People love to go on a leisure trip as it will help ease their stress. I too wanted to go on such a trip to relax and rejuvenate my tired body cells. We had a lot of work going on and I found it next to impossible to get a week off. One of our sites in Mathura needed to be inspected and my boss wanted me to go out there. This was the golden chance I was waiting for and I planned to book tickets and prepare myself for the journey.

Making reservations was never a big problem for me as I am familiar with the booking process. There was a plethora of trains that operated between New Delhi and Mathura and I had no difficulty in finding the best one for my trip. Dakshin Express 12722 was my preferred choice as it is the apt New Delhi to Mathura train that suited my timings. I was able to make bookings without hassles as the online portal of IRCTC came with all the necessary information.

Dakshin Express: Taking You On A Joyride To The Beautiful City In India!

Anyone who wishes to endure a safe and hassle-free journey must make reservations in advance. The online portal of IRCTC is user-friendly and I was able to book tickets within minutes. All I did was give the source city, destination city and the date of journey. I was provided with a list of trains in various categories such as general, tatkal and premium tatkal. I took the general booking option and booked an AC ticket on Dakshin Express. This is a simple process that took no more than a few minutes.

My journey to Mathura was a very comfortable one and I had no issues at all. My berth was neatly done and came with pillows and blankets. There was also a water holder near every seat, which is a good thing. A delicious array of food was also served onboard ranging from non-vegetarian to vegetarian delights. The train made its way from New Delhi and reached Mathura at about 1:00 AM. Since it was early in the morning, I felt very tired and decided to head straight to my hotel for a good sleep.

As soon as the train reached Mathura, I wasted no time in going to my hotel. Set amidst peaceful environs, the hotel serves as a haven for those who wish to experience a divine stay. I had already booked the one bedroom luxury cottage that was cozy and came with all the basic amenities. Some of the in-room amenities offered include mini bar, flat screen television, mirror, private bathroom, and more.

After having a soothing sleep, I planned on visiting Kans Quila, one of the oldest forts in Mathura. Cuddled cozily on the northern banks of the Yamuna River, the fort is a major attraction of Mathura that lures in thousands of visitors. The magnificent architecture and the breathtaking view of the surrounding vistas was an absolute feast for sore eyes! After sightseeing, I headed back to my hotel to have a good sleep as I needed to visit my company’s site the next day. Overall, my trip to Mathura was a fantastic one and the memories will linger in my heart forever!
