Shimoga - A Paradise waiting to be discovered
Best way to reach Shimoga is the overnight train from Bangalore. As for Stay, the only decent place to stay is Hotel Jewel Rock which is not to say much. Please refer my hotel review for more details. Some of the state highways are in dire need of repair - especially the one that leads to Kodali. The place is not tourist friendly so ensure that you have all the information that you need before you reach Shimoga. If you do not have your own mode of travel, use Autos. They charge you Rs. 20 for most destinations withing Shimoga Town. For nearby destinations like, Kodali or the Tiger safari etc its Rs. 150 - 200 for a return trip.
