Sometimes, life gets monotonous
and all you crave for is a vacation with your special someone. But where
to head to when all the places are already taken with tourists crowding them
every now and then? Here are 12 beautiful romantic destinations
hidden in India that you must travel to with your loved one:
1. Mashobra
Half an hour away from the hustle
bustle of Shimla lies a sleepy town full of Himalayan cedar, wild strawberries
and abundant orchards. Mashobra is truly a nature lover’s delight. Not your
typical romantic destination, this one is for couples who like to experience
the other side. Try some local cuisines or just wander around, this place will
make you forget your worries.
2. Triund
Have you ever dreamt of walking on
clouds? If you have, here is a chance to make that dream come true. Some 18 kms
away from McLeod Ganj, Triund is the adventure lover's paradise and looks just
great every season. The four-five hour trek leaves you tired as hell, but when
you are with the love of your life, it is totally worth it!
3. Khajjiar
Another of Himachal's gem, Khajjiar is
a tiny little hill station in Chamba. It's beautiful location and
landscapes have earned the title of 'Mini Switzerland'. Just walk around with
your special someone around the lake or go on a romantic long walk in the thick
pine forests.
Your sweatheart by your side, a
drizzle, some chai with hot pakoras, and a long drive - what else do you need
to make it a perfect evening? One of the wettest places on Earth, Cherrapunji
in Meghalaya is beauty at its best. The place sees monsoons throughout the year
and is a perfect abode for you and your plus one.
5. Chaukori
6. Mararikulam
If you and your partner are craving
some beach time alone, ditch Goa and straightaway head to Mararikulam. Time
stands still at this super clean beach which is a perfect destination to sit,
relax and soak in the sun or just enjoy the shade of the coconut trees on the
beach.
7. Jalori Pass
If you are the kind of couple who likes
to keep it adventurous, what can be better than a bike ride to Jalori Pass, one
of India's dangerous roads. However, it remains closed during peak
winters. So before you decide to take the route, make sure you are fully
prepared.
8. Alleppey
Alleppey is also known as Alappuzha and
is a beautiful town in Kerala. From temples to caves to boat rides and cruises,
there is something to leave everybody awed in this town. We recommend you get
on the houseboat, forget your worldly worries and wander around the lake
for a while!
9. Coorg
Be enchanted by the beautiful Abbey
Falls in Madikeri or experience wildlife at the Jungle Trek in the Western
Ghats, Coorg makes for a great romantic destination to rejuvenate your souls.
10. Havelock Island
A four-hour ferry drive away from Port
Blair, the pristine blue waters of the Havelock Island are perfect to set the
tone for your time ahead with your loved one. Hire a bicycle, bike or just walk
around on the island, the place offers you your time alone, without any
tourist-y distractions.
11. Imphal
If you like experiencing new cultures,
Imphal is the place for you. Rightly called the Jewel of India, it is
surrounded by hills from all sides making it a perfect place for a long chat
and a little cuddle. A total scenic heaven, head to Imphal if you are tired of
the conventional romantic places.
12. Nashik
