Some moments of Mount Abu

A wonderful gift of nature, Hill Stations always lure the tourists as well as common people. Perched thousands of feet above the sea level, hill station offer a pleasant cool retreat. Far from the crowded cities, hill stations take you close to mother nature. I am lucky enough that few months back I visited India and got a chance to visit the Mount Abu hill station of Rajasthan. Here I want to share some pleasant moment of that trip.
First of all I would like to introduce myself. Hello everybody, I am Wanne Rooney from Madrid, the capital city of Spain. Last February, I got a welcome break from my busy schedule and set out for India on 15 days long trip. First I reached India capital New Delhi and visited the attractions of the city. After passing three days in Delhi and proceeded to India’s popular state Rajasthan which has a number of charming cities. While I was exploring the various regions of Rajasthan, I came to know about the hill station of Mount Abu.
On the way to Mount Abu my travel guide told me the fact that Mount Abu, the only hill resort of Rajasthan is considered among the most famous hill stations of India. Further he mentioned that Mount Abu was the summer resort of the British East India Company. During the ancient time, Mount Abu was the home of a number saints and sages, so apart from a hill station, Mount Abu is also a sacred place for pilgrims.
When I reached Mount Abu, to my surprise it was cool oasis in the desert land of Rajasthan. Mount Abu boasts of many delightful spots which made my trip to this hilly land a memorable experience. First, I was enthralled by the tranquil picturesque of Nakki Lake. Situated amidst the hills, it seemed to me that God himself just carved out this place by his nails. I couldn’t stop myself from enjoying a boat cruise across the picturesque lake. After enjoying a wonderful boat ride I moved to visit other attractions of Mount Abu. Some other highlights of my Mount Abu trip were visit to Sunset Point, Toad’s Rock and beautifully sculpted hill temple of Gaumukh and Arbuda. My eyes were just bedazzled by the exclusive stone carvings in the magnificent Jain temples here. Moreover, today almost four months have passed to my trip India, but Mount Abu has filled my mind with enormous pleasing moments which I can never forget.

Hi, I am Mac Millan from Australia. I know very well that India is bestowed with a number of beautiful hill stations, but I never heard about Mountabu and its attractions. Hopefully when i will plan a trip to India I will pay a visit to Mountabu. By the way can's u tell me the duration of snow-fall at Mountabu.

It's interesting to note that Mount Abu puts together the charm of a hill station as well as the mystique of a pilgrimage centre. I'm expecting a trip to Mount Abu very soon.

Have you ever visited other hill resorts in India? How would you compare those with Mt Abu? Something special about it?

steve said...

As I have visited India just once, I don't have much idea about its hill stations.

However, when I mentioned pilgrimage centre, I actually meant a Jain pilgrimage centre- the Dilwara Jain Temples of Mount Abu.

Hello Mukti, I don't know what do you mean by expression of personal feelings? Whenever u r describing anything rightly from yr heart, den it becomes as lengthy as an essay because it contains a true feelings and experience. Moreover, you try to come out from a rigid idea that blog can't be as lengthy as an essay. It's a personal feelings. Nothing matters how long it would be.

For Tulip and Mukti, i wann's say don't comment about the language or length of blog. Blogs are created with a different purpose, u don't know the exact motive of the author. Better you should look for the fact and information provided. One thing i would like to clear Mukti, blog has no any defined length, you may create it too long or short. If you have visited Mount Abu or any other tourist destination you can share in blog or add some more interesting fact which the author has not mentioned
