The
Tungabhadra dam in located near the world famous
ruins of Hampi. Hampi is
UNESCO world Heritage Site. Couple of my friends were interested in seeing the musical fountain (
map location on Wikimapia) which was a clone of what you can see at the KRS dam (and the Brindavan Gardens) near Mysore. This was taken near the musical fountain. The trees lit up by the light give an eerie effect to the photo.

The town of Mount Abu is the only hill station in the state of Rajasthan. Since it is close to the state of Gujarat, it is a popular vacation spot for tourists from that state. The two main attractions of the town are the Dilwara Temples and the Nakki Lake. The carvings in the Dilwara Temples is exquisite. It is so fine that you are afraid to touch thinking that it might crumble to pieces. Alas they wouldn’t let you take any pictures.
The above photo is of a restuarant on the shores of the Nakki lake. It’s not a floating restaurant but looks like one from the vantage point it was taken from. More technical information (click on Image Info) about this photo at my Photoblog Lens.
