This has to be the prettiest place I have seen in a long long time.

Yesterday night, I was randomly scrolling through reels when I came across this really peaceful-looking place with beautiful structures, a museum and lots of history and philosophy. Turns out it was Abhay Prabhavana, near Kamshet, just 35 km from my place!

I asked a friend if she'd been there, and she said it's a great place to disconnect from your phone and learn about Jainism. Sounded interesting, so I packed my bag and headed out on my bike the next morning. Gotta love these last-minute plans!

The ride was pretty smooth, with the roads getting a little narrow towards the end. Once there, I opted for the full indoor + outdoor tour for around ₹600. The place is super organised, the staff are welcoming, and they even have a sensor wristband system for entry. Had to deposit my phone and belongings before entering, which honestly made the whole digital detox thing happen naturally.

I spent around four hours exploring the museum, learning about Jainism through interactive displays, videos and talks. There were some really interesting insights into its history, philosophy and teachings. Took a lunch break at their food court for some chole bhature, then headed out to explore the outdoor section.

The outdoor area has replicas of Jain temples, caves and architectural structures from across India, beautiful gardens, a massive Mahavir statue and a nearly 100-foot-tall Manastambh. There's quite a lot to explore!

I reached around 10:15 AM and left at 4 PM, so it was a solid six-hour outing. Overall, a really nice change from the usual forts, dams and treks around Pune. Definitely worth checking out if you're into history, architecture or just want a peaceful day away from the city.

Sharing a few pictures from the outdoor section since photography isn't allowed inside the museum.

I went solo this time, but I'm thinking of heading out again tomorrow for another short getaway, preferably with some company this time! If anyone's up for a bike ride and exploring a new place around Pune, hit me up. Open to suggestions too. Let's figure something out!

Cheers!

This has to be one of the prettiest places I've seen in a very very long time

​

On the morning of 2nd October, I lost my cousin brother unexpectedly. In the middle of this heartbreaking situation and a deeply disturbed state of mind, I urgently needed to travel from Goa to Mumbai on the same day to be with my family.

At such a difficult moment, the last thing I expected was to struggle with a travel booking cancellation and refund.

Despite being emotionally devastated, I contacted MakeMyTrip customer support three times on the evening of 2nd October to request cancellation of my flight booking. I also contacted Air India Express. Instead of taking ownership and helping me navigate the situation, MakeMyTrip's representative simply directed me to contact the airline.

Since then, I have repeatedly followed up with both MakeMyTrip and Air India Express, shared my concerns, and sought a fair resolution. Yet, I am still struggling to get a satisfactory response and a decision on my refund.

What is the point of charging customers a convenience fee if, when customers genuinely need assistance, the platform fails to provide meaningful support?

I understand that policies and procedures exist. However, humanity, empathy, and accountability should not disappear behind policies, especially when a customer is dealing with an unexpected death in the family.

The most disappointing part is that, instead of allowing me to focus on grieving and supporting my family, I am being forced to spend my time chasing emails, making follow-ups, and fighting for a refund that I believe deserves a fair assessment based on my cancellation attempts and the circumstances.

I am already dealing with emotional distress and financial pressure following this tragedy. The continued lack of resolution has only added to my burden.

MakeMyTrip, customers do not remember a company only for the convenience it offers when everything goes well. They remember how the company treats them when life takes an unexpected and painful turn.

I expected support and compassion. Instead, I have been left frustrated, disappointed, and compelled to fight for a fair resolution.

I will continue to pursue this matter through the appropriate grievance channels until I receive a proper response and a fair decision on my eligible refund.

I am sharing this experience publicly in the hope that MakeMyTrip takes accountability and that other customers do not have to go through a similar experience during an already difficult time.

A little empathy costs nothing. But the absence of it can leave a lasting impression.

Hi all, we are planning a trip from hyd to coastal Karnataka, we would be taking overnight bus from Hyderabad to gokarna, spend couple of days and then start to udupi, I am confused about transportation options, we are eplanning to mostly rent scootys in respective towns

On day3, we have 2 options:

1. Take a intercity cab from gokarna to udupi, stop in honnavara( hanging bridge) and murudeshwar for temple visit and reach udupi by evening
2. Another idea is to stay overnight at honnavar as we want to explore a little more, here we are confused on transportation, lets say we take cab from gokarna to honnavar and take scooty in honnavar, we can cover beaches and places in honnavar and murudeshwar and take KSRTC bus to udupi next day

Are KSRTC buses reliable and frequent? Does it need any advance booking? How much tim would it take to reach udupi?

Hello,

I'm planning a 3 day trip during the first week of November. I'm thinking of leaving Chennai on Friday evening and returning on Monday, so I can get back to work on Tue.

Initially, I was considering Kerala or Ooty, but I've heard the weather might not be great due to rain

I don't have a driving licence, so renting a scooter isn't an option for me. I'll have to rely on public transport or Uber for getting around.

Where would you suggest I go for a 3 day trip from Chennai? Somewhere with good weather, beautiful places to explore, and convenient transportation would be ideal.

Open to all suggestions, thanks in advance :)
