There is a garden called Company Garden in Priyankraj, that is my hometown. That garden is a huge one which is well maintained by the government but at the same time carries a historical importance in the country. Chandrashekhar Azad, who was one of the freedom fighters of the country, had sacrificed his life in that garden. There is a memorial in his name, there is a statue for the same and it creates a great historical impact on the country. It also brings a historical value to the city as well. Besides historical importance, it is just beautiful to roam around in the garden, there is a huge walking track, there is a commendable jogging track as well. There is an open air gym, there is a museum. I think you can spend the entire day in the garden without getting bored. There is something to do for everyone there, be it a senior citizen, be it a child, be it a youngster, you will see all kind of people doing different activities. People start visiting the place from early in the morning till 6 or 7 in the evening, and after that the place closes because it is a huge place and safety becomes a concern because it cannot be regulated after it is dark. There is a huge sports complex as well within the garden, you will see a lot of young people training themselves for cricket, tennis, badminton. Plenty of adults are walking around early in the morning, even in the evening. There are athletes training themselves in the jogging track. I just love visiting there with my parents.

Follow up questions


What activities do you enjoy the most in Company Garden?
I particularly enjoy jogging on the track and spending time in the open-air gym. It's a great way to stay active while enjoying the beautiful surroundings. I also love exploring the museum to learn more about the history of the place.

How does visiting the garden with your parents differ from going with friends?
When I visit with my parents, we tend to have more relaxed conversations and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. With friends, it's more about engaging in activities like playing sports or jogging together, which adds a fun and energetic vibe to the visit.

What other historical places are there in your hometown?
Apart from Company Garden, there are several historical sites like the old fort and the memorial of another freedom fighter. These places also reflect the rich history of Priyankraj and are worth visiting for their cultural significance.

Answer

It Ends With Us is a book I read recently. It's by the author Colleen Hoare. It's mainly a story about two teenagers, Atlas and Lily, and how they just handle their life going through high school, adolescence, and just domestic violence at home. Both of them come from very, very different families. However, they have one common determining factor between them, which is domestic violence. The abuse that they've seen their moms go through is just insane, and they connect through that on a different level. They're actually in the same high school, but they never speak to each other until Atlas actually crashes into an empty house next to Lily's villa. When Atlas is homeless and he doesn't have anywhere to go, he just comes and breaks into the house next to Lily's, and Lily helps him with all the daily necessities like clothes and food, medicines and stuff. Furthermore, their friendship blossoms into love, but it doesn't really fructify as Atlas has to leave. This book really gave me a lot of knowledge about domestic abuse and how to deal with it.

There are not many places that I visit in Mumbai, but when I do, it's definitely Elephanta Caves. It is on an island near Mumbai. I've gone there a couple of times with my family and my friends as well. I find it quite beautiful and the scenery there is quite breathtaking.

There is time restriction there, I guess from the first ferry, it's from morning 7 o'clock and the last one from Elephanta is around 7-ish in the evening. It is a beautiful place to go to and there are monkeys there as well and I love the travelling as well because going by boat, sitting on the upper deck is definitely my favourite part and just watching over the ocean, it is quite wonderful to see.

Like everyone, I also want to get away from the hustle bustle of living in a metropolitan city. I live in a regular metro city, which is Bangalore, but the luxury that it offers is that it is surrounded by wonderful places that are so close to nature. To be able to get away from the hustle and hard-working city that we live in and be so close to nature is so relaxing. I, with my family and friends, like to travel to the nearby hill stations that surround us and one of those hill stations is Nandi Hills. This hill station is only 4 hours away from my house and the best way to get there is waking up early in the morning and going on a drive. There's just something about being secluded from the city, the vehicles and the noise that is found in nature and is so relaxing to a person. The trip itself is so beautiful, surrounded by scenery and the wind just changes and the cool breeze touching your face, it makes you feel truly relaxed. When you get on top of the hill, you can see the city and the nature around you and you're above the clouds and seeing the sun and this scene is not something that you can replicate in your day-to-day life. When you get the chance to get away from your daily work and experience this, it really brings you closer to nature and appreciate life. I love to travel and having this kind of facility to travel to a nearby location that offers such serene peace is wonderful.

Follow up questions


What activities do you enjoy doing at Nandi Hills?
At Nandi Hills, I love hiking, taking photographs of the stunning landscapes, and enjoying picnics with my family and friends. The fresh air and beautiful views make every activity enjoyable. We often explore the trails and sometimes even do some bird watching.

How often do you visit Nandi Hills?
I try to visit Nandi Hills at least once every few months, especially during the weekends or holidays. It's a great escape from the city, and each visit feels refreshing. The changing seasons also offer different experiences, making each trip unique.

What other places near Bangalore do you recommend?
Apart from Nandi Hills, I recommend visiting places like Coorg for its coffee plantations, Chikmagalur for its scenic beauty, and Mysore for its rich culture and history. Each of these places offers a unique experience and is perfect for a weekend getaway.

One of my favorite places to visit in my hometown is Tashi Chezong, located in Thimphu, the capital of Bhutan. It is a large and beautiful fortress that serves as both a religious and administrative center. The zone stands out from other places because of its impressive architecture, rich history, and sense of peace it offers. What makes Tashi Chezong unique is its blend of tradition and modernity. It is not only the office of the king and the government, but also a spiritual place with beautiful temples and courtyards. The structure is built in a classic Bhutanese style, with intricate woodwork and whitewashed walls, which makes it visually stunning. Whenever I visit my parents or friends, we usually explore vast courtyards, admire the artwork, and sometimes attend religious festivals like Thimphu Tsechu. During the festival, the zone comes alive with colorful performances, masked dances, and a joyful crowd. I enjoy visiting Tashi Chezong because it offers a calm and meaningful experience. The place gives me a sense of pride in my culture and history. Additionally, spending time there with loved ones allows me to share stories, learn more about my country's traditions, and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Whether it's during the festival or on a quiet evening, every visit feels special and memorable.

Follow up questions


What other historical places do you enjoy visiting in your city?

How do you think Tashi Chezong impacts the local community?
Tashi Chezong plays a vital role in the local community by being a center for cultural events and festivals. It brings people together, fosters a sense of belonging, and helps preserve our traditions. The fortress also attracts tourists, which boosts the local economy.

What activities do you enjoy doing at Tashi Chezong besides attending festivals?

So national market is a place where there are these huge number of, there are a huge number of shops that sell you a plethora of things and these shops take up almost 4-5 roads, connecting roads and it is a huge market place.

It initially started off with us going there to buy clothes because they have a variety and unique selection of clothing at a much cheaper price and that is how the tradition of going there on or before our birthdays started.

Sriraja temple in my hometown is very famous in the locality. It brings a great heritage along with it. It is 2000 year old temple founded by King Shah Jahan. People believe that the God in the temple is so powerful that anything you ask for is granted. It is quite famous even in the neighboring cities. People from other cities also come to the temple to seek the blessings of the God. We visit the temple whenever there is a festival or any special occasion such as birthdays or home warming ceremonies. We seek blessings from the God.

People start visiting the place from early in the morning till 6 or 7 in the evening, and after that the place closes because it is a huge place and safety becomes a concern because it cannot be regulated after it is dark. There is a huge sports complex as well within the garden, you will see a lot of young people training themselves for cricket, tennis, badminton.

One of the places that I really like visiting is Robbers Cave. So Robbers Cave is a beautiful rock cut cave which is situated amidst the forest. It has a beautiful lake bypassing it. It boasts of beautiful nature, variety of fish as well as eateries right outside. I enjoy visiting that place with my boyfriend and since we have a lot of childhood memories associated to that place, I visited Robbers Cave last in July and I visited that place about once every three months. It's great if a person is looking for a break, relaxing aboard amidst nature. It really helps you to focus on yourself. It's a very beautiful, peaceful place where people usually go to relax, to make place amidst the serene nature, however, it can get really crowded during peak season which is spring, hence it is recommended to book it through a consultant. Robbers Cave has a variety of trees, different types of rocks and a lot of natural reserves. The food is what adds to the greatness of that place. We also enjoy clicking a lot of pictures.

A place in my city which is very different from other places and I enjoy visiting with my parents and my friends is Deer Park situated in Hauz Khas, New Delhi. Deer Park, as the name suggests, is full of deers and beautiful lakes. The Hauz Khas Park is famous for its flora and fauna, the mesmerizing beauty, the small small forts, the garden is huge, there are many monkeys, many deers present, the sun is always bright, it is on your head and the wind is cushioning through your ears and your face. Hauz Khas Park is a very beautiful park situated in the center of New Delhi and it is perfect for everyone, for all the age group. I recently visited this park with my friends and my family and it was a very beautiful time to be alive. Moreover, the park is very neat and clean and has a lot of visitors present and it has own spaces for bench, for open gym, a small fort to visit along with the park. You can sightsee birds, swans, deer, you can feed the deers with peas. One thing I don't like about the park is definitely the timings of the park because you can't visit the park after 6pm because it gets night and as the wildlife is present, so it can be dangerous for normal human citizens too. As a result, the park gets closed at 7pm and I absolutely hate the idea of closing a public park because there is no freedom to walk in the park and when you close the park, there is a chance of bad things happening inside the park which does happen.

Me and my friends usually gather around, chill and when we go out for lunch, it is our go-to place for us. The ambience and the cozy environment, the friendly staff and the unique taste gives us a really good experience and we really do create a really good memories when we visit there. Moreover, talking about the location, it is really centrally located for us, for both of our friends and for me, to visit there is a very easy task for us. Moreover, the food that they use for preparation has a very unique taste. It gives us a sense of the Arabian culture that they possess to display to us and also talking about the affordability, the prices are also very reasonable and we really enjoy visiting there.
