A DAY WELL SPENT IN BHOPAL

Yahan fizaein bhi jheeloon se guftagoo karti hain. Is shehar Ko Bhopal kehte hai.

To the times that hold our breaths, to the moments that you want to recreate, to the places that you want to explore and to the days when you want to knit the happiness maze. Life nowadays is running on a very rapid phase. Between the busy office hours or never-ending college and school projects, we all look for a day that can wash away all our tensions and tiredness and charge us with energy for the upcoming days.

Bhopal, a place where peace triumphs chaos and happiness prevails stress is a perfect city to enjoy quality time and spend a perfect day. If you are planning to have a break and go out to explore the city and make your day a perfect one, believe me, Manuabhan Tekri is the best place to start with. Seeing the sunrise from this place and mesmeric and alluring view of the city between beautiful hues of dawn will make you love this city even more. After spending some time over there you can go to old Bhopal and explore the older parts of the city. Taj -ul- Masajid, the largest mosque in India is something that will make you happy if are a spiritual person and even if you are not old Bhopal is never a bad idea because it serves the tastiest nonveg you will ever have. With narrow streets and traditional atmosphere, old Bhopal has its own charm.

After experiencing the warmth and charm of old Bhopal the best idea is to go to the newer parts of the city and enjoy your day. It is well said, “Anyone who tells you money can’t buy happiness doesn’t know where to shop”. Shopping is like a therapy and a perfect day can’t be perfect without shopping if you are a shopaholic and Newmarket is no less than a shoppers paradise for people who love to shop. It is Sarojini Nagar of Bhopal. From clothing, accessories, furnishing, food etc you can find each and everything over there. If you start exploring the market by 11:00 am, two to three hours must be sufficient and you shall be done with shopping by 2:00 pm.

Now the heat must be at peak and you must be tired after shopping. All you need at this point in time is a place with beautiful ambiance and lip-smacking food to enjoy a perfect lunch followed by some leisure time and most suitable place for the sake is the Upper Lake. The area near the Upper Lake has many restaurants, food stalls, and cafes that can provide you an amazing lunch. The joy of visiting your favorite restaurant and having your favorite food is ineffable. Winds and waves, Cafe Coffee Day etc are few cafes that you can visit.

By now it must be about 4:30 pm. The day is about to fall and the dusk has arrived. The whispering of the leaves is almost hushed. The sky has started to change the color and if there is something you must be doing in Bhopal at this time is sitting on the upper lake. The soft breeze, the hue of dusk, the smell of water and the view of the lake. The peace and bliss of this place will make your day a perfect one.
