Andaman, Kashmir, Goa and Udaipur top couples' honeymoon choices
Beaches, snow or royal splendour: four destinations are the first pick of newly married couples planning their first trip together.
Where to go on the first trip after the wedding is a question many couples face. Some want a quiet beach, some want snow-covered mountains, and some want a royal setting. Andaman, Kashmir, Goa and Udaipur, which together meet all three wishes, are couples' first choice for a honeymoon. Each place has its own speciality, so it is important first to decide what you like.
Andaman is a good option for a honeymoon in a peaceful setting by the sea. Couples can try activities such as snorkelling and scuba diving. The budget may run somewhat higher than at other destinations, but the time spent there is sure to be enjoyable. Flying is the best way to reach Andaman, as it cannot be reached directly by train or road.
In Andaman, visitors can also see the Cellular Jail, a historic memorial of India's freedom struggle. Beautiful photographs can be taken on the beach at sunset, so there are plenty of chances to preserve memories.
For those tired of beaches and looking for a snowy destination, there is no better place than Kashmir. Srinagar, Gulmarg and Pahalgam are considered the best honeymoon spots. Kashmir is said to feel like seeing heaven on earth. Couples can enjoy a shikara ride, take in mountain views and join mountain activities. Skiing on the snow is also possible.
Goa holds a somewhat distinct appeal among Indians. Its beaches and overall atmosphere draw people strongly. In Goa, visitors can enjoy seafood, take an evening walk on the beach and do a photoshoot by day. Many historic churches can also be seen there.
For a royal experience along with a romantic atmosphere, Udaipur is a perfect choice. Visitors can take a tour of the lakes, see historic palaces and enjoy beautiful sunsets. The traditional food and markets there will also please your partner.
In short, couples have these options: Andaman or Goa for those who like quiet beaches, Kashmir for snow and adventure, and Udaipur for royal palaces, lakes and sunsets.
