Road Trip from Hyderabad to Badami
A quick long weekend getaway from Hyderabad - Badami - was a pleasant surprise. Since it is closer to Hampi, most of the tourists club Hampi and Badami together. We, however, could not cover it during our trip to Hampi. The weather played its role perfectly, giving a stunning background to our photographs. Beautifully preserved caves, ruins, and an ancient temple on the lake. Visit Badami (and Hampi) just when it starts to rain or when it just stops. Avoid the peak monsoon and summer seasons. Don't forget to pack your own lunch for the road!
