Bukit tinggi is a place to take a day or two off away from Kuala Lumpur, in Malaysia. It was during our 2nd anniversary, that we planned, just 2 days before, to escape in between the hills nearby, thus made a visit Bukit tinggi. I researched about finding ways to visit Bukit Tinggi : Drive up by car - but last moment we couldn't get the appropriate car. So, next Bus - that goes from Berjaya times square hotel, in Bukit Bintang,  KL to Bukit tinggi at various timings. But unfortunately on calling up to Berjaya Office, found that it's fully booked over that weekend. Of course, what will happen at the last moment. Then, Grab car service - finally this idea came to my hubby and he checked on Grab app and to my surprise Grab cars goes to Tinggi. Yipeeee..... DAY 1 Here we come, we booked grab in afternoon and in 1.5hr reached Tinggi.  Usually It takes approx 45mins from Kuala Lumpur. There we found out that if anyone reserves any of the resorts over there or goes by

B Deoghar A lot and lot of memory about this sweet little city. I have a proper soft spot for Deoghar and not just because it used to be home or did my initial schooling there, but because of the peaceful town it used to be in my childhood and mainly for the famous baba temple. Have spent my childhood in this town, so as you know wherever one spends there childhood, you have so many sweet memories about that location, and after growing up, especially whenever you go visit that same city, then you cherish each and every place where you have being in your childhood, and the same is the case with me.

UDAIPUR - "The City Of Lakes" Udaipur, The City of  Lakes, used to hear this name since my childhood. Udaipur had it's own History as well, because of which I, and like me many other Indian students have read about Udaipur and it's culture in History and in General Knowledge. And after reading about it, obviously always wanted to explore it. And one fine day, last year me and my partner in crime ;) we just spoke "Why not this time while visiting Jaipur, we visit any tourist place nearby, and the name that came up from him was 'Udaipur', I was like am ready, and we informed our family." And the tickets were done. It was last year in October that we traveled from Jaipur to Udaipur i.e., approx 420km. Four of us boarded the overnight train from Jaipur and reached Udaipur early morning at 6:30 am. I was all active to see around; the Railway station was neat and clean and as it was morning time, so hardly few passengers visible on the station
