Discover India- Everlasting Beauties

India “Unity in Diversity” for many things like culture, food, people, and economy. you can see magnificent beaches, frosty & snow clad mountains, lantern-lit villages to modern cities.you will love it coz, this lovely country has got everything to leave a strong impression on you and make your trip memorable for lifetime.

                                           

                                         Top 3 Places to visit in India

India has got everything for every one. According to me top 3 places to visit in India are
1. Agra's TAJMAHAL: Tajmahal was built in 1653 by Mughal emperor Shahjahan in the memory of his wife Mumtaaz. Entire structure is made up by white marble and its the finest example of Mughal architecture. If you are not from India you need to pay higher amount of pass fee to visit Tajmahal, best time to visit Taj Mahal is from October to February(winters in India). Polluting traffic is not allowed near the complex and tourists must either walk from parking lots or catch an electric bus from there. I bet you will spend your entire evening admiring this magnificent place.
Taj Mahal refers as a sign of love(coz Shahjahan made it for his wife to show his love for her) but i would like to share some strange facts with you, first of all Mumtaaz was Shahjahan's 3rd wife. secondly, to get her, Shahjahan killed her husband and the most horrible fact is she died while giving birth to her 8th child, still it called the monument of love, strange but true.


2. GOA: This place needs no introduction, its beautiful beaches are well known to everyone.Goa earn most money from tourism. There are many places you can see including beaches, old cathedrals, museum etc. When i was in Goa I preferred beach over museum, to go first. My hotel was near Calangute beach so I visited Calangute beach on the very first day of my trip, you can  hire a bike or a car it is available on rent,door step delivery is also available for bikes and cars, after Calangute, if you are in to adventures you have an option to walk by the beach for some miles to see Baga beach its hardly one mile away from calangute  there you can do bumpy rides, banana boat rides, scooter rides and para-sailing in sea, if you want to save some bucks you need to do some negotiations before booking a ride coz there is no fix fee. There are lots of beaches you can see,  like Anjuna beach, Miramar beach, donna paula beach... talking about donna paula it’s a beautiful beach. Donna Paula was two lovers, this beach is named after them.. some says,  they committed suicide coz they failed in love, you can see their statue standing . you can visit fort Aquda and lighthouse too, fort Aquda is open till 5 pm and the light house is a mile walk from Fort.

To see the night life you can go to some pubs & disc around in calangute and colva, there is a famous club out there named Tito’s,  it’s a good club with nice ambiance


3. KASHMIR: Jammu and Kashmir is the northern region of India and famous for its magnificent beauty. there is a lot to see in J&K, places like Gulmarg, Sonmarg, Pehelgam and Leh Laddakh. Best time to visit J&K is in spring and summer, you can visit J&K in winters too but you should be prepared for some chilling cold. 
Gulmarg is 50 kms away from Shrinagar(summer capital of J&K state). Gulmarg ("Meadow of Flowers") is state's most visited destinations.It is an eye catching place with picturesque surroundings,lovely gardens with beautiful flowers and  fragrance. This is one of the best ski resorts in India coz in winters you can see heavy snowfall. Some of the highest ski slopes in India lies in the sloppy Himalaya regions in Gulmarg. From Gulmarg you can hire a cab to see Sonmarg and Pahelgam, Sonmarg is approx 130 kms away from Gulmarg. Pahalgam valley is perfectly suitable for adventurous activities like golf, horse riding, trekking and many water sports.Its is 96kms from Shrinagar.
