Usually we people at Bangalore always think of going out on weekends instead of driving around in the same traffic which we do 5 days a week. [roll]

I was was just going though a FB post by a friend who had been to this place few weeks ago.

Next instance was, "why dont we drive there"... So Sunday was well spent.
A nice place with very few people. Many of them aren't aware of this place.

Though its not so clean (not that bad too), but you can enjoy the weather.

Its after Hassan, I would suggest you use your GPS, I was lost and had to do offroading. [lol].

We left our home at Kengeri Main Rd and took Nice road to tumkur rd, later Bangalore- Hassan rd. Road is nice, you can happy cruise at triple digit speeds.

While coming back we covered Belur And Halebidu. Hassan to Belur road is bad. A strech of 20 kms is under construction. Later to Halebidu roads are fine. We then took Arsikere - Tiptur - Tumkur - Bangalore route, roads are good.

I am not good at writing travel logs, [frustration] this was just to provide info about this place.

Here is the location details for you.

Varun,Do share a little bit more about this church and amenities available on the way....What else is there? An old dilapidated Church, a drive below a bridge, a road with very less traffic etc? How much time to reach the place? Safe place ?
