1. To paint the real color of festivals:
- Kolkata (for Dussehra):If you did not see Durga Puja of Kolkata on Dussehra, I did not see anything! Vishal and artistic pandals, dhaka echo, sindoor played and atmosphere of celebration all around… Believe me, you will remember this experience throughout your life.
- Mysore (for Dussehra):If you want to see Dussehra in royal style, then there is no better place than Mysore. A grand procession of elephants, Virajit Chamundeshwari Devi on gold and the illuminated Mysore Palace, Dussehra here is like a dream come true.
- Jaipur or Udaipur (for Diwali):Diwali means festival of lights. And when the historical forts, palaces and markets are illuminated with thousands of diyas and lights, the beauty of these ‘Pink City’ and ‘Nagri of Lakes’ doubles. Here you can experience a royal Diwali.
2. For peace and peace in the mountains:
- Rishikesh / Haridwar:If you want to spend a few moments of peace and spirituality away from the noise of festivals, then turn to these cities settled on the banks of the Ganges. Dip in the Ganges in the morning, the grand view of Ganga Aarti in the evening and the fresh air of the mountains will erase all your fatigue.
- Manali / Shimla:In the month of October, a slight coolness starts here and the crowd of tourist is also less. The clean sky and the beautiful views of the mountains all around will refreshed your heart and mind.
3. For something different and different experience:
- Varanasi (for Diwali):The view of the ghats of Varanasi on Diwali is amazing. The celebration of Ganga Ghat and Dev Deepawali adorned with millions of lamps will make your festival very special.
