India, the land that attracts millions of travelers every year. But when you ask each one of them to describe their experience, every single response will go on to define a whole new country that could sometimes have no relationship with other responses.
Is there a way to generalize the experience of travelers who visit India? There is not. Indeed, India is vast not only in its size (being the 7th largest country in the world), it’s also home to some of the most enticing pieces of landform, lots of architectural marvels, wide variety of cultures and a massive pool of over a billion people, all divided by their regions but at the same time, united by their love for their country.
This might sound a little confusing to some of the travelers who are planning a trip to India but have no finalized their plans on where they’d go. While unplanned trips are great fun in some places, we would highly advise against it when you’re going to India. In fact, we would strongly recommend you hire a tour operator in India to make your travel completely hassle-free.
Today, we are going to talk about 5 regions in India that have received an overwhelming amount of recommendations from the tourists who visit there recently. Let’s carry our discussion further by diving into this list right away!
The Golden Triangle
India may be too vast to cover in one trip, but if you want to get the most out of North India in one visit, the golden triangle in India is your go-to place. For those readers who are not familiar with this region, the golden triangle is a network of three cities in North India that happen to be among the most visited tourist cities in the country. These three cities are Delhi, Agra (which is home to the Taj Mahal)and Jaipur. Each city has its own significance and the region, as a whole, has more than enough to welcome its tourists with.
The Himalayas
If you’re a fan of lofty mountains and snowfalls, the northernmost region of India is your obvious destination. This includes, but not limited to, three states, namely Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and Uttrakhand. Some of the most prominent cities to visit here are Shimla, Nainital, Manali, Dehradun, Mussoorie and other enchanting hill stations of the region.
The Coastline
If North India has its beautiful snow-white mountains of the Himalayas, the south is no less with its massive coastline full of beach cities across the region. If you are looking for a relaxing and fun-filled trip to India where you don’t want to cover a lot of ground but instead, want to chill out with their friends on a beach, India’s south would be your ideal place.
The Thar Desert
If the beaches and mountains are too cliche to visit, and you want to try something different during your trip to India, turn your head to the west. Spread across the westernmost region of the culturally rich state of Rajasthan, the Thar Desert is an area full of peace, romantic evenings, camel safari, traditional Rajasthani food and more.
The Deccan Plateau
Aside from the coastline, the peninsular region of south India, which is surrounded by the Arabian Sea in the west and The Bey of Bengal in the east, also has its own significance on the Indian map. The cultural diversity and the megacities that you will find here give a very unique picture of India, something that a lot of travelers coming to India forget to embrace. If you want a completely unique experience in India, just visit the Deccan Plateau.
