Hi,

I think I should re-open my travel photos blog, to share the natural and man-made beauties see by me so far!
Will catch-up soon with photos of places visited.......

The peaceful Bhutan!

Bhutan! A very peaceful, quiet country with the beauty of the unspoiled culture and nature. the Dzongs and Monastries were very beautiful and solemn. Kids and adults looked so happy and innocent. Life lookes simple, uncomplicated! You feel the urge to protect such a place as it is forever!

Queenstown!

A place where I wish to go back again and again! Nature at its best! absolutely unspoiled! Simple, unagitated life. I had spend hours in front of the Wakatipu river seeing it changing colors as day passes. Blissfully beautiful place.

Auckland!

Auckland. City of sails!? Very quiet place surrounded by lush greenary and water. Domain was lovely, you could cross from one side of city to other through it. Didnt impress me like sydney but was nice.

Valparai

Drive up Valparai hills can be pleasant and adventurous! Greenary accompanies you with evidences of elephant trails in between! As you go higher the nature is so peaceful where you hear only the sound of crystal clear water running on the rocks or the birds chirping. All shades of green at its best! You have various options of changing destinations as there are many small places connected by good and bad roads. If you are lucky may catch glympses of harmless wildlife or the huge mammals! If you happen to be there in the year (once in 12 years)of 'Kurunji' flower then go prepared on a four wheel drive with good shoes! I loved driving up in my non-4 wheel drive and wish to do it again!

Cairns! The Down under!

Here you get tiny beautiful beetles and birds made of nut shells.

The silvery esplanade!

Quiet and beautiful tropical Australia, where I felt at home with the familiar flora and heat! The colours of the Great Barrier Reef were just magical!

Watson's Bay!

Go there is summer by Ferry from quay, watch the sailers in their happy moments, let the breeze tear through your face and finish with a walk in the Bay.
