Hyde Park closure.... a view of a child

Latest news - The Royal Parks
(picture Source :https://www.royalparks.org.uk/whats-on/latest-news)
Hyde Park should remain open because it's a joyful place as it has a lot of trees and nature. Also it is a good place to exercise (walk,run,jog, etc.)and there is fresh air for everyone.Its a social meet up and you can make new friends there as well. Everyone enjoys going there and I think that it is the biggest closed ground space ever! Its holds good amount of space to do social distancing.

It can also impact people like gardeners/cleaners because they will lose their job.Children because they play and use its forest feel for adventure. Visitors as it is one of the many landmarks of London.

It impacts runners/joggers as it is there place to relax and exercise. Family as they  cant have a day out,cant get fresh air and if there is good weather then they cant enjoy it. Finally the whole neighbourhood because they don't have any outdoor space so they wont get any fresh air.=)

Hot Air Balloons Trips in Summer 2020

Why not to travel with us which will be of around an hour or so but the whole memorable experience will take around three and half hours.
Passengers will be taken through the necessary safety elements of hot air balloon travel and the landing positions. A commemorative Certificate will be issued by your pilot at the end of trip.
We have seen that who ever have had an experience of a flight on a hot air balloon, they will never come out of their experience of a romantic and magical togetherness looking over the magnificent British Countryside.
Since the balloon will fly with the wind direction, we will pick you up from the landing position.
We take either the early flight in the morning or in the evenings throughout the summer months, when the wind is at its calmest. Although very few hot air balloon flights take place in the winter, we do, however, operate a standby list for those enthusiastic winter-flyers, when the weather is in our favour.
Let us know if you are interested in the above trip.

Pilgrim's Guide:


As stated by the temple please read carefully before you plan your travel:

What to wear


Skanda Vale is an outdoors place, and the weather is often a lot worse than in the cities. You should be prepared, even in summer, for bad weather. We recommend you wear warm outdoor clothing, with waterproofs, umbrellas and sensible shoes for walking on uneven ground. If you are visiting in the winter then you should bring a torch as well. Your temple clothing should be clean and modest. We ask pilgrims not to bring leather jackets, belts or handbags into the temples.

What to bring


All worship, meals and accommodation at Skanda Vale are offered free of charge. If you would like to donate money, food or any other items then you are very welcome, but it should be done so anonymously. In keeping our vows of poverty, we never make suggestions regarding what you should offer to God in the temples. Food offerings should be arranged on trays, and placed on the tables outside any of our three temples before the puja starts. Please remove any unnecessary packaging, and wash all fruit and vegetables thoroughly. Money offerings should be placed in the red metal donation boxes outside each of the temples. Please do not offer money in the temple itself.

What to do when you’re at the temple


Skanda Vale is an ashram, not a tourist destination. If you would like to visit, then you should come as a pilgrim, not a sightseer. In preparation for your pilgrimage, we ask you not to consume any meat, poultry, fish, alcohol or illegal drugs for at least three days before you come here. Please do not bring any of these things into the ashram, and remember that no smoking is permitted anywhere in Skanda Vale. If you have eaten meat in the last three days, then please sit on the terrace of the Shakti Temple, or sit at the back of the Murugan Temple. We ask ladies having a menstrual period to do the same – please feel free to ask a member of the Community if you would like to know more about this.
Most of our pilgrims have travelled a very long way to be here. Please grant them your respect by following these simple temple rules:
* Turn off your phone.
* Sing, chant and worship God, but don’t talk during pujas.
* No photography or recording in the temples.
* Men and women sit separately.
* Children must be supervised at all times, and must be quiet in the temples.

The grounds of the ashram are sacred, so do not pick any plants or flowers – children found throwing stones at our animals will be in serious trouble. We have continuing problems with pilgrims dropping their rubbish; please understand that we don’t have a big team of cleaners – the swamis who lead the pujas are the same people that have to clean up everything you throw on the floor.

Pilgrims must not offer healing, therapies, counselling or medical treatment, (except emergency first aid) whilst at Skanda Vale. If you would like to volunteer as a health care practitioner, there may be an opportunity for you to help at our Hospice. Please contact the Temple for more information.
As a general rule, you should come to Skanda Vale only to enhance your personal experience of God. It is not acceptable to use the ashram as a network to promote your business, find a partner, or recruit for other religious or charitable organisations. Leaving religious pictures or literature for pilgrims to pick up is not OK.

Deatsiled note on the Guide can be found on http://www.skandavale.org

Please be reminded

Visitors must not have eaten Non Veg (Meat)and must be alchohal free for last 72 Hours prior to visiting Skanda Vale. Incase of the ladies they should not be in their menstrual period. No leather items including clothing and bags should be taken inside the temple premises (worship place). Mobile should be switched off during the Aartis. No Filming / shooting / recording gadgets should be taken to the temple. CDs of the bhajans and Literature is available on the temple to buy. To supprot the Hospice / Temple by way of donations kindly drop the donation in the Donation boxes installed in the premises. Do not throw coins in the Ranganath Temple Pond / lakes around. Dont waste the Prasad (breakfast), you can ask for more if you need.

People travelled with us since 13 years have recommended these trips

A selection of our day trips offers our travel companions to recommend us to their friends. We give plenty of time at each stop for you to get off and see everything for yourself - the views don't just pass your window. Our tours are small and relaxed.

ISLE OF WIGHT Postcodes and proposed itinerary


Proposed Route for a quick traveller

Day 1: London – Ferry Terminal – Isle of Wight


You arrive at the island, check in at the hotel and will have lunch. After 1 hour of rest we then drive to our first stop: Godshill, where you will have time on your own to explore. Terribly charming; Godshill Village is a very pretty and popular old village with many thatched houses and gift shops.

The Godshill Model Village:  PO38 3HH 



Nestling in the gardens of the Old Vicarage is this beautiful Model Village of Godshill and Shanklin Old Villages as they were in yesteryear. The exquisite details include 1/10 scale houses, many with real thatched roofs; miniature trees and gardens; a Model Railway; an airship; a wind turbine and local characters going about their business. The 1 1/4-acre garden is landscaped with over 2,000 conifers, many treated with coarse bonsai to form a perfect setting for the models.
From here we will then take a short drive to Shanklin. This picturesque old village is famous for its association with the poet Keats and its chine (a natural feature formed by water cutting through the cliff). Here at Shanklin you will have time to buy and eat lunch at one of many of the quaint eateries.


You then will be going to Sandown Beach which is 10 minutes from the hotel if you book with us.
Sandown Bay is the name of the bay off the English Channel which both towns share, and it is notable for its long stretch of easily accessible golden sandy beach. It is the site of the lost Sandown Castle, Isle of Wight. Here you can enjoy the Pier at the fullest.

Day 02: Isle of Wight –Needles Battery – Charilift – Glass Factory – Pearl Factory

The Needles Park: PO39 0JD 



The Needles is a row of three distinctive stacks of chalk that rise out of the sea off the western extremity of the Isle of Wight, England, close to Alum Bay. A lighthouse designed by Scottish civil engineer James Walker has stood at the western end of the formation since 1859.

Pearl Factory - PO30 4DD

Isle of Wight Pearl houses the largest collection of pearl jewellery in the UK. With over 20 years experience in the pearl industry, Isle of Wight Pearl are the pearl specialists.
They have something to suit everyone, with ranges of Freshwater, Akoya, Tahitian, South Sea and crafted pearls. Our gifted designers are always on hand to create bespoke items, tailor-made to your needs.
Be sure to visit ‘Pick a Pearl’ where you can select an oyster from the pool and watch in amazement, as a genuine cultured pearl is revealed. You can then have it placed in a setting of your choice. A fabulous keepsake.
