That’s the place you go in search of gold. Or at least it used to be. The Kolar Gold Fields (KGF) have since closed down so we couldn’t really go in search of our pot of gold after all.

Anita makes a day trip to Kolar, where she visits a few interesting temples, including one that has around around 86 lakh lingams.
