Siva samudra - fun of the day

This time while bidding "Adieu" for our friend before her wedlock,had a refreshing trip to Siva samudram falls .It has a beautiful history when I surfed about it in Wiki,as I always love stories .We reached in 3 hours after having yummy breakfast at Kamat hotel.Inspite of Mantya District being so hot,Siva samudram waterfall along with gaganachukki and barachukki brought life to the place with running water.

Its a feel of happiness while seeing smoke out of gushing water.I would suggest never to miss that Koraikal ride for 300 bucks,it worth it.Its a lifetime enjoyment when we swirl in the koraikal and whent the  koraikal rider takes us closer to gushing falls and the feel goes unexplained with lot of selfies.Its one such image captured by my friend and it stands closer to my heart.
                               

After a happy ride,we can drench in falls which is at walkable distance from this place.We thoroughly enjoyed drenching in falls with loads of fun.After spending funtime at Barachukki falls ,we went to Talakad and its a place with sand dunes .It has its own history,which I read in small pamplets kept for sale.Its a place where shiva is in five different avatars as Pathaleswara,vaidheswara,narabaleshwara et all.As I always love to have temple visit,I enjoyed it with the story .After peaceful lunch in small karnataka mess,we planned to visit Somnathpura which was at 30 Kms from Talakad.If a person interested in monuments,architecture its a place not to be missed.As its been created in Hoysala's period,same replica is at Halebidu .

Here goes few snaps captured at Somnathpura,will make us to say WOW.Its the pillar with lot of curvilinear work

I enjoyed a day's trip with interesting facts and pictures.There is always so much to celebrate in ancient monuments to modern innovations .Special credits to Mr. Akshay for capturing wonderful pics at its best.
