Hey People…back with my wandering…
Now u will think that what’s the connection of title to the wandering? But there is some connection…..
Well… Let’s first talk about Buddha & then we’ll discuss the title (I promise I won’t bore u…. :P)
Hyderabad has a really nice lake, named ‘Hussain Sagar’. It is famous as largest manmade lake in India. In the middle of this lake there is a huge statue of Lord Buddha.
The 16 meter tall, 350 tonne (approx.) monolithic Buddha statue is situated in the middle of the Hussain Sagar Lake, silhouetted against the sunset. It is made of white granite and is the largest statues in all over the world.
Apart from this statue, which indeed a great thing, Hussain Sagar has lots of amazing places. Like Lumbini Park, from where u catch the ferry ride to the statue, a really nice food court, etc.
Lumbini Park is just like some amusement park. They have this really beautiful Laser show, which was not working when we visited that because of the bomb blast which took place just 2 months before our visit. From here they have regular ferries to the middle of the lake which u can catch to visit the Buddha Statue.
So this is the story of Buddha… Now let’s have some coffee with him…
The cafeteria a.k.a. food court on the side of Lake has some really good places like Pizza Hut, Subway & my most favoutire Amore… Amore is a Gelato parlor & just like any other Gelato parlor this one too has some really nice flavors like cookie & cream, Ferraro Rocher, Dark Chocolate & some usual Sorebeto. Apart from that, they also serve really nice coffee. We visited this place twice, first day I just tried my usual flavor of Gelato (which I tried first time then) and on second day FIRST TIME IN MY WHOLE LIFE TILL THAT DAY, I tried a pure Espresso coffee. Yes (to those who know how crazy I get for an espresso) me too find it ‘YUCK’ on first sip & thought to give up. But I don’t know what was going on in my mind or in my heart I did finished that cup & that was the time I really got crazy for Espresso, which I still am…. May at that time Buddha was there, telling me go on it’s gonna be ur most favorite type of coffee… ;)
