A new chapter of romance will start soon in your life… yes, with our choice of romantic destinations in India. This week’s blog will cover some of the best places to visit in India for honeymoon. India has a lot of romantic destinations including a quixotic mix of ancient palaces, imposing forts, lovely beaches and glimmering lakes. Love is in the air…and if you’re searching for the most romantic destinations in India, we’ve compiled them for you that would make you long for more.
Udaipur, Rajasthan
Udaipur is one of the best romantic places in India as it is truly the ‘land of ‘Maharajas’. Besides its several lake-facing pink-hued palaces; narrow, winding backstreets; forts-turned-heritage hotels, you can visit the medieval era havelis and colourful bazaars one after another. Don’t miss out on visiting the Taj Lake Palace, situated on one of the most beautiful lakes in India, to enjoy its enticing old-time fascination. If you’re planning for the right destination for a honeymoon trip in India, then this is it.
Kanyakumari, Tamil Nadu
Kanyakumari, also known as Kumarimunai or Cape Comorin (during British rule), is the Land’ End, being the southern tip of the Indian subcontinent. The spectacular view of the sunset on Full Moon or traditionally the Tamil ‘Chitra Pournami’ day makes it one of the most romantic destinations in India. Other highlights of Kanyakumari, where the Indian Ocean meets the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean, include the Thiruvalluvar Statue, the almost 3000-year-old Bhaghavathy Amman temple and the Vivekananda Rock Memorial adding to the excitement of visiting this touring destination.
The Taj Mahal, Agra, Uttar Pradesh
One of the finest architectural marvels of the mighty Mughals, the Taj, as it is called by the locals, is a living paragon of divine love and every lover’s delight. Built to house the Mumtaz Mahal, the most favorite begum or wife of Mughal Emperor Shajahan, the narrative of the eternal love and bonding between the royal couple has become a part of the timeless Indian folklore and popular culture. As the beauty and splendor of the Taj has been already discussed in some of our previous blogs, it is suffice to say that it is simply one of the best honeymoon spots, and undoubtedly the most romantic place in India.
Kumarakom, Kerala
Kumarakom in ‘God’s own country of Kerala is the quintessential Kerala experience making it one of the most romantic destinations in India. This place defies time and space as you take a rather lazy, romantic ride on the ‘Kettuvallam’ or houseboat. This magical destination is nestled between verdant, green banks and coconut tree-bordered shore, while you enjoy the faint sound of the still waters and the very best of Kerala cuisine including Idiyappam, Puttu & Kadala Curry, etc.
Manali, Himachal Pradesh
The list would have been really incomplete if the gorgeously picturesque and snow-capped hill station of Manali situated in the Himalayan ranges had been missed out. One of the best visiting places in India for couples, they can take delight in adventure sports including mountaineering or skiing, paragliding; enjoying hot ‘chai’ at any roadside hotel; or take a panoramic view down the ‘snow point’ or Solang Valley from the homely warmness of a riverside cabin.
