalore metro!

Kharghar hills, Navi Mumbai

                                                              KHARGHAR HILLS, NAVI MUMBAI

The beauty of Kharghar hills in Navi Mumbai can be seen in the above and below pictures. I came here for a tree plantation drive when I was in college and clearly remember, I was awestruck after seeing this place. The lush greenery, the valleys , the trees and the view of the city from the hills left me wondering whether I was seeing a dream or I was in reality. It is such a beautiful place that I still fall short of adjectives for describing its awesomeness! I have always been a nature lover and this was the ideal and perfect place for me.


Luckily, it was the rainy season, so the hills were fully covered with greenary and the weather was so cool and pleasant. I felt fortunate that while living in such an urbanised city, such spots were still present, preserved and well kept. Kharghar hills looked even better than the hill stations! I clicked many photos and posted them on social networking sites. The view of the waterfalls was the best thing to see at Kharghar hills. I enjoyed every bit, every moment at this place. It is a superb spot for trekking. 



I was just amazed after coming here. When I saw the hills, the only words that came out of my mouth were 'Wow'! Till then, I had seen such places only in movies, TV serials or magazines. So when I really saw the Kharghar hills, I could not believe that it was reality. It was like a dream come true. I felt that I was on top of the world! It is really an incredibly beautiful place which you must surely visit atleast once in your lifetime. After that day, my life changed. Life became beautiful! I became a very positive person since I knew that my life had got a purpose and that purpose was to keep coming to such awesome places which will always make me happy! So , I shall always hop to Kharghar to see the hills and make good memories.

                                                    PALM BEACH ROAD, NAVI MUMBAI

Palm Beach road is nothing less than a stairway to heaven!  When I once went for a ride by my scooter on this road, I realised what true happiness is. Palm Beach road is a 10 km long road which runs between Belapur and Vashi via Seawoods, Nerul and Sanpada in Navi Mumbai.  It is a beautiful, broad and well constructed road which contains residential buildings, cafes and various other establishments on one side and trees, mangroves and lush greenery on the other. 


It is a wonderful road to ride your vehicle or go for a long drive. In simple terms, it can be called as the 'Marine Drive' of Navi Mumbai. I rode on this road between Nerul and Vashi after I finished college. And trust me, it was the perfect way to end my day! Since the road is very broad, I did not get stuck in traffic jams and I could ride my bike freely . It began to feel as if I was riding my bike in a video game! I could see the entire view of  Navi Mumbai city from this road itself. It was an amazing feeling! It was like a dream. All the stress of the day's work went away like a miracle. Luckily, it was evening time when I rode here  and saw the sunset. That made my day! Youngsters especially flock to this road. There is always a cool breeze due to the presence of various trees which is very soothing to the mind. 



A ride on this road can be a perfect stress buster. The road is very well maintained and clean. That one ride on this road changed my outlook of life forever. It gave me a very positive feeling!
