Now gone are those times when traveling meant only going to Shimla, Manali or Goa. Now the style of traveling is changing! Today’s travelers are not just looking for crowded famous places to take selfies, but are looking for places where there is peace, where one feels connected to the culture, and where memories last a lifetime.
If you are also looking for a similar experience, then let us take you to those 5 corners of India, which are becoming the first choice of discerning travelers these days.
1. Majuli (Assam): Where life comes to a halt on the world’s largest river island
Imagine, you are in a place which is the largest river island in the world, where people still live in mud houses, make masks by hand, and where there is no pretense, only simplicity in the air. This is Majuli! You can reach this magical island by boat from Jorhat, Assam. While the lush green tea gardens of Jorhat begin your journey, Majuli connects you to the real soul of Assam.
2. Varanasi (Banaras): Which is now not just spirituality but has become a ‘vibe’
Banaras is no longer just for the elderly or pilgrims. This city has now become a ‘cool’ destination for the youth! Now on the ghats here, not only worship, but morning yoga, evening music, and a different color of life can be seen in the beautiful boutique cafes built on the banks of Ganga. Wandering through the narrow streets here, tasting Kachori-Jalebi and feeling the energy of Ganga Aarti… this is an experience that you cannot get anywhere else.
3. Ziro Valley (Arunachal Pradesh): Where the clouds are beneath your feet
If you want to know the real definition of peace and tranquility, then go to Ziro Valley of Arunachal Pradesh. The hills wrapped in mist, the lush green rice fields spread far and wide and the unique lifestyle of the ‘Apatani’ tribe here will make you feel as if you have come to another world. The ‘Zero Music Festival’ held here is also becoming famous across the world, making it a perfect combination of peace and music.
4. Champaran (Bihar): Where you can feel the history
This is not a typical tourist destination. This is for those who want to feel something while travelling. This is the same historical land from where Mahatma Gandhi started his Satyagraha movement. That story is still alive in the air here. Coming here, you do not just see a place, but live those pages of history which changed the destiny of India.
5. Jorhat (Assam): Heart of the Northeast and the tea city
(We have combined it with Majuli, but it is a great destination separately too)
Jorhat is called the ‘Heart of the North-East’. It is a paradise for those who love to visit tea gardens. You can also see how your favorite tea is made at a tea research center like Toklai. It is a peaceful and beautiful city which immerses you in the culture of the North East
