My Heritage Tour We went to Mahabalipuram on 25th December 2018 i.e., Christmas day. The place is an architectural marvel which speaks itself over the course of time. We went as a group of 15 people and the trip was mainly for the kids who are required to get a glimpse of our arts and heritage. The kids thoroughly enjoyed the trip and their usual naughtiness peeped at times. As a parent, I got satisfied that kids had an outdoor trip and got to know the real world which is a must to know for them, apart from their studies. I'm damn sure that trips lie this, would increase their creativity and brought out their inner knowledge about arts and crafts. I'm reminded of the following, which I have read somewhere.... PEOPLE WITHOUT THE KNOWLEDGE OF THEIR PAST, ORIGIN AND CULTURE IS LIKE A TREE WITH NO ROOTS.

Caption :- Travelling Trigger Happiness Last Year 2018 is very special for me becoz it was unexpected tour to Agra as I saw epitome of love i.e. Taj Mahal the symbol of love with my Sister #@rameshwari, and with my family. this was one of my most khas trip as I became speech less as soon as I saw white marbal work with its intricate art work which is know as Kinari work we both were enthralled it was indeed Eye feast to me. Taj Mahal fabric is Awesome, I feel words will be less if I will describe its beauty. it really deserve its seventh wonder of world. I visited Machkund or Muchkund ia a series of 108 temples of different dates, machkund is 4 km from main town of dholpur. You will see many monkeys here which may try to take your valuables like mobile and food stuff but dont worry Indian police is there to help you as they helped me while taking snaps among monkeys. I believe Travelling helps a person to become a citizen of the world in the true sense. "Travel Is Life". Travelling Open the windows of facts. My sister and family also loves travelling. Travelling with her is really thrilling. Travelling is one of the most important medium to gain the knowledge across the world.Travelling gives me tranquility, happiness to my inner soul. I believe that Travelling helps a person to become a citizen of the world in the true sense. Life without travelling is just like bird without wings. One should read all pages of this world book whenever he/she gets time. "Travel Is Life" Travelling Open the windows of facts. Me & my younger sisters and my brother also loves travelling. Travelling is rytham of life which eradicate negativity & infuse our mind with tons of positivity, happiness which are important things to live a life. Every travelling gives us lots of lesson of life only one has to open the windows of our innter mind. I feel happiness from bottom of my heart to share with you. Travelling makes me who I am!

My Love for Heritage sites never ends. Where ever i go whether its national or international, i visit the heritage sites.The way it was created centuries back where there was least source of big machines or man power. Heritage is beautiful as it depicts the beauty of place and people. It shows how creative the people are. . Heritage depicts the purity of that place.
Heritage depicts the purity of that place.

It was our honeymoon when we landed in BHUTAN - the land of peace, love and innocence. We posed a lot in front of those ancient architectural pieces of Bhutan. Sharing Some of those, which were either taken in front of Monastery or Some Castles and Forts in Bhutan.

This year in Feb we had a long awaited family trip to Delhi-Jaipur and Agra. We were a group of fifteen members. We visited famous monuments like red fort, Amber palace, jaigarh palace, qutub minar and Taj Mahal. These monuments were so beautiful. Their design, style and architecture was just amazing. These monuments reflects our glorious past. In each each spot we hired a guide so that we can know more about the visited place. As an Indian i am proud to live in a country with such diverse cultures. We should always make efforts to preserve these monuments.

A "WONDERFUL" trip with my wife after my marriage. Yes, the first visit was to the worlds wonder TAJ MAHAL. It was my first time and I went WOW with my better half .The view was Breathtaking and artistic works the history behind was jaw dropping. The trip continued to Red Fort, Agra fort. Agra Fort, which is a walled city with both Hindu and Islamic architecture. It was damn hot that day and there were not so many spots to hide ourselves from the sun. The powerhouse of Mughals where princes were crowned, festivities celebrated, wars fought, romance began and traitors punished. Explore the beautiful red sandstone palaces of Akbar and Jahangir which later gave way to the white marble palace of Shah Jahan. Witness the place where the hero of Taj Mahal spent his last few years imprisoned and died gazing at his creation. A quality time was spent with my wife and the trip was filled with joy and happiness. People say Taj Mahal is the symbol of love but i realised it was built out of sorrow. It helped me to heal my wounds from the past and gave a positivity to my soul. It was so amazing experience to see such a great historical monument.

My parents 25th anniversary. i decided to give them best gift to went taj mahal with them. they both are so happy and unexpected experience for them. Taj mahal is a massive marbel structure without weight, as if formed of ether, perfectly rational and at the same time entirely decorative, it is perhaps the greatest art work. Best day for my parents. Love#ma#papa#me#taj mahal#25th anniversary celebration#awesome place

India is famous for it's monuments. The Taj mahal, seventh wonders of the world is in Agra. I still remember when I was only 5 year old when I visited to Taj Mahal (it's almost 23 years ago). I cannot express my feeling that how I was very excited at this age. Apart from Taj mahal we have many monuments that are famous for their beauty and architecture. Well I visited Red fort long back still I would like to highlight a few places which I found interesting were: Meena bazaar - It is said this bazaar was being inspected by Baadshah himself where sometimes Begums used to portray their economical skills along with other women shopkeepers Museum dedicated to history of Red Fort (my favorite was poem written by Bahadurashah zafar) Museum dedicated to indian army (shaurya of India) Gardens Apart from these places Red Fort itself is very big and lovely to roam and spend time. It might not be possible to see the whole place in a day, I would suggest to go there several times to have the real feel of the best of Mughal empire and Delhi. Cheers!!!

First of all happy #worldheritageday 2019. I honestly think that Me & my Mom are born to travel and explore. So Keeping her choice in mind, I chose a job in which I have to travel frequently and I can take my mom along with me and tried to fulfill her dreams as much as I can. A glimpse of world tour. She loves photography and all these pics are clicked by her because asking random strangers to click pictures is too much of a hassle and I can do anything to see a smile on my mom's face. She just love traveling because it gives her an internal satifaction like when you get your food, when hungry. Thats particular moment, cant be expressed. After each and every trip, I sat down and analyze, what I have learnt and what extra I have explored. Ive started to understand my life from different perspective. Our relationship get cemented by traveling together. But making memories together to look back upon is something to be cherished for lifetime!

Milan cathedral: "It is not the honor that you take with you but the heritage you leave behind " quoted by branch rickey. When I visited "Duomo di milano"- the cathedral of Milan,italy it reminded me of this quote. Obviously being a teenager fashion is always like my best friend so Visiting the fashion capital Milan was on my bucket list and I was extremely happy when I got to know that it was one of the cities included in our Europe trip last year .I waited to enjoy the fashion streets , clothing of people etc but what attracted me the most was indeed the cathedral ,it was magnificent and electrifying ,it had so many statues and each one was flawless!! I got to know about some of the facts about the cathedral after visiting it that it took over 6 centuries to complete ,it is the largest church in Italy ,third largest in Europe and probably 4th or 5th largest in the entire world .I was amazed about the facts and glad that I visited this historical heritage building.This was dedicated to St Mary of nativity. The Duomo square where the cathedral is located is a famous tourist attraction,as the square has a splendid mall with top brands.The metro also has a stop in the Duomo square which exits exactly opposite to the cathedral which makes tourists easy to visit it.Our family comfortably reached there and we enjoyed clicking pictures and viewing the sight.Nature always enhances the beauty which already exists and the flock of pigeons added beauty to this sight. We had fun feeding grains and playing with them.The Milan cathedral was divine and elegant inside made of darkened large Marble plates.The rooftop terrace gave an extraordinary view of the <a href="http://city.It" target="_blank" style="color: #0065f6;">city.It</a> was an awesome experience exploring traditions and heritage of the Europeans.

We had fun feeding grains and playing with them.The Milan cathedral was divine and elegant inside made of darkened large Marble plates.The rooftop terrace gave an extraordinary view of the city.It was an awesome experience exploring traditions and heritage of the Europeans.

This Tuesday, on April sixteenth, I woke up to the news Iconic spire topples and centuries old roof destroyed in huge blaze. I was shocked; it was disconcerting to even imagine that fragments of the church and some items of historical importance may been damaged inside the church.
I recalled the time I visited Notre Dame, just a year ago. On April seventeenth, our family was in Paris, and we spent a major part of the day at the Cathedral. It was a memorable experience.
I remember feeling very blessed to be praying and lighting a candle in one of the oldest and greatest places of worship, which was built between the twelfth and fourteenth centuries. Its said that over twelve million visitors, belonging to various faiths and nationalities from all over the world visit the Cathedral every year, and to know that I am one of them, standing where countless others from over the centuries and eminent historical figures have walked and prayed, was humbling.
That morning when we reached the cathedral, though there were many tourists, it barely felt crowded. At first glance, Id noticed a lot of sculptures and striking statues on the exterior walls. In a way, Id been prepared- reading about the three portals: arched doorways into the church, the gallery of the kings above them, the west rose window, the towers, and the sloped arches called flying buttresses- but actually seeing them was a unique experience.
It was with overwhelming awe, and quiet wonder that we walked into the cathedral.
The interior of the Church was all breathtakingly beautiful and serene. It comprised vaulted ceilings and beautiful stained glass windows, especially the three famous rose windows, with their biblical depictions in the North Rose window and portrayals of angels and saints surrounding Christ in the South window, were a sight to behold. The diffused coloured light, resonant spaces, lit candles, and the morning service being conducted in French; it all made the atmosphere feel profound and holy.
Another memory from inside the church is looking at an extraordinary musical instrument -the biggest pipe organ in France. The church is also said to house some of Catholicism's valuable relics, like the Crown of Thorns and a fragment of the True Cross, upon which Jesus Christ was crucified.
After we exited the church, we climbed to the top of the towers to experience the most recommended views of the city. When wed gone up all three hundred eighty-seven stairs on the narrow spiral staircase, the view was amazing. It was undeniably worth the effort. We could see the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, the Seine River and many of its bridges from the higher vantage. We were also able to take a closer look at the finer points of French Gothic architecture, the gargoyles, and much more.
We also saw the Cathedrals Spire up close from the top, which was constructed during renovation in the nineteenth century; the same one that was destroyed in the recent fire. Notre Dame has seen wars and destruction through the ages. It has been through several restorations and renovations in the past, which comes to show that this architectural wonder has stood the test of time, and shall continue to do so for ages to come as efforts and discussions are already on to rebuild and renovate it again..

Visiting world heritage places alway make it feels like touching the history. When it's a with a family member then it multiplies the happiness as recently witnessed the famous architectural beauty of English rulers 'The Victoria Memorial' in Kolkata. The entire memorial hall made from white marble that gives it a new dimension carrying its glory, history, and ancient architectural beauty. It's an unexplainable beauty having important documents, weapons, paintings, fancy and royal costumes, showcases, historical deeds and thousands of rememberance. When I visited there I felt like I was went back to the last century. It was an unbelievable experience! A chair made of ivory will always remind me of this place. The garden outside is so beautiful. It's marvelous for the white marbles used to build the entire memorial. The fairy Queen on the top moves round. My Mom is so happy for my choice to visit this place rather than watching a movie. A heritage place makes a memory of lifetime!

Karla caves, are important Buddhist sites in Maharashtra, best-known because of the famous "Grand Chaitya" which is "the largest and most completely preserved" chaitya hall of the period. It has the enormous Buddhist Stupa and the caves have so many fine sculptures on a large scale on the rocks.The cave complex is a protected monument under the Archaeological Survey of India. There is Goddesses Ekvira temple adjacent to these caves, where devotees come to offer obeisance to the Goddess. Beautiful place
