10 Reasons To Explore Karnataka
Whenever I’m asked about my favourite destinations in India, I have my pat answer – Rajasthan and Goa. However, there’s one destination where I have travelled quite a few times and it has grown on me. It’s one of the states in Southern India – Karnataka. I have done all kinds of travels there – solo travel, family travel, mother-daughter trip and couple travel, and all my experiences have been fabulous.
Karnataka is quite diverse I’d say. There’s so much to explore and absorb in the state. But, wherever you go in Karnataka, make sure to transit in Bangalore for a few days. I simply love the city. I want to go back to Bangalore for its amazing food scene, and its lovely tree-lined streets. Some of the hotels in Bangalore give a good overview of the city. So, choose to stay at a nice hotel, such as Shangri la hotels.
Here are my reasons to explore Karnataka –
Beautiful landscapes
As a traveller and a photographer, I look for beautiful landscapes all the time, and Karnataka has plenty of them. Be it my road trip from Hyderbad to Bangalore, Hampi or Dandeli, I have been amazed by the awe-inspiring landscapes.

I believe people are the soul of a place. I have met some really nice folks in Karnataka. Even though I have not been able to communicate in words due to language barrier, the smile and the warmth of the locals have expressed what I needed to hear.
Village charms
Karnataka has many interesting villages. The life is so laidback and fun. I have explored the countryside of Hampi on a bicycle and wandered through the villages of Udupi.
