Bucket List for Karnataka and around!

Like every other traveler, I have bucket list too, actually multiple of them. And I have one for my home state Karnataka. As my bucket lists are huge, and it can go up to many pages (like any other avid traveler), I have narrowed my lists down to a single state. This post lists my wish list of places in Karnataka and around.

Important Information

Note:

• This bucket list will be updated and maintained regularly.
• This list only has the names of the places I wish to visit/ have visited that are in Karnataka and around Karnataka and not the adventures or the activities I wish to seek.
