Last week end, we made a trip after long time.
We were searching for a place where we can go and come back within one day as we didn't have time.
At last we came to a conclusion that we will go to Yercaud.
My husband did not like to go there, because he has been there already, and he found nothing special.
But i wanted to go, wanted to see what is there in that place.
So we made this trip as picnic.
We reached Yercaud at 9.45 AM. From Salem it takes 15 minutes journey to reach the path for hill station.
From down, it takes around 1 hour to reach the place and the road is really good.
It has 20 hairpin bends, and really we enjoyed a lot.
Scenery was awesome, and climate too.
On the way, we gave stop in some places, and enjoyed by seeing the views.
As soon as we reached, we turned up to see the water falls ( ya that was the name written..)
We took more than 200 steps down to go there.. But after going there only we realized that no water was falling there.. :( But it was good to see the hill from there.. water came like tap water.. It was really difficult for us to climb up.. after climbing up, a localwala told that May month is the proper season to visit this place and at that time there will be plenty of water in the falls and summer festival will be there..
Then we took steps towards the lake.. Lake was really good and we went for boating...
Inside that lake, there was a park ( they call it as "Deer Park" ) for children.
After that we went to a temple, i forgot the name of that temple.. But it had nice architecture.. It takes 8 KM upwards from lake. Then We went to the famous "Shervarayan" temple. It was really nice to see. There was a special thing, we have to bend completely to reach inside the temple.
There were three view points.. One is "Pakkoda point" ( Till now me and my husband are thinking why they have kept that name for this place. My husband told, the view might have pakkoda's shape :-). I told , in olden days there might be a famous pakkoda shop over there, and people might have come to have pakkodas and see the view..So the name came.. tell me if you know the real reason behind that name ). The other two view points are "Ladies seat" and "Gents Seat" ( ya.. thats how they call it..). View of the hill was awesome from these three places. Other than these, there was a church over there. And there was a rose Garden.
Climate was so nice... From morning to evening, same climate was there..
We forgot all our worries and we enjoyed..
On that day, I wrote in my diary, " I visited one more nice place in my Life"
Here's the pics..
