high point near Karnataka University

This is high point has a commanding view of the western, southern and eastern sides. On it's northern side is the university campus. This curvy road literally slides down towards Dharwad-Hubballi bypass road and Masur village.

The road sliding down towards Masur and NH48 highway. This spot is frequented by people early morning for walking or running, and in the evening for sunsets.

Here are a few overhead shots taken with DJI Mini 2 at a newly formed housing layout close to IIIT, Dharwad. The layout has a garden area with a road around it. Whoever planned this has a superb imagination.

selfie with Chimpu

This sweet selfie painting has been done recently at the renovated Dharwad railway station. I don't think many people have seen this yet. Surely this would be a hit with youngsters.
