Visit the Namdroling Monastery in Bylakuppe
Deep within the South India, the town of Bylakuppe is one of the largest Tibetan settlements in the world. The Namdroling Monastery situated here is home to nearly 5000 monks who spend their lives learning about Buddha's life and other tales from Tibetan mythology. Presided over by an 18 meters high gold-plated Buddha, the Golden Temple greets visitors with all its glory, while the colourful flags that flutter in the gentle breeze add to the enchanting experience and make one believe they are in Tibet. A prayer-session at the monastery is a must-see for every tourist. Sit and meditate as the hall reverberates with the resonating sounds of the gongs, drums and the chanting of the young novices.

Explore the Nagarhole National Park
A dense forest situated between Mysore plateau in Karnataka and the Nilgiri mountains of Tamil Nadu, the Nagarhole National Park, also called the Rajiv Gandhi National Park, is home to a staggering variety of wildlife species. One of Karnataka's best wildlife getaways, the park is set over a 640 square kilometers and is more appealing than the adjacent Bandipur National Park because of the fewer number of visitors it sees. Teeming with Asiatic elephants, spotted and barking deer, langurs, cheetals, gaurs, nilgais and over 270 species of birds, it makes for fantastic wildlife watching. Tourists can explore the park astride elephants, in open jeeps or a bus. The Nagarhole Park also features a dwindling number of Royal Bengal Tigers, although one has to be extremely lucky to spot the big cat.
