My Summer Trip to Abha
My Summer Trip to Abha
During my Eid holidays we visited Abha [KSA].Abha is about 2,200 meters above sea level. It is the capital of Asir province. The trip distance from Dammam to Abha was about 1450 kms. It was a journey from 47 C to 15 C. The interesting side of our trip was my grandparents also came along with us. The journey to Abha was very long. We started the journey At 5:00 AM and reached Khamis Mushayt at 7:00 PM. The car was driven by my dad; of course he is an expert driver which gave us enough confidence during the trip. Khamis Mushayt was 25 km away from Abha. The second day we scheduled to visit Al Habalah Mountain. Al Habalah is one of the famous tourist spots in Abha and also known as Hanged village. It is green with beautiful trees. We parked our car on top of Habalah. Then a cable car took us down to the Hanged village. We stayed there for 4 hrs in order to see, explore and enjoy the entire area. In the afternoon we went to see the famous 11 tunnels in Abha – Makkah route. The tunnel starts from the top of the mountain and ends the valley when we reach down. After our tunnel journey we all went back to our hotel in Khamis Mushayt for rest and sleep. The third day we started our journey to Al Saudah, the highest mountain in KSA.It is about 10,000 feet high from the sea level and it is 75 kms away from Abha. There is a cable car service from top of Al Saudah to 10,000 feet below. We enjoyed the cable car service. When we reached down, there we could explore the area. It was very beautiful with natural scenery. We returned through the route down town of Saudah with dangerous hair pin curves. This route would take us back to our hotel. On the way we saw many farms with tasty fruits. The fourth day we saw Abha dam which holds 2.13 million cubic meters of water. There was a dolphin show near to the dam. At night we visited and explored the Green Mountain. It is surrounded by very attractive green lights. There is a cable car service available to

    The first time I visited Mexico was also the first time I went scuba diving and it was a memory I will never forget. This scuba diving experience was far different that what I expected.

    In the “ White man’s burden” and “ The Recessional” Kipling illustrates the concept of empire by claiming that it is the duty or burden of white men to civilize, educate and religiously higher the non whites. Such concept is very unacceptable due to the fact that one may think they are higher than another civilization where such concept of view still exists today.…

    The second field trip for Batch No: 1 on 30.01.2013 was to a water fall named “Arbi water-falls”. Our bus left us on the top of the plateau of Dasrath Nagar from where we had to walk down the steep slope of the plateau to get to the fields. We had to cross a swift stream of water which was very transparent and cold. We walked through the dykes, sort of no-man’s land made out of mud marking the boundary of two fields. Adjacent to the farmer’s house, which our sir described to over a hundred years old, was a well and a temple which was a special temple as there were big trees and people pray lord Vishnu in his cobra incarnation. It was also said to us that the people over there worship ‘Nagaraj’. We crossed a large number of bamboo barricades to visit the surrounding paddy fields, anywhere my eyes went I could only see greenery spread.…

    The very next morning we decided to leave for a nearby waterfall. I took the responsibility to pack our snacks and dry fruits. We left around 8 o’clock in the morning. It was sunny and humid, so we decided to just rest and start out early the following morning. We went on the jeep, which was named by the local as “Moon Car”. The bumpy roads and the strong wind made us feel that we were dancing with the breeze. We were very close to the downstream of the fall when we saw a man preparing to do his bungee jump. The man had dropped his coat over the side of the hill and we all watched as it fell and swirled around in the whirlpool. After that we went to “Subholong”, it is one of the small villages in the south eastern region of Bangladesh which has its own waterfall.…

    My first experience to this place became really memorable and joy full experience with my friends and teachers. The first day we reached Pokhara in the evening at around 5 o’clock, so, we went to Fewa Lake to enjoy the excellent view of sunset. Thereafter, some went for boating, some just roam around, some went to restaurants and some of us chose to enjoy ride on bicycle. We rent only one bike for three of us Chadani, Jyoti and me. Without knowing time, since it started to become dark, getting excited, we rented for an hour. At first, I was not confident to ride by myself so, Chadani, my friend gave me a ride, then I tried by myself with her help. And the funny part was I could handle it on my own. I felt like, “Hurrah, I can ride on my own.” The bike was really comfortable. As there was only one we rotated among us one by one. As it was already getting late for dinner, we could not make for 1 hour and returned to hotel for dinner as we have to be there by the given time.…

    That morning, we equipped ourselves with the necessary camping gear and sufficient food which could last us for two days. Then, we got onto our motorcycles and made a beeline for our destination. When we reached there, we parked our motorcycles under a big shady tree. After that, we began to climb Mount Ophir (Gunung Ledang). During our ascent, the steep mountain drained us of our energy. Before dark, we reached a picturesque waterfall and decided to camp there for the night.…

    a visit to a hill station

    'A Visit to hill a Station' is an exciting experience. It gives a chance to live in the lap of Nature. In direct touch of Nature we can feel a divine peace and calmness in mind. It makes us feel to be lucky among millions who are over busy in world by affairs. India is a hot country. It is terribly hot during the months of May and June. The northern plains of India are very hot in these months. Hence a trip to some hill station is always tempting. Everybody likes to go somewhere in the lap of Nature to keep himself/herself away from the intense heat of the plains. But those who have money only they go to hills to enjoy their time whole heartedly. The hills not only give relief from heat but are also useful for health. God seems to smile through the beautiful and lovely scenes of Nature. In Northern India there are many hill stations like Nainital, Shimla and Mussourie etc. I had a great desire to visit Shimla. So, I with my friends, made a program to spend summer at Shimla. We reached Shimla in the morning. We went there in the month of June by bus.We made arrangements for our stay in a private house. It was on the top of the hill. The surroundings were very charming. We could see the beauty of Nature and hills; we could also see the lower portion of Shimla from there. We arranged a servant there. He swept the house and prepared tea for us. We had everything for cooking with us. We stayed at Shimla for ten days. We took a guide. After taking breakfast, we used to set out on sight-seeing. We came back at 2 p.m. and took lunch. The servant was a good cook. The pure air and greenery of the hills made us fresh. We had heard that rainy days of Shimla are more enjoyable. Hence we took pleasure of showers when it rained one day or two. It made us feel sensations of deeper joy. We enjoyed getting drenched. We came back, changed our clothes and took coffee. Shimla attracts a number of tourists due to its natural beauty. The Mall Road of Shimla and Jhaku hills are always…
