Chikmagalur

Editor's Note

Located amidst the beautiful Baba Budan Hills, Chikmagalur never fails to surprise you. It is made of undulating hills, deep valleys, silver-waterfalls and beautiful coffee blossoms. Its natural treasures and easy accessibility make it one of the most-loved weekend getaways from Bangalore. True, it doesn't have too many hotels and restaurants, but it does have some of the best picnic spots, friendly locals, scenic treks and ancient temples. Visit the Raj Bhavan for its unique sunset scenes, the numerous coffee estates producing the world's best coffee and the Rose Garden for its undiscovered varieties of roses. This is a landscaped designed entirely by nature, so discover this artwork before the crowd does!
