Memories



uhhhhhh.....for last week or two haven't written any post......reason behind schedule was quite hectic.....today morning only returned back from home-town.
though this time also it was a week-end trip.....but those serpentine roads,deep valleys,mighty mountains,chilling wind and a lot more things brought back some nostalgic moments of childhood days......and despite being tiresome gave sense
of déjà vu..........Yesterday while roaming around the famous Mall-Road was trying to find any friend of mine with whom i can share some golden moments..........
This city Nainital is really different.......It's scenic beauty,it's culture,it's people.....Awesome.
Some fact's abt. Nainital...

1. The city Nainital got its name upon the famous goddess Naini Devi.........It is believed that Lord Shiva, gone berserk after the death of his consort Sati, strode the earth like a colossus, with Sati’s half-charred body over one shoulder. As he passed over the lake, Sati’s left eye dropped there. The place was sanctified as the home of the Goddess Naina Devi (from naina, meaning eye).Naini Devi Temple is one of the 64 Shakti Peeths.

2. P. Barron, a british trader in sugar from Shahjahanpur and an intrepid traveler discovered Nainital in 1839.

3. Lakes around Nainital : Bhimtal,Naukutchia Tal,Sat Tal.
