22nd March, 2009, a saturday me and Ganapati had
been to Mysore just to recall our old days spent there. Accompanying other friends there, we planned to go to Nagarahole.
Nagarahole National Park also known as 'Rajiv Gandhi National
Park' is around 94 km from Mysore. 'Naga' means snake and 'hole' means river.You will find most names of the villages
nearby starting or ending with 'naga'.
It has a large number of elephant population. If you go for a safari you
can find tigers, leopards,wild dogs, etc... Area of the National park is 643 sq.km. A perfect get-away for nature-lovers.
Since we dint know that two wheelers are not allowed inside the
Park, our trip ended with just a jolly ride to Nagarahole. Though it was cool since i had taken Venu's 'Bullet'. ;)
