After visiting Balehonnur, in the next hour we moved towards Sringeri, a place emerged in the banks of the river Tunga. Sringeri is a place for number of temples and a place for Adi Shankaracharya who established Sri Sharadha peeta. In the premises of the old temple area there are lot of improvements including other temples with best architecture.
Sri Sharada temple, Sri shankara, ganapathi, and durgamba devi temple located in the middle of the temple area. there is a seperate Shiva and Ganesha temple located on north side. Two bridges catches the visitors eyes, after the Tunga river there are few architectural buildings for past Gurus and Current Guru Nivas. There is a park at the end of the Guru Nivas. Totally it would take an Half a day to visit the complete area of the temple premises. It's y best experience to visit the place and have some good snaps on the way. Afternoon and evening prasada will be provided to the visitors. Kigga Rishyashringa temple is just present at 8 KM distance.

A Notifying Elemadilu tea estate on the way to Sringeri via Balehonnur

On the way to Sringeri we came across lot of scenes where i have caught the snaps of a beautiful tea estate which is between Balehonnur to Sringeri. As the tag is a traveling photography which tends me to take some good snaps. This tea estate comes on the right side while traveling from Balehonnur to Sringeri, definitely on will stop for a while to catch the beauty of the nature and the surroundings. We have a very limited number of tea growing areas in Karnataka where the Coffee is the majority in plantation. Samse tea Estate (Sri Ganga tea depot OR Goomkhan estate) and Kelagur tea point both are the biggest one which are on the same belt, by this i am slightly going to highlight the places where one can enjoy the nature to the closest. Many of us having the same level of mind to enjoy the beauty of the nature and for those this blog will provide the best time to get around and will help to identify the places to get marked for the next trip.
