Konkan beaches have always remained one of my favourite destinations in Maharashtra. These secluded and quiet beaches offer you a better way to connect with nature especially when you need a break from the hustle and bustle of modern urban lifestyle.
Apart from the soothing sounds of the waves that offer relaxation, beaches in Konkan also offer you a chance to appreciate marine life. While you are here you can enjoy some stunning coastal landscapes and watch extraordinary sunrises and sunsets.
Looking for unique travel experiences in India that can stay with you forever?
India is a captivating destination blessed with diverse landscapes, cultures, traditions, languages and history. Hence, when you visit this country the experiences can be at times overwhelming. One of the things that make India unique is that it offers a variety of options. This provides you with incredible ways to experience India.
If you are planning to visit Pune, a visit to the National War Memorial Southern Command is a must. This is a great place for those who want to know more about various post-independence wars. Nestled in one of the greenest areas of Pune, this place can provide you with ample information that you can add to your knowledge.
Also, when you are exploring this war memorial you will find a dedicated space for the Southern Command Museum. This museum hosts various war memorabilia, weapons, tanks and uniforms that enhance the experience.
Nestled in the Southern Command Cantonment, the Southern Command Museum is one of the finest museums you should visit. The museum primarily focuses on the history, performances and achievements of the Southern Command Wing of the Indian Army.
We decided to tour this museum on our visit to Pune in the January of 2020. This was two months before the COVID-19 lockdown brought the world to a standstill. The Southern Command Army Museum is a treasure trove for those who want to know more about the Indian Army, particularly the Southern Command.
Looking for places to visit in Rajasthan in August?
Known for its rich culture, grand places, majestic forts, vibrant traditions, colourful attire and delicious cuisine, Rajasthan never fails to impress. This desert state in the northwest of India is often called the Land of the Royals.
The state is also home to more than 60 per cent of the Thar Desert also known as the Great Indian Desert. Hence, it is obvious that Rajasthan is not going to be a pleasant experience during the summer months.
Looking for the best weekend getaways for India Independence Day and Raksha Bandhan celebrations?
With the Indian Independence Day falling on Thursday 15th August 2024 many would think about spending time with their friends and family. Also, Raksha Bandhan on the following Monday 19th August 2024 adds to this long weekend.
If you haven’t spent time with your loved ones and friends celebrating the 78th Independence Day weekend would be a great opportunity. Most people living in the cities would want to look out for popular hill stations, pristine beaches and tranquil locations.
Looking for the best monsoon places in Karnataka? Bordering Maharashtra and Goa, Karnataka is one of the top states in India that offers a diverse landscape and a rich tapestry of history and culture.
It is also one of the states where you can enjoy the serene beauty of the Western Ghats. Hence, there are plenty of places to visit in Karnataka during monsoon. These places provide you with a terrific combination of natural landscapes, pleasant weather and outdoor activities.
Hence, they are ideal for those looking for short weekend holidays and even an extended holiday itinerary.
Looking for ways to enjoy a rainy day when you are not travelling? Monsoon in India has its benefits and drawbacks. The arrival of the southwest monsoon winds brings us plenty of rainfall and relief from scorching heat. To make it even better, it transforms various hill stations into lush scenic destinations that we can visit and explore.
On the other hand, excessive rainfall can also bring in an array of problems that most Indians are aware of. If you live in cities in Mumbai, Pune or any other metropolis you are likely stuck in your home when it rains severely. This can also toss away all travel and commute plans as public transportation comes to a standstill.
Saputara hill station is one of the most underrated hill stations in India. Located in the Dang district it is the only hill station in Gujarat. Hence, if you are looking for places that would offer you a break from your hectic schedule this one is a great choice.
Nestled 3280 feet (1000 m) above sea level, Saputara in Gujarat can provide you with scenic landscapes and panoramic lush green views. This is quite typical of most hill stations in India, especially during the monsoon season.
Ghats in Maharashtra offer a perfect blend of natural beauty and rich biodiversity. During the monsoon season, the Western Ghats in Maharashtra transform into a mystical wonderland offering a perfect way to rejuvenate our mind, body and soul.
Hence, it becomes a perfect place for those looking for a place to spend weekend holidays or head out for a long road trip.
