Planning A Trip To India? Here are the Best Places to Visit during Summer in India.
we have a saving list for you. It details the places in India, the mountainous regions, the hill stations, the northernmost Himalayan cities; places that are worth a visit from the month of March to June-July and show you a great time even in the heat of summer.
Manali
Manali is one of the foremost suggestions that come to mind when we think ‘hill stations.’ Well, good for Manali, because the town is a stunning summer getaway. It maintains the perfect weather at this time of the year, perched high as it is in the snow-capped ranges of North India. It is not too cold, but cooler than the other scorching parts of India. There may not be any snow to play in at this time, but you can rest assured that there will be loads of greenery, some snow to see on far flung mountains, cool days and cooler nights. You can indulge in trekking, zorbing, mountain and quad biking as well as paragliding in Manali in summer, and go visit the beautiful bird sanctuaries nearby.
Shimla
Shimla is known as the summer capital of the British soldiers that missed too much of their own home. With its quaint mountains and deep valleys, light mist and cool sunshine, Shimla is one of the most elegant hill stations of modern India. Although crowded with tourists in the May to July months, the city still makes for a great holiday for summer. The cafes in its lonely streets, the too-crowded-for-their-own-good markets, the temples of local deities on hilltops and lodges that still bear the mark of the British - we bet you are already in love with it all!
Ladakh
Summers in Ladakh may not be as warm as most people like them to be, but they are the best there is. In fact, the road to Ladakh from Srinagar is almost virtually inaccessible in the peak winter months. So travellers only get these few summer months from March to August-September to visit the northernmost state of India. Many adventure enthusiasts also prefer to take their bikes and cut a road trip up north from Delhi or Srinagar. Ladakh with its stunning landscapes, white deserts, Buddhist monasteries and crystal clear lakes is a land right out of fairytales. You get adventure and serenity in equal doses here
Auli
What could one say about Kashmir that already hasn’t been said? It is a force of nature that has been good to the world but the world hasn’t been good to it. Even so, Kashmir is one of the most beautiful paradises in the season of summer. When the streams burst out of their thawing trickles and trees bloom with nascent flowers, when there is a light mist and not the dense fog of winter to navigate, and the Dal flows freely with shikaras bobbing with fruits, flowers and green leafies, Kashmir welcomes tourists with open arms. Though in the current scenario you will need to inquire about the state of affairs and security in the state, it is almost always safe to travel. Enjoy sights in Srinagar, go boating in Dal, head to Gulmarg for a photoshoot ala Yash Chopra or go see the fields of gold and heavenly horses galloping in Sonmarg. When in Kashmir, sky is your limit.
