Ludhiana - Not just a city but a heritage

                                                        Ludhiana - Industrial capital of Punjab




This blog is not written from a tourist point of view but rather an emotional angle. This is because the city that I am going to talk about is my hometown. 

We all know that Ludhiana is known for hosiery and cycle parts. I never valued the hosiery part while I was staying here. I could realize the value when I was in Bangalore and doing shopping in Lifestyle. The same product which I brought from there costing more than Rs 1,000 was manufactured in Ludhaina itself and had a hosiery name printed on it which was just next door to my ancestral house.

                                                      Kutch nahi dekha to kuch nahi dekha!!! This trip has been long due especially after we all having seen Mr. Amitabh Bachan doing the promotion for the Rann of Kutch. Finally, we got a chance and I planned a trip during the new year holidays.  We started our journey from Delhi and reached Ahmedabad. The first thing we visited this time was the Atal Bridge. It is a foot-bridge recently built and looks just amazing. We can compare it with the gardens by the bay, especially because there was a flower festival organized just next to the bridge and it looked nice.    Atal Bridge, Ahmedabad View from a distance                                              Myself at Atal Bridge After having spent time at the atal bridge, being a tea-lover I decided to have a cup of tea at Bagh Bakri Lounge, situated at Atal Bridge. Following day, we started for Bhuj and reached there post lunch. The first thing that we wanted to visit was the Earthquake Muse

                                                                                      Mesmerizing  Udaipur  We were contemplating if we should visit Udaipur or not as on one hand there have been amazing reviews about the place, and on the other some of my friends who had just visited in the recent past did not enjoy much and told that it is just another city.    We started our trip with City Palace, which is the most sought after palace in Udaipur. It would need at least two hours to complete the palace visit from inside and another one hour for an outside tour.  The entrance to the Palace is great with three gates. It feels royal as we enter the Palace.  Like every palace, there is a Deewane-e-aam and Deewane-e-khas sections where the king used to have conversations with the public and his ministers, respectively.  These colourful glass windows were made for the Queens and Princesses so that they can watch the proceedings but no one else can watch them. That is why, we can see them in
