Day 1: Banavasi Tour and Unchalli Falls
Plan The Unplanned presents Banavasi – The First Capital of Karnataka.
We all feed and learn from our Kisans!
India’s heart lies in its villages. Every rural community is steeped in folklore and indigenous craft. The traditional way of life will greatly enrich anyone’s energy. Deep into the roads from Sirsi, lies a small village with a bus stand being the only source of transportation for its people, pineapple the daily snack which the whole village rejoices on, milk freshly brewed from the buffalo every morning and different authentic cuisines at every point of time, all experiences that make one feel like a true Kannadiga.
Let us explore one of the most unseen and unexplored historical places in Karnataka.
The Kadambas were the first indigenous dynasty to use Kannada, the language of the soil, at an administrative leave in the history of Karnataka.
This is Banavasi – the oldest and the First Capital of Karnataka. It lies deep in the rainforests of the Western Ghats with the Varada river flowing around it on three sides.
Existing since 4000 BC, the period of Mahabharata, Banavasi was known as ‘Vanavasika’. Greek geographer Ptolemy mentioned Banavasi as ‘Banousi’ in his famous book in the 1st century A.D. It was called ‘Jayanthipura’ or ‘Vaijayanthi Pura’ during the Kadamba period in the early 4th century A.D. Huen Tsang the Chinese traveller-monk who was in India between 630-644 C.E, visited Konkanapura called Konkanapulo (referred in Chinese scripts) or Banavasi.
It’s an eco-tourism destination which is rustic and rural flavours, and you can look forward to real cultural experience while enjoying the beauty of nature.
The meal which we serve you comprises a wide range of fresh powders and chutneys made of lentils, chillies, tamarind, and oil cake with Rice / Millets. The food is made by local families. It is noncommercial and healthy.
Don’t forget to try the fresh Pineapples. The best Pineapples are grown in Banavasi.
