Undoubtedly, India has a lot to offer when it comes to incredible holiday destinations and places worth visiting. From ice-capped mountains in the North, sand dunes in the west to scenic beaches in the South of India, one can enjoy every landscape without having to venture out of the country.
Places like Shimla, Manali, Jaisalmer, Kashmir, Goa and Uttarakhand are already quite famous among people and are thronged by lakhs of tourists every year. Meanwhile, there are certain regions which have way more to offer but are hardly explored. But being less popular, this also implies that those least places are the cleanest and prettiest of all.
