Nandi Hills

In an around Bangalore - Nandi Hills.

It is essentially a small hill, about 60 kms from where I reside. You can drive up to the top of the hill, where there is a garden, and an ancient temple. It might have been a beautiful place, but for the ill-maintained garden, and lot of construction (presumably for some resort-cottages) that will block the nice view you can have from the top of the hill.
We arrived around noon, so the view during the day was marred by haze. The garden wasn't much to speak of, but the rock face by the side of the temple was a pleasant place to sit, take in the nature, and watch the sunset.
