Brilliant pictures, Sir.
Such a coincidence that I was passing by Manjeshwar yesterday.
How amazing to have a village where 5 languages are spoken.
I really like the first image, there is something warm about it and the pool appears so clean, I would love to dip my toes in it.;))

This is very interesting! Do you think that most people in the area speak all five languages? How else would they be able to function together? Fascinating!

Weekend Reflection
I really like your photo of the pool. I hope you will show more from this village.
Enjoying your guide to India and the fascinating temples, interesting notes in that last post about the beautiful building hidden behind rocks, what a cool find
It looks lovely, the first shot looks like an ancient swimming pool!
It looks like an interesting place to visit. It also looks more rural than some of the other places you feature but I am not sure. I like the water photo.
Another interesting place to visit in India. Beautiful photos. :)
Great shots as always.
Have a great weekend.
Very rare is to find a village like Manjeshwara where five languages are spoken.A special "pancha bhasha bhumi."
Great find....

It's always interesting to see where you have gone! I like the ducks splashing in the pool.
Very pretty..
Here's my mellow yellowplease come and see. Thank you!
Thank you all. I will discover this place more.
In a country like India, it is amazing to find a place like Manjeshwara.. The architecture of the temple looks so beautiful. I love the name "Pancha Bhasha Bhumi". Please explore the place called Mattur in Karnataka. It is the only place where people still speak in Sanskrit :) . Looking forward to seeing more information about this place from you :)
Beautiful shots, thank's for sharing..
Visiting for MYM! Hope you can visit mine too..

Nice to hear about this place. Hope to visit some day.
Rajesh...You have given us all another wonderful gift from India with your photographs. I adore the one with the water and the ducks. It reminds me of a Roman bath but one for little ducklings. The temple is lovely. genie
Seems interesting place, hope I will travel one day to South and see such lovely places.
