My Visit to Baudi Sahib Temple and Sarovar (Behrari, Kathgarh, Punjab)

Main Temple, Baudi Sahib,
Main Temple 

In India, we can find many hidden places with lots of tourism potential but due to no promotion may places remain hidden from eyes of most of the people. One of such beautiful and peaceful place is Baudi Sahib which is famous in the local area for its Baudi (Sarovar). This Sarovar is believed to be very holy and on the festival or auspicious days, many people came here to take dip its waters. The main thing which stops you from reaching this place is the bad road which even becomes worse in the rainy season.

To reach Baudi Sahib, you first need to reach Kathgrah, a small town near Ropar. After reaching Kathgrah, you can find two roads to reach Baudi Sahib. Baudi Sahib is around 8 KM away from the main Phagwara-Mohali highway. Here we can find dera of Baba Sarwan Das and present Mahant of the dera takes care of this place. With the efforts of the current Mahant, a big complex and temple have been constructed at this place.

All devotees or visitors who visit this place are offered free food or tea. Baudi Sahib is situated in the middle of Kandi hills and around it, we can find tall hills. This place is very peaceful except the festival days and one can spend a quality time here.

At the one side of the complex, we can find a medium sized Sarovar to take bath. You can also take bath in sarovar; however, I have no idea about its depth so be careful. The good point of this place is that whole of complex and Sarovar are kept well and we don't find any dirt here. Many devotees regularly come here for free seva of the Ashram.

17th century Maa Tarna (Shyamakali) Temple, Mandi (Himachal)

I have visited many ancient and beautiful temples of the Himachal  and found them all unique in their beauty and construction. With changing landscape, we can see changes in the designs of temples. From the ancient wood temple of Shakti Devi in Chamba to Masroor Rock temple in Kangra , all temples in Himachal offer something unique and special. Today, I will talk about the Tarna Mata temple situated in the Mandi city of Himachal Pradesh that is also known as Choti Kashi because of 80 plus temples. The actual name of the temple is Shyamakali Temple and it was built by king Shyam Sen in the 17th century on the hill called Tarna; therefore, this temple has got its name of Tarna Mata from the name of the hill on which it was built.  This temple is also a sign of victory of the Mandi kingdom because Raja Shyam Sen built this temple after winning a battle against the rival king of  Suket Jeet Sen. Raja Shyam Sen of Mandi wished from Maa Kali to grant him a win over the Raja J...

Security Concerns on Vacations

We all love to enjoy peaceful and secure vacations. Around the world, there are many good and attractive vacation locations available for the people; however, at some locations security remains a major concern. Though every country works hard to provide safe and secure vacations to tourists; however, it is important for tourists to learn well about place where they are planning to spend a vacation. In developing or under developed nations sometimes situations even become worse without any warning. Therefore, it makes no fun to choose a vacation location which fails to provide proper security and sometimes, this approach can take fatal look. People can easily reduce most of security risks and worries by studying well about place and planning vacations in time when everything is peaceful in that nation. It is also important to book quality and well known hotels for stay because these hotels take good security measures as compared to other general budget hotels. While travelling with fami...
