One more Sunday … Today I went to Ramohalli(picnic spot) to see 400 year old Banyan Tree through my Hero Honda(two wheeler) with my friend Ravi Kumar.G. This tree spreads over an area of 3 acres.

I started from Marathalli, Bangalore at 10.45 AM and traveled through Mysore Road. In mysore road we need to take diversion (Right) next to Raja Rajeswari Dental College and Hospital (it will come next to Kangari. This place will come 32 Km from Marathalli and 18 Km from Mysore Road, Bangalore)

This is absolutely mud road only, We need to travel 7 Km from this place then we will reach Banyan tree. 39 Km from Marathalli, 25Km from mysore road. We spend 30 mins in this place …. Nothing exciting !!! nothing Great !!! I have seen one more Tree  

In the same road, still we traveled 10 Km and reached MunjanBall Dam(Kaveri water), this is very small dam and used for drinking water, Agriculture. We can’t enter in the water, it’s prohibited area. We started our return journey from this place.

While coming back we went to Sri Brihath Mukthi Naga Temple, it’s very small Naga Temple.

Visited Place, from mysore road.

1. Sri Brihath Mukthi Naga Temple ( 5 th Km)

We took lunch in Mysore road and reached home at 4.00 PM itself. Nothing exciting … Nothing Great … Nothing Bad …. Just one more picnic spot near Bangalore. So Sunday ends now …. One more Monday waiting for me ….
