1. Hasta Shilpa Heritage Village
Hasta Shilpa Heritage Village at Manipal is a multi-dimensional cultural project which aims at restoration and conservation of the nation’s cultural wealth expressed in the form of traditional buildings and objects of art, craft and other artifacts of aesthetic interest, some dating several hundred years ago. A must-visit for lovers of culture! This is expected to be opened to the public in Feb-2013.

2. Go into the tall grasses, find a peacock or two
This is by far the most interesting one. The tall grasses and small forest you see opposite Parnakuti houses peacocks. If it is a bit cloudy and evening you might be in luck. What’s more, you may even sight them loitering around Parnakuti!

3. Take a cycle, roam around
Manipal and the countryside is a great place to roam around on a cycle. We recommend early mornings for solitude and evenings for fun acquaintances.

4. Play a round of cricket match
There is a playground just next to the lake. Join the local group for a match, or form your own.

5. Boating at the Manipal lake
Safe to avoid the scorching noon sun. Life jackets are provided by the operators.

6. Planetarium and Venugopal Temple
Manipal has a planetarium named after Dr. T.M.A Pai, who is well known for building the university town of Manipal. It is the second planetarium of the state after Bangalore’s “Nehru Planetarium”. The Venugopal temple is built using architectural styles from Hindu, Muslim, and Christian together. A true symbol of cultural diversity that Manipal is known for.

7. Pub and Restaurants
You may want to visit Blue Waters, Wine and Spirits for a good time. If just dining is on your cards there are fine restaurants Basil Cafe (Continental), Crumbz (light snacks), China Valley (Chinese), Guzzler’s Inn (North Indian). Bacchus Inn is famous for traditional veg starters.

8. MAP – Museum of Anatomy and Pathology
This was renovated in 201. The anatomy section displays the specimen of human body parts and organs. All the organ systems of the human body could be explored as separate entities. In also houses a large collection of animal carcasses, skeletons and bones. May not be a great sight, unless you are truly interested in Anatomy.

9. WWM (World Wide Manipal) and Food Court
Manipal is home to Manipal University, which has 19 colleges, ranging from the fields of Business, Engineering and Health sciences. One round around the campus will give you a glimpse into the truly global educational facility that Manipal university offers scores of students from around the world. The food court offers traditional South Indian food, and also houses joints like Subway, Yo Dragon, and Scirocco.

10. Rajatadri and End Point
Rajatadri is the newly constructed government office complex near the End Point. Built-in the traditional style this complex houses government offices for Udupi district headquarters. Further down the road is the End Point – a small cliff overlooking the Swarna river. From this point, one can see the Arabian Sea on the western horizon and the Western Ghats on the eastern horizon.
