Travelogue: Warangal

There are some indulgences which can not be explained, one such are bike rides. It needs your complete involvement and in return gives one the complete travel experience. Here, one does not experiences things but (s)he is very much part of the experience itself. Our trip to this important city from Telangana region in Andhra Pradesh was dotted through out by BIG boulders and I mean it quite literally. Prominent among them is the one at 'Bhuvangiri' which has a small 11th century fort atop. The intermittent landscapes were covered with lush green paddy crop. Once we reached this peaceful city with roads broad enough to accommodate its traffic we had lunch and only then we drove to the temple of thousand pillars which is currently under restoration by ASI which was quite a disappointment to us, nevertheless we were fortunate enough to find some one we knew who took us to the site and showed us the work in progress and briefed us about the renovation plan which very much compensated for the loss. We later visited the fort and 'Bhadrakali temple' which was feast for eyes at sunset. Our return trip was one real peaceful drive through the dark cold night riveted with the thump of our engines and illuminated only with headlamps... vrooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmm

This web-album tries to capture those moments.
