Trip to Delhi & Noida

My first personal & peacefull visit to Delhi & Noida is for attending a great function in our family. Ms Sri Suda Priya born on Feb 17, 2012 is a daughter of Mr. Sivasankar and Ms. Bhuvana my brother in law and my sister. Its a great enjoyment for me to travel in Spice Jet and flied through Mumbai and reached Delhi. Its a great hospitality provided by airhostess and they are pretty good looking as well. While travelling we had Veg manchurian and a coffee which was highly delicious. We are quite afraid while we are landing at Delhi. There is no partiality for any passengers, all passengers are welcomed by the Airhostess by wishing welcome sir, hi, hello etc and at the time of leaving the flight all passengers are said thank you by the crew members which was quite surprising for me since its my first flight for my life time. I was pretty surprised that we are living in a country were there are more number of people travel by flight very causually. Diffrent type of people, dress code, their body launguage gave us a diffrent exposure while travelling. While travelling we also enjoyed reading Spice jet travel magazine which contains many tourism info, menu and services offered by Spice and also some advertisements etc., After getting landed in Indira Ghandhi National Airport my brother in law Mr. Selvam received us and we are surprised to see the Indira Ghandhi National Airport, Domestic Terminal, New Delhi. Its a huge bulding, well furnished interiors, tightly packed up with security guards, centralised air conditioned including lavatories. We saw a huge taxi wallas were waiting and it is a prepaid system to streamline the crowd. We took a taxi to Noida (Sector D-51). While we are going all vehicles are running like fourmula one. Metal roads stress the drivers to press the acclerators in full swing. Clear cut signals, widened roads, lot of trees in road side to minimize pollution all these gave us a pleasent journey. We enjoyed the whole 28 kilometer from Airport. While entering inside Sector D-51 we were shocked to see there are more four wheelers. Every house have minimum a car and maximum two cars. We thought Noida is a huge potential area.
Akshardam - One of the best temple I visited in my life time is Akshardam. The temple was constructed in a large area and style of construction is awesome. Very huge Satyanarayana idol is kept and its sourrounding was done with magnificent interiors. Think it was builded for more than 5 years. We enjoyed the plants which was planted in the corners of the compound and all the crowds were checked properly and people are not allowed to take cell phones, purses, cameras etc., the people should go through a strict frisking task only people are allowed to enter inside the temple. Hindus, Christians, Muslims and people from other religion also visited this temple since it also attracts more tourist from abroad also. Well equipped canteen is inside to serve the needs of the people and childrens who are visiting this temple. We went and saw the movie and drammas done by robo's (dramma related to the story of Swami Satyanarayana).After visiting all those stories we went a boar riding inside the temple and it was mind blowing. They spent lavishly for this boat riding which explains the diffrent people and their professional practice in ancient times like cobblers, jewellers, astrologers, doctors, engieners and many professionals. It took more than 20 mins to reach the place were we started. During that boat ride, light settings was really good. After that we enjoyed one more creative show called water show. A group of people who sits (Square shape) to watch the water show which will happen in the middle of the temple. Diffrent colours, water will push up and come back to its orginal place. The water will be bumped upwards and simutaneusly some lights in the bottom will blink while the water will get changed in variety of colours which gives a great attraction since its a night time. More than half an hour this water show will go on. We enjoyed the show very much. People who really wanted to visit a holy place with a good entertainment they can visit Akshardam.
On next day afternoon, we visited a good mall which is located in the heart of the city named Great India Place. Were there are lot of youth people and old people in youth dress were roaming inside this mall. Mall is really bright and lot of shops were there. In front of the mall, there were huge space were the couples and college students (lovers) were spending their time which attracts the people while they are entering the mall. All type of shops were there like Life style, Pantaloon, Baskin & Robbins, food court in the top floor, white good stores, mobile shops, blackberry showroom etc., Along with these shops there is a parlour Healing Touch was also located in this mall. Were there ladies with tight t shirt and jeans were sitting inside with welcoming smile to attract the men & women crowd which gives a diffrent feel which make everyone to act diffrent. Huge car parking & bike parking evening lazy climate made us to remember those moments memorable.
After visiting Great India Place, we visited Spice Mall one of the noted place in Noida. We enjoyed a great time and left Delhi and landed safe in Coimbatore on March 19, 2012.
