Hello and welcome back!
On popular request - today I - your friend Prabhasini will share with you 5 popular summer vacation destinations in India other than Jammu and Kashmir and Himachal Pradesh.
Summers have set in and most of the schools and colleges would be closed for summers. And - for those who do not wish to go about the usual trip to native places or grandparents home and those who do not wish to spend the summers in any extra-classes or doing interns either, rather, wish to pack your bags and set about to a place to - relax or have an adventure or explore the unknown in your own way, here are 5 places within India you can visit during summer breaks.
1. Assam - Welcome to the land of Tea and Rhinos. Welcome to the land of the divine Kamakhya temple and bamboo craft. Welcome to Assam.

You can come here from any place in India by air or train. If you are in Siliguri, you can also avail Redbus to reach Guwahati ( the main city of Assam ) as tickets are available anytime and cheaper than air. You can enjoy the scenic beauty enroute - although the journey by bus would be time taking - you would travel for 11 to 13 hours.
Some interesting Places to visit here are -
a. Kamakhya Temple - the most divine place here and one of sati-piths
b. Kaziranga national park - do carry your cameras for the wild life shots.
c. Ugra-tara temple and Shukleshwar
d. Umananda - you need to take a launch to go there
e. Assam state Museum
f. Talatal ghar - for the architectural remains of the Ahom dynasty - in shibasagar
g. Agnighar - in tezpur
Although this mystic place can't be discovered entirely - still you would need to have minimum 20 days in your itinerary to explore Assam. And - the uber service in Assam is really good. Do book Uber for your tours within the city.
2. Shillong - Another hill-station in the eastern India is Shillong - worth visiting during Summer breaks.

With Pines and colonial grandeurs and with IIMs and NIFTs Shillong is a bustling town and a conglomerate of modernity, progress, history and natural heritage.
Places worth visiting here are -
a. Laitlum Canyons
3. Coonoor -
A large cheese farm in Bangalore - coonoor is also a place worth visiting - esp. for the relaxed yet entrepreneurial mind who would also wish to learn more about - saying 'Cheese'.
The nearest Airport is Coimbatore airport, from where you need to take a cab to reach Coonoor. However, the most enjoyable journey would be taking toytrains - which connect Coonoor with Ooty and Mettupalayam.
4. Munnar - Kerala

If you wish to be in the lap of nature and in a relaxed environment away from the hot and humid weather - Munnar, a hill station in Kerala is the perfect place for you to go.
You can reach Munnar by taking a cab from Cochin airport after reaching Cochin by flight. If you wish to travel through the roads - take a bus of KSRTC - many buses frequent from Cochin and other places in Kerala to Munnar. The option of train would be a bit inconvenient though.
5. Horseley Hills - Andhrapradesh

If you love the ambience set by dense eucalyptus, jacaranda, allamanda and gulmohar - which sets an ambience of both romanticism and mysticism - also it sets the perfect spooky set-up for the budding writers, while you take a walk among these dense tracks - the place Horseley hills in Andhra Pradesh is perfect for you to go.
You can reach Horseley Hills by:
a. taking a flight to Bangalore and a 3 hour drive by cab thereafter.
b. reaching Mandanapalle railway station just 26kms away from horseley hills.
So friends - even if you do not wish to head north this time for summer vacations, still you can enjoy a relaxing summer in these locations. Hope you all enjoy your summer breaks. And Happy journey!
Stay tuned for the next...
