A Trip Of The Amazing City Diu

     

            So friends welcome back....Today I will share my amazing and thriller experience of 'DIU' journey in this post.

Introduction:-

          Diu, The city is a Union Territory of India. Diu is a historic city that was ruled by the Portuguese.The city was part of the Saurashtra region in ancient times and was an important port on the Arabian Sea in the Indian Ocean. If we start writing about the history of this city then we can write full blog so without wasting time we start our journey.....

Start Of My Journey:-


               Diu I went with my brothers. To reach Diu, one can now go to Una district by road. We went by road. But there is also a flight facility to get there. after reaching there, all of us want to visit the fort of Diu, so we drove straight to the fort as per our wish. There are many restaurants and hotels on the road so we decided to check-in. on the road so we don't need to keep Luggage together. 



       Now after check-in. We went to the castle. There is a lot to see so it takes more than 2 hours. There is also a very good location for a photo session in the fort. Even when we went there were many preweading shootings going on. This place is like a paradise for photo lovers. There are many things from the time of the old king like cannons, big doors, granaries, prisons, etc. There is a sea around the fort. That scene also looks very captivating








        There is also a lighthouse in the fort which is still in working condition. There you have to get permission to go upstairs in the lighthouse. There is a beautiful view from the top of the lighthouse. Above I have shared the photo of the lighthouse that I had taken in my camera.





  
         There is also a prison in the middle of the sea. There is also a prisoner who was recently released after serving his sentence. Special permission is required to visit the jail where the general public is not allowed to go. I have also shared a photo from there.






     

                                                                                            Then we went to the famous nagoa beach. It is a favorite destination of all travelers. The sea is a bit calm so it is fun to swim in it. We also enjoyed a lot there. If there was one thing that was most fun, it was adventurous sports. Later that day we visited a few churches and it was evening. Then we went back to the hotel. There is a lot of places to roam in Diu so we had to stay here for 2 days. But we don't know how those 2 days went by.








     Now we didn’t have to visit more places the next day. Now we were going to see Naida Caves. So as soon as we got up in the morning we had breakfast and went straight to Naida Caves. These caves are about 1km from the city. Which comes on hadmatiya road. Many movies have been shot in these caves. How these caves came to be is still a mystery. There is a beautiful view when the sun's rays enter the cave during the day. There are no entry fees to enter the cave. You are only allowed to enter the cave till 5:30 pm as the place becomes dark at night.






     Then we visited the INS Khukri monument which is located near chakratirth beach where it is known for its open amphitheater and sunset shots. Then there is the dinosaur park on the bay where kids have lot of fun to play.








           There are many other places worth visiting like Bird watching sanctuary, Sea Shell Museum, Summer House, Lovers Point. But then we went to some of them. All the photos I took from those places are shared in the gallery tab. If we go to see alcohol is not legal in Gujarat but legal in Diu this is also one reason for that many gujrati is comes for party in diu. Many people come to Diu at Christmas time and the main attraction of  that is the 31st party there.


     We didn't want to, but now it was time to leave. So we had to go to the hotel from bird watching sanctuary. Then we checked-out of the hotel and return for home. We spent two days here but these two days were the best enjoyment of our life.
