Dear Ladies,
We
have, all of us, in varying ways and at different
times, thought of conquering the worlds and going away to any
place
that we want to and would like to visit - Just to be able to
get up
and leave for some distant destination according to our
whims! Mostly
though, the practicalities of safety and security have held
us back.
Keeping that in mind, we thought of introducing all our lady
friends
to those destinations across India which one can visit,
without
worrying about the safety measures and other such
shenanigans.
not only one of the most beautiful places in India but it is
one of
the safest, especially for women. We have been made to
believe that if
you do not want to go down the usual touristy path, there are
always a
lot of fun things to do here! One of our favourites was to
wander
around and discover the new places around.
Next, we suggest Hampi, which is a serene and beautiful place
that
holds up the quintessence of charm that lies in life in the
Indian
Tungabhadra and watch the sun set, wondering about this vast
world and
its tiny beautiful details that make life so much more
colourful. The
healthy spattering of locals, tourists, hippies and priests
makes it a
magnet for vibrancy! We are told that travelling at night is
also not
a problem here as it is quite safe mostly.
If you are one of those who happen to be interested in
architecture
and heritage, well then, we would like to draw your attention
to
Orchha in Madhya Pradesh. This is one of those Indian
medieval towns,
lost to the world. It was founded by the Bundela kings in the
16th
century and now stands as a mystery on its own. Palaces and
temples
monument, every pillar has a story of its own, to tell. It is
perfectly safe here, to roam around and literally begin to
discover an
era that has bygone. It has the power to charm you into
becoming a
part of its oblivion!
Enchanting as old world sculpting and monuments are, one
cannot miss
Khajuraho. At first sound, it does not sound like the safest
of places
tricks to this trade! If you stay around the locals at all
given times
and reach your destination before darkness hits, you should
be safe.
Another tip is to behave like the locals around there. This
seems to
work almost everywhere we go. Khajuraho is a beautiful place
with
immemorial and immortal sandstone monuments which capture our
imagination every single time and push it further beyond!
And
of course, one cannot forget to mention Tawang in Arunachal
Pradesh.
Tucked away in a far corner of Arunachal Pradesh, the town’s
name
literally means ‘the chosen one’. It houses one of the
largest and
oldest monasteries in the country and is indeed a special
place. Added
to the historical value, the place can also wow with its
stretches of
The most unforgettable experience is that of the Galden
Namgey Lhatse
monastery or the celestial paradise. The land of mighty
mountains, a
hundred lakes and some of the most vibrant festivals and the
birthplace of the 6th Llama, this incredible place welcomes
every
traveller with open arms. It is mostly untouched by any sort
of unrest
that might plague other parts of AP, thus making it one of
the safest
places for all and mostly women.
