Distance: 120kms from Hyderabad.
Places to see: The Pocharam Wild life and Bird Sanctuary are the two things any nature lover would like to see, but apart from these places there is a very huge Church which falls under the Medak Dist. In order to visit the wildlife sanctuary or the bird sanctuary you would need to take approval from the forest officer. Another thing which one must see and enjoy the feeling is the super old house which is known as the Inspection Bungalow. It’s a house which was built in the year 1418A.D. but it is still in pretty good condition.
It’s my Bhabhi who discovered the place of course from Internet and then we planned on visiting this place in the next coming weekend. I started googling the route and my brother checked on mapmyindia and finally we found the route it was a pretty clean and straight route. We started around 5o’clock in the morning on a Sunday and to our surprise we were there in Medak in 2hrs though we drove pretty slowly and we were very happy about that. The people there unfortunately couldn’t guide us to any inspection bungalows or something but whatever we had as printouts from google map we started moving further finally we reached the destination.
Few things to keep in mind when you go there:
• On the way you will find Narsapur forest and in my last few trips I have encountered some things like people sleeping on the road at night, you might feel you should help them but a strong suggestion DO NOT GET OFF FROM THE CAR, as this can be a false prank and you might be attacked.
• Try to keep your speed slow when driving through the forest though the roads are amazing and you will feel likely to speed up but it’s for the safety of the animals in the forest and always stop whenever you see some animal crossing the road. I have encountered few and those were real treat to your eyes.
• The route to the inspection bungalow is off track from the mail road you have a very small signboard showing the direction to the Inspection bungalow follow that it’s a village route and It will take you to the Inspection Bungalow.
• In the inspection Bungalow you have lots of monkeys and I have seen few snakes Just be careful always remember if you do not harm them they won’t hurt you.
So.. back to my experience …. We reached the inspection bungalow around 7:45AM. It was a beautiful morning lots of birds chirping sound of water and just the peace you look for when u go for an outing. We had some stuff with us to make tea my mom and dad started doing that while we (me my brother and bhabhi) started exploring the place. The view from the house is awesome you can actually see the islands I always wanted to and I still want to go to that place with a boat with me so that I can do some boating out there. Anyways so we got in the water it was amazing absolutely crystal clean. It was FUN !!! then mom and dad joined and after we got off the water we played for sometime ventured the house and then we started way back home. This was the first time when I went there. I went there once with a very good friend of mine it is still the most memorable trip for me. Then I went with Avik .. and then there is this trip in which I lost my car key in the DAM (till now the most hectic and tiresome trip..)
It’s a place which is 2and half hours away from the city and a place where you would just want a bottle of wine and the sketchbook..
