My family had been to Sparsa resorts, thiruvannamalai last weekend. A visit is must to this place because, sometimes it important to be away from huzzles and buzzles of the city and even more important to grab a book close to your heart and read it peacefully.
I spent two nights and 3 days at the resort and this was my routine.
Wake up to listen to suprabhatham ringing in your ears.
Milk the cow and a quick bath.
Yoga master would be waiting for you followed by a rich breakfast(Dosa, Idly, Porridge, Bread, Upma, Vada and what not!)
Visit the famous temple near by or Spend some time in the swimming pool.
Play indoor games like carroms, table tennis or go for even traditional pallanguzhi!
A quick lunch followed by a quick nap!
Pot making, Kili jyotsyam, Bullock cart ride and a ride on an old Lamby!
A dip in the swimming pool to cool yourself!
Listen to classical music live
Dinner time and crash to bed.
Pros:
Excellent food(Please taste the butter milk being provided there!)
Excellent staff and you get nothing lower than the best treatment!
Learn Yoga
A chance to enjoy whatever our parents did during their childhood
Good library and internet facility
Cons:
No smoking, no drinking - though not a problem for me. You dont go to thiruvannamalai to booze, right.
Cost is around 3200 rupees per night!
I thank and recomend Sparsa to everybody who wants to spend the time together with family and experience old Tamil culture!
