Banglore was my business trip from 4th Nov, 2019 to 13th Nov, 2019. Between those dates, I took benefit of visiting famous places in Banglore in one weekend.

On 9th Nov,2019, Saturday, I took bounce bike visited to Cubbon Park. In Cubbon Park, this library was there. 

About this library : 

The colonial beauty was constructed in 1908 in memory of Sir Seshadri Iyer (Diwan of Mysore) for his service and allegiance to the British Raj. It began functioning as a public library with 4750 books and 215 members in the year 1915.  

The Karnataka Government took over the library in 1966 and converted the public library into the State Central Library in 1986, where it was opened to the public only for consultation of the documents within its premises.

We can get very old books here.

Let's visit to more than 100 years old library by my clicks ...

My experience (My first trekking such kind): 

Date : 7-Jul-2019 Sunday

We(except 2 late comers) gathered at Panvel station at 8.30 a.m. We all were coming from different para of Mumbai. We did some breakfast idli, meduvada at panvel.

We were total 10 for Trip. But 2 late comers were very late. So we 8 friends took 2 auto and reach dam near chawk station. They have taken 700 rs for 2 auto rickshaw.

We reached dam around 9.50 a.m. we clicked some beautiful scenery at dam and clicked our memories there. Some friends were doing too much to take photos and all. So we wasted half an hour there to take photos and all.

Now we finally started Trekking. After 15 mins of walk from dam, we reach one shop. We bought some biscuits and snacks for enjoying trekking with snacks.

Now I can tell, that finally our trekking started. At starting atmosphere was pleasant with cloudy atmosphere. But after some time, sun was playing hide and seek. So we all were in little worry about upcoming trekking route.

But after sometime, atmosphere totally changed. There was speedy wind with high rain. We sat behind one large stone because we can not even stood freely. (Advise : In such high speed with wind, sit down, otherwise sometime it create problem ). We sat there around 15 min's due to such continuous speedy wind and rain. But that was very good experience. I thought what type of storm can come while trekking on Himalaya that was also my dream.

After 15 mins, we resumed our journey. We reached mid level around 12.30.  We saw there many little water falls in other mountains. We sat there sometimes and click some beauty of nature. 

We also take some snacks and take tea (Ahaana.....). & then went ahead :



We resume our journey and in between we met with one small water falls in our route. We enjoyed with that small water falls & took many photos. We halt here around 30 mins and then resumed our journey.

We returned to downside and we have taken almost 1 hour. We walked till main high way as we didn't get any ricshaw and car. We caught bus after waiting for 1 hour. We reached panvel around 7 p.m We had breakfast and caught train. 

It was wonderful trekking experience.
