    You could start at Annandale, then walk south toward the Mall Road. From there, take the short bus or shared taxi that heads up the hill to Jakhu Temple it’s only about 3 km and the route passes the old Christ Church, so you can drop by on the way. For a cheap lunch, stop at the small tea stall on Mall Road; they serve local snacks and a simple thali for under ₹200. This keeps transport minimal and budget tight.
