Narmada Canal on Halol highway
Hello all!
Here we are. We are going to take you to the very nearby place from Vadodara. We have started our Sunday routine of wilderness from here. This place is nothing like the wild, but still, it’s close to nature. And as they say, nature is there in the eyes of the spectator.
It’s the central Narmada canal on the Halol Highway, just 35 km from Baroda and 35 minutes easy drive. We just went along the canal by car, and parked the car on the side. And took off walking. Walking along the roads and then walking into the roadside fields…Talking, laughing, dancing, and discussing…
We went there again with friends and family. And every time canal has different colors and different emotions for us…Be it pleasant mornings or calm evenings…It’s a happy and comfortable place for us…We had fed fish in the canal there and dogs on the street. We read our books there, and we enjoyed our morning tea there. We had small delicious suppers there, and we had our first trail walks there. And one of those days was our favorite poet Shel Silverstein’s birthday.
I am sure you all must have passed through this highway several times. Now next time, let’s spare an hour or a half. See this beautiful canal and think about its benefit to the people on the way. Who would have believed that the Narmada, hopping and passing happily among the hills of Vindhya and Satpura, would extend its tributaries to Rajasthan? It’s true that while making the Sardar Sarovar dam, there must be the loss of many villages. But their libation is not lost. They must be getting the blessing of many from Kutch to Saurashtra to Rajasthan, and that’s what I feel when I come here. I feel these emotions of sacrifice and these emotions of boons, of thousands and lakhs of people.
Are you planning to go there for just some quiet family time? Jump in the car and have fun!!!
