The Maremma Region in Southern Tuscany
Maremma is a large area in Tuscany which is a perfect microcosm of  a variety of landscapes: blue sea, long beaches, black rocks, hills covered with woods, marshes and flat lands, green hills and natural thermal baths. And of course many typical food products.

It’s a timeless region with ancient roots, where the Etruscan and the Roman civilizations flourished for centuries, leaving behind important traces.

Vagamon

Vagamon

Vagamon is a hill station located on the Idukki border, near the Idukki Wildlife Sanctuary.  It has a cool climate with the temperature between 10 and 23 °C during a summer midday. It is situated 1,100 metres above sea level.

Vagamon was discovered by the British who found the place ideal for tea plantations and they were followed by Christian missionaries

The National Geographic has listed Vagamon on their directory of the “50 most attractive places to visit in India”

Still untouched by commercialisation, the quiet town with its scenic valleys, beautiful green meadows, enchanting pine forests, mists, fogs, tea estates, waterfalls with the overall greenery is a real paradise of tranquility and ideal for reflection. The landscape is mostly hilly bald with green meadows. Vagamon is also home to a large variety of flowers and orchids.

Monkey Temple, Jaipur

Galta Temple or Monkey Temple, Jaipur

The Galta Temple or Monkey Temple in Jaipur is an ancient pilgrimage centre lying beyond the gardens amidst low hills. Temples, pavilions and holy kunds (natural spring and water tanks) along with lush landscape make it a delightful spot.

Getting to this temple is rather an adventure but it’s completely worth the effort. This is part of a larger temple complex, which also has three sacred pools of water. One of the pools has been taken over by thousands of monkeys that congregate there to swim and bathe. They’re generally friendly and love to be fed.
