In the Bhagwan Mahaveer Sanctuary at the border between Goa and Karnataka, where the Mandovi River tumbles from the Deccan plateau, is a foaming cascade whose name means 'ocean of milk', which plunges into a tarn of irresistably cool water.
Here is Phespirit in that very tarn.
The region around Hampi is strewn with old sacred sites from the Vijayanagara empire. Of these, the most impressive living temple is the Virupaksha temple.
This is the view beside its inner sanctum.
There are many enticing places from which to admire a fine sunset at Hampi. Phespirit found himself on top of Malayavanta Hill.
A Shiva shrine stands at its summit.
