Dubare is an Elephant training camp on the banks of the River Cauvery. Elephants for the spectacular Mysore Dussera festival are trained here. The most fun activities here are giving a bath to some of the trained elephants and then feeding them!
I cannot think of many better ideas to spend the weekend than coming to Dubare Elephant Camp and interacting with Elephants.
India’s first Butterfly Park is located in Bannerghatta area of Bangalore. It has a lovely tropical setting with a host of plants and shrubs to attract butterflies. Children and the young at heart will love the surreal settings which include an artificial waterfall as well. The museum and Audio visual show on butterflies takes you on a captivating journey back in time to trace the origin of butterflies and how the fate of man and butterflies are interlinked.
There are some encounters with Mother Nature that last a lifetime. Watching a Whale burst through water’s surface is one such incredible experience. The province of Quebec in Canada is one of the best places on Earth for Whale Watching. Head towards the St Lawrence River which is teeming with 13 species of Whales attracted by shellfish. Go get a life!
Kenya is home to not one, but two of the greatest spectacles of the natural world. Witness millions of Fuchsia-pink flamingo flocking to feed on the teeming algae of alkaline waters of Lake Nakuru. The pulsing pink swathe of life carpeting the waters is one of the most popular images of Kenya. Masai Mara National Park is the other theatre where Wildebeest, Zebra and Thomson's gazelle undertake the Great Migration from the Serengeti Plains. And when you decide to travel here, you will be following a tradition dating back thousands of years followed by the Phoenicians, the Romans, the Chinese, the ancient Greeks and the Arabs!
