Birds of Paradise

-

One lazy Sunday morning, we decided to visit Birds of Paradise, a unique place where you not only watch birds and animals but also get a chance to learn about them. The best part is that visitors can even touch and hold some of them, making it an unforgettable experience.

This trip was mainly planned for our kids, Viha and Moulya. Since it was a last-minute plan, we managed to book an afternoon slot. Pre-booking is mandatory here, and the slots can be booked through their official website. Thankfully, Kiran took care of all the arrangements, and at the scheduled time, we drove off to our destination.

How to Reach: Birds of Paradise is about 25–30 km from Bengaluru city. It’s easy to reach by car, cab, or bike. Driving is the most convenient option, as it gives flexibility with timing.

Timings & Entry Fee: 

  • Open 6 days a week (closed on Tuesdays for maintenance).
  • Timings: 10:30 AM – 4:00 PM.
  • Entry Fee: ₹250 + GST per person (for ages 3 years and above). This fee is the same on weekdays, weekends, and public holidays.

The Experience: Once we entered the premises, we were grouped into batches. A guide then took us around the farm, explaining the different birds and animals they care for. It was exciting to see the kids interact with the birds and listen to their curious questions. The entire walk felt both educational and fun.















Our Takeaway: Our trip to Birds of Paradise was refreshing and memorable, especially for the kids. It’s a perfect short getaway near Bengaluru where both adults and children can learn, play, and connect with nature. If you plan to visit, remember to book in advance and enjoy a day filled with nature, learning, and joy.

Kabbalu betta trekking is one of the options for the hikers around bengaluru and located near Kanakapura talluku. Its   around 80Kms from Bengaluru. We have couple of options to reach Kabbalu:  Bangalore > Ramnagar > Chenpatna > Kabbalu (82 KMs) Bangalore > Kanakapura > Satanuru >Kabbalu (87 Kms) I had been to this place many times before but could not get a change to trek this hill, it is one of the best places for those who wish to start trekking.  Since it’s a last minute plan, could not invite anyone for this trekking. But the special thing about this trekking is my brother Kiran joined me for this trekking. It was the first trekking with my brother.  Just to escape from the weekend traffic and the heat we started early morning around 6.00AM from Bengaluru and took Kanakapura Road to reach our destination. Even though it’s a single road the drive was awesome, last night rain added more beauty to the surrounding environment. ...

There are lot of historical places around Namma Bengaluru, one such place is Bheema Bakasura betta which is around 70 Kms from Bengaluru. This hill is located in a small village called Kaiwara, Chikkaballapura district. This place is more famous for many other temples say Kaiwara Tatayya temple, Amaranarayana Swamy Temple & Bhemmalingeshwara Temple.   History of Kaiwara betta: Kaiwara also has various stories attached to Ramayana & Mahabharata. Mythology has it that Bhima killed Bakasura during the exile period of the Pandavas when they stayed at Kaiwara.

Mawsawdong Falls

We kicked off our day in Cherrapunji with excitement, ready to explore some amazing spots nearby. Our first stop was Mawsmai Caves , one of the popular attractions in the area. The cave isn’t too long, but it’s packed with interesting spots and unique formations. This little adventure set the tone for the rest of our day. To get to Mawsawdong Falls, we drove a short distance from our earlier stops. The path to the falls took us through small villages, scenic hills, and patches of thick green forest, giving us a glimpse of the peaceful countryside. Once we arrived, we followed a short, easy trail that led us down to the waterfall. The water flowed gracefully over the rocks, creating a beautiful cascade. Unlike some of the bigger waterfalls in the area, Mawsawdong has a calm and peaceful vibe. The falls flow into a clear, natural pool below, with rocks and trees surrounding the area. It’s a perfect spot to relax and soak in the beauty of nature. As we explored Mawsawdong Falls, we came a...
