You Don’t Need Magic To Disappear, All You Need Is A Destination in India
India is an incredible country. The oceans, divinity, nature is something always people look upon. From the rocky terrains to smooth sandy beaches, from north to south and east to west, on the blue sea and lush land, the eternal globetrotter’s vacations begin in India.
Here is a list of top 10 destinations that make it to the list of ‘Must-Visit’ destinations in India for all travellers:
Manali, Himachal Pradesh
Already visited by most of us, Manali never fails to make it to any list about beating the heat of May. Forever charming, this place never fails to make you go awestruck. Thick forests and cool breeze characterize the hill station. Major attractions include Hadimba Temple, Vashisth, monasteries, Solang Valley, Rohtang Pass and Club House.

The land of Yoga and Ayurveda, Kerala is also eminent for its one of the most ancient Martial Art forms ‘Kalaripayattu’, authentic panchakarma treatments, mohiniattam, and nerve-wracking adventures.
Goa
The smallest state of India, Goa, is more than scenic beaches and trance parties. A kaleidoscopic blend of Portuguese and Indian culture, sweetened with sun-kissed beaches, appetizing seafood, and solace, there is no place in India like it. Goa’s biggest attraction is undoubtedly the virtual shimmering sand stretches along the Arabian sea, but it also draws visitors for its Portuguese architecture and heritage which is still alive in the form of whitewashed churches, colourful catholic ceremonies, stunning cathedrals of old Goa, and local houses.
