Jog Waterfalls of
Karnataka
There is nothing
quite as magical as visiting a stunning waterfall in nature, and India has no
shortage of these. One of the most impressive of them all has to be the Jog
Waterfalls, which can be found in the state of Karnataka. In fact, this is the
second highest plunge waterfall in the whole country, with a height of 253
metres. It’s a great idea to visit on a clear day in the rainy season where the
water really thunders through the falls and you might even be lucky enough to
spot a rainbow.
Mountain Passes
of Ladakh
If you fancy
yourself as something of an adventurer, you absolutely need to visit the Ladakh
region in the north of the country, which is also known as the Land of the
Passes. These mountain passes are sometimes inaccessible because of snowfall,
but you should have no problem motoring through them in the spring and summer
months. We particularly love the Chang-La Pass, which is one of the highest
mountain passes in the whole world, from which you’ll experience killer views.
And there is a hot tea stall there to refresh yourself!
Mehrangarh Fort
One of the
highlights of visiting the blue city of Jodhpur has to be a trip to the
incomparable Mehrangarh Fort, a fortress that stands majestically on a rocky
hill, and that can be seen from all over the city. This fort dates way back to
the 15th century, and inside you can find seven ornately decorated palaces.
There is also a museum inside with many stunning objects, including a
collection of fine and applied arts from the Mughal period, beautiful armoury,
a turban gallery, a paintings gallery, and more besides.
Valley of Flowers
Some of the
landscapes you will find in India are beyond beautiful, and never is this more
apparent than when you visit the Valley of Flowers National Park in the northern
state of Uttarakhand. The Valley of Flowers in a high altitude Himalayan
valley, which is home to a beautiful array of alpine plants and flowers. If you
don’t mind a challenging trek, this could be the place for you. And the best
time to visit is between July and September, just after the monsoon season when
the flowers are in full bloom.
Chitrakot
Waterfall
We think that one
of the most pleasant things you can do on a free day is a visit a beautiful
waterfall, and one of the most stunning falls in India is the Chitrakot
Waterfall, located in the under visited state of Chhattisgarh. While the height
of the falls in one 29 metres, it’s the widest waterfall in the whole country,
making it look truly unique. It is often called the Niagara Falls of India, and
it is best visited in the Monsoon season when the water really gushes through
the falls.
