Hi All,
Here are my recommendations:
Patnitop and Sanasar - Lovely hill-stations on the Jammu-Srinagar highway... are by-passed by most tourists, so not as famous as other tourist spots in Kashmir (thankfully!!)
Flag-lowering ceremony at the Wagah Border - An animated crowd on both sides, foot-stomping soldiers... Worth going to see the intensity in their eyes alone!
Kausani - Sleepy little town in Uttaranchal, often confused with Kasauli in Himachal... but unparalleled view of the majestic Himalayan peaks like Trishul and Nandadevi
Cherrapunji - There's more to this place than just being a statistic in Geography text books... with or without rainfall :)
Igatpuri in the monsoons (infact anyplace in the Sahyadris is magical from June to Sept)
Some journeys which are an experience in itself:
Drive from Gangtok to Nathula in Sikkim (from 6,500 odd feet to 14000 feet in less than 3 hours!!!)
Drive from Shillong to Cherrapunji, and helicopter ride from Guwahati to Shillong (only 20mins, but very pretty - view from above of the bramhaputra plus the khasi hills)
Cheers Nrupal
