It’s about my traveling experience. “Something is sad- something happy ”. I miss my seniors because college administration was given a Rajasthan trip offer to first-year students only. So, I miss you second-year students in these memorable moments. Happy days with new friends from various states of India.

            The Bus Journey started towards Northwest India on 06 March 2017. Music started in Bus it makes everyone joyful. We forget the problems. Live music and dance inside the Bus, no one is sleeping first day in the bus journey. On the first day, we reached the pink city Jaipur. So many historical places in Jaipur, first we are searched for one ‘Dharmashala – Common large room for one day rent’ all are bathing and eating tasty yummy breakfasts in Dharmashala at about 06 am. But I completed my breakfast twice very fastly and I am interested to visit Shiva temple in front of the Dharmashala. Nearby temple one salesmen giving more discounts on new clothes. First, I have purchased some shirts for less price, there are no lockers I went to put new shirts inside my bag in Dharmashala and all are started questions.  Where did you buy it? How much each one? After my answer, some of the student’s group went to buy new shirts for the trip. 07 am Dinesh came with me to explore new places near our Dharmashala, we walked around 5 km and visited some shops in pink city Jaipur. We reached Dharmashala at 09.30 am. 10 am all are getting ready to visit “Amer Fort” after reaching fort entrance our teaching staff and caretakers have taken group with us, elephant ride available here but expensive and here the climate is too hot I am searching for drinking water and finally found chilled water bottle from a street seller, water palace, city palace, Jantar – Mantar, “Hawa Mahal” I am very excited after visiting the Hawa Mahal Mughal and Rajput architectural styles are awesome hundreds of small windows it allows cool air and beautiful glass work on walls, Birla Mandir, Shri Ram Mandir. The same night we returned to the Dharmashala for having delicious dinner and taken luggage bags, 11 pm we vacated Dharmashala and started our journey towards Discovering Rajasthan Desert.

 Next morning 8 am have we reached nearby Pushkar city, here ‘accommodation is not good, not bad, not safe in the function hall, this function hall actually under maintenance’ after breakfast we reached “Pushkar Sarovar Lake”, “Brahma Temple” lot of local handicrafts, metal- wooden artworks, Traditional dressing and footwear shops nearby temple zone, I also purchased one pure leather wallet for me especially camel logo printed on this leather, “Traveling on a camel in Desert area is my first experience” 2-pm we continued our journey to Ajmer city in Rajasthan.

The same day evening we reached Ajmer city Airel Viewpoint, our ‘Bansal travels’ bus is not allowed in the city. Because of short roads, Road Taxes, etc. So, we segregated in small groups hired share auto’s more than ten students in one share auto.  5 pm View Ajmer “ Anasagar Lake” so many catfishes in the lake it’s sunset time 6.30 pm, beautiful garden near the lake this park is a little crowd with tourists, next reached “Well-known Ajmer Dargah”  large crowed in the Dargah area here also a lot of shopping centers nearby Dargah, biriyani hotels, coconut, flowers shops, shoe-stand, etc. inside Dargah someone collected INR.300/-  in the name of org from my classmates, etc.

Next Morning we reached an unforgettable cool place “ MOUNT ABU” on 08 March 2017, and taken rooms near sunset point.  Every journey has the highest peak point. This is our peak point Mount Abu hill-station 1772 mtr, Guru Shikhar in Aravali Mountain Range of Western India.  Everywhere trees and curved roads, it’s maybe forest zone, well-liked tourist spot for Bike Riders. 10^◦c temperature in the daytime, we took a nap and after breakfast we hired short power steering – Jeep’s for travel many well-known places  in the mountain range, unfortunately, our Jeep missed the “Nakki Lake” peaceful and beautiful place. But I observed the nakki lake from traveling Jeep. But we paid INR 1700 to 1900/- for eleven members to visit all the places. “Om-Shanthi Headquarters visited and done some meditation at [ Brahma kumari world spiritual university auditorium for meditation center cum Universal Peace Hall”. “Devi Temple in Mount Abu has many steps nearby Devi temple “folk dress – photography available” but here no shops or hotels.

Sure you will be inspired by Jainism after getting the history of this centuries-old temple “World famous The Dilwara Jain Temples”. The Dilwara Temples superior architecture on roof sealing with marble work is mind-blowing. No words to explain about this place. “Guru Shikhar Peak point” elevation 4003 – 5676 feet, from sea level. It’s the best place to visit for photography, you can see one “PRL Observatory science telescope place. But Entry Restricted”. Last but not least valuable memories, “Sunset point” you also can reach sunset point by horse riding from the base point. Sunset photography all students and staff go in by walk entry ticket, the beauty of Mount Abu climate enjoyed well, eating sweet corn with friends and observing sun star is looking small and sink behind the mountains,  after sunset here some changes in the environment will suddenly change in to cool. After this trip building a strong relationship between teachers and students.

Return Journey: in the return journey students are thinking, they are crossing the many tourist places in the same way. But admin is not ready to visit the extra places without a plan.  Some of the students are feeling food is not given at the proper time in the return journey, one student lost her mobile, unexpectedly our buses stopped near one temple on Road. We boys feel hungry and went to search food court on the main road and found Tandoori Roti, Butter Rotti. After 2hrs journey one of our bus is starting trouble problem faced outside the city on the main road nearby one petrol filling station. Some of us get down from the bus and drank sugarcane juice, another student group went to take photos in the green agricultural fields, bus mechanic came late so, we had dinner here itself, finally, we are going to reach our final destination Central Institute of Hindi, Agra on 09 march 2017 we safely reached our hostels. I would like to thank you from my heart who are co-ordinators of this memorable journey. Special thanks to the admin for this opportunity, yours obediently “ Hebbare Manikantha Rao”. March-2017.
