Top 10 romantic places in India

• The language of romance is the same across the
  world. It kindles between people without any
  algorithms but we know that a setting is very
  important for this feeling. If you are a traveler
  who is looking for a romantic experience in
  India, we suggest these 10 places in India, in no
  special order. You may find many obvious places
  missing in the list. Its not because we want to
  be different, but we believe that safety,
  security, privacy and carefree are obvious checks
  for a place to be romantic first (try doing it
  yourself) getting arrested, getting clicked,
  getting mobbed and getting an ECR isnt really
  romantic.

• Udaipur the city of lakes, with a lot many
  palaces, hawelis, and gardens has been a romantic
  destination for centuries. With a constant cool
  breeze, warm and friendly people, especially
  sensitive to tourists and great eats, Udaipur has
  been well chosen by celebrities and commoners to
  fuel their passion. We also got married there, on
  the banks of one of those lakes. Go for walks,
  enjoy the beautiful views from the palaces, and
  then of the palaces from one of the many
  lakeshore restaurants. Put on your best and dine
  in at Devigarh or the restaurants within the city
  palace. For day trips, you could drive to the
  magnificent temples of Dilwara or even to Mount
  Abu and Kumbhalgarh.

• Manali As you drive into Manali from Kullu with
  Beas River on your right, you will get the urge
  to stop, get down and sit on those stones along
  the river and just watch the sun go down. When
  you drive from Manali to Nagar (the river again
  to your right) and smell the apple orchards to
  your left and the awesome snow peaks to your
  right, you will feel what romance is. When you
  sit down at the courtyard of Nicolas Roerichs
  house at Nagar and look beyond, you will feel
  like camping there for eternity. Manali is the
  ultimate romantic destination.

• For others, you can try your hand at snow sports,
  trek to Bhrigu Lake and many others, and better
  still go upto Rohtang Pass. There is a Manali for
  everyone but the romantic Manali is the one.

• Kutchch is a fairy tale on miles and miles of
  beds of salt. With hardly anyone around you
  (except fellow campers) on a full moon night when
  the ground turns white and the sky turns blue,
  you will feel like you are not on earth. 6 hours
  of non-stop magic melts even the diehard skeptic.

Kutchch, on a full moon night

• The days are equally beautiful the ruins of Roha
  fort or the quiet at Mandvi beach are equally
  enticing for one to stop, admire and think about
  how beauty manifests itself in so many forms.
  Visits to Kutchch can be teamed up with a side
  visit to Gir the only Indian sanctuary that has
  Asiatic lions on the prowl.

• Ooty before you make faces at this name, let me
  ask if you have walked hand in hand with your
  special one around Wellington or driven down
  beyond the Lawrences Church at Lovedale or have
  you driven down to Emerald or Avalanchi (more
  popular as Red Hills) or Upper Bhavani Lake and
  reservoirs. There is so much of pristine Ooty
  that many travelers seem to miss. Slip quietly
  down any of the tea estates Enroute to Lambs
  rock and sit down amongst acres of tea and no one
  but you. Sit down in the courtyard of St.
  Stephens church after a round of shopping at the
  Mohuns.

• For others, you always have the toy train and you
  always can drive to Coonoor and can also go to
  Black Thunder for your obligatory rush with water
  sports. Drive along the toy train. Deck up in
  your best and attend the annual derby. Romance is
  in the air.

11

• Vagator Palolem (Goa) while I will not argue
  against the fact that whole of Goa is a romantic
  paradise, these 2 beaches are special. Depending
  on where you are staying, you can pick Vagator
  (North Goa) or Palolem (South Goa). My advice
  be a romantic, and visit both.Both are flat and
  quiet sandy beaches for miles. Sunsets at both
  are to die for. At Vagator you have the advantage
  of watching it from the Chapora Fort (built on
  the cliff behind the beach) At Palolem you have
  the advantage of watching it from your own log
  hut.

12

• Palolem is a silver crescent dotted with palm
  trees all along Vagator has its own little quiet
  corners amongst a few rocks. Both look so awesome
  in monsoon rains. Civic amenities are better at
  Palolem.If you are driving into Palolem, do not
  take the highway. Instead take the internal route
  through Varca. The views you will get, descending
  into Palolem from the hills, is the one you will
  thank me forever.

• Darjeeling The 3 hour drive from the nearest
  airport to Darjeeling is straight out of the
  movie Barfi. The Aaradhana toy train is still
  functional but Darjeelings romance has grown
  beyond these wheels. The quaint Mall Road, old
  colonial buildings and schools, the so many
  winding roads which culminate near the book shop
  on the top of the Mall, still make Darjeeling
  smell of what it may have been during the Raj.
  Darjeeling provides some of the best views of the
  majestic Kanchenjunga Indias highest. The
  quest for a sunrise from Tiger Hill is another
  experience when Mother Nature suddenly removes
  her dark blanket and reveals the jewels in her
  bosom, all within 3 minutes.

15

• Then there is the all-encompassing Darjeeling tea
  and its various shades to choose from there is
  the zoo which is one of its kind with so many
  Pandas which no other zoo has. Right next to the
  zoo is the mountaineering institute which was
  once runs by Tenzing Norgay. There is a story in
  Darjeeling at every corner, and not so many
  people to tell.

• Kumarakom the backwaters spell magic as you get
  down at Kollam. Its all green, even the water
  reflects greenery. As you make your way towards
  your dream houseboat on the Vembanad Lake, you
  can feel that you are floating. The surroundings
  are fresh, cool, lively and gentle. As you get
  into your houseboat and settle down into its
  living room (with the pilot seated ahead of you
  on the wheels), you feel as if you are driving,
  while sipping coconut water (or rum, whatever you
  prefer).

Houseboats, entering into Vembanad Lake at
Kumarakom
As you put your feet up on the sofa, the boat
comes out into broader waters where you can see
villagers on both sides of the backwater, going
about their chores, happy to see you amidst
themselves. As you dip into your freshly fried
pakodas, the boat gets into the huge Vembanad
Lake a strong cool breeze greets you and
welcomes you to Gods own country. Retire for the
night, sleep like a baby as the boat gently rocks
and rolls you repeat it for another day, and
more. This love story has no end.
19

• Nainital evokes the usual snobbery like we
  reserve for Simla and others. Yet, this place is
  magical. The lake is spotlessly clean there is
  enough space so that even if crowded, you dont
  feel it. The wind is mystical and there is life
  amongst these. There are kids playing cricket,
  folks going into a matinee movie, people walking
  around the long and winding Mall Road. You can
  choose to be in there, by the book shop, or you
  can choose to go up the mountain by 2 loops and
  watch the lake from above, marveling at its blue
  waters. You can choose to visit the other 6 lakes
  and find the same experience. For newlyweds,
  there is the Naina Devi temple to take blessings
  from. For old timers, you can sit and gaze at the
  Nanda Devi from a distance and wonder at the
  beauty of that mountain. You can be so many
  things at once at Nainital.

• Andamans is synonymous with pristine white sand
  beaches sparsely populated islands and an India
  we would not know. Its setting, its seclusion,
  and its novelty make it a romantic adventure.
  Radhanagar beach is a huge swathe of gentle waves
  on white sands Havelock Island is a favorite
  amongst the tourists island hopping Ross
  Island, Neil Island is another.

21

• Unlike Lakshwadeep, it is not so ecologically
  fragile, is better accessible and is big enough
  for a tourists needs and safety. The whole set
  of islands is a journey of exploration. Done with
  your better half, it will leave you more
  appreciative of the other, more closer to each
  other.

View of Dhauladhars, from Dalhousie
Dalhousie is still a relatively unknown
destination for Indians, mostly a stopover for
folks who are in transit. The charm of Dalhousie
is in its isolation, is in its relatively smaller
size. You can literally walk around the town from
your hotel. The Mall Road has a few places where
the tourists gather to talk and share. The cold
mist envelopes the small Tibetan market nearby
and a bluish layer of condensed vapor becomes
visible as sunset leads to night.
23

• The day opens with a view of the valleys below
  as you drive towards the lush green meadows of
  Khajiar, you will find the jungles so thick that
  Sun has difficulty permeating through to the
  soil. You can run from one end of Khajiar to the
  other, but you will never get enough. And all
  through, the smells of Indian Chai, Tibetan
  momos, Maggi noodles, and butter dosas will keep
  you walking from one place to the other.
  Dalhousie is a place to sit quietly, take long
  pauses, communicate non-verbally and power off
  your devices. Its a place that powers you on.
