\nAgra<\/a>-Fatehpur Sikri<\/b> (<\/strong>Uttar Pradesh)<\/strong> – These places do not need any introduction in particular.
\nThe magical allure of the Taj Mahal draws tourists to Agra like moths to a wondrous flame. But the Taj is not a stand-alone attraction. The legacy of the Mughal empire has left a magnificent fort and a liberal sprinkling of fascinating tombs and mausoleums.
\n40Km west of Agra Fatehpur-Sikri is another magnificent fortified ancient city. It was the short-lived capital of the Mughal empire. The city was an Indo-Islamic masterpiece. It has magnificent Palace and Jama mosque which are worth your time and money.
\nRanthambore<\/a>-Sawai Madhopur (<\/b>Rajasthan) – Sawai Madhopur, originally called Madhopur, is a significant district of Rajasthan. It is full of histories and legends. The main tourist attractions in Sawai Madhopur are the famous Ganesha Temple, the Chamatkar temple, the Ranthambore Fort and the Khandar Fort. The places around Sawai Madhopur are also thick with historical ruins. Sawai Madhopur have the famous national park of Ranthambore.
\nRanthambore National Park is one of the largest national parks in northern India, covering an area of 392 km\u00b2. It contains a huge variety of animals, birds and reptiles within it. The park is most famous for it’s diurnal tigers. The land of legends-Ranthambore (established-1980) in every case is unusual among the Indian reserves, with one and only reason, the presence of large number of Bengal tigers in the arena. It is the ideal destination to find a major tiger territory. If anybody knows Ranthambore it’s all because of its existence as the Tigers’ Paradise which was once the private hunting ground for the kings of Jaipur.

\nJim Corbet National Park – Ramgarh<\/a> (<\/b>Uttarakhand):\u00a0<\/b>Jim Corbett National Park is tucked away in the foothills of the Sub-Himalayan belt and is unsurpassed in scenic beauty. Situated in Nainital District of newly created state Uttarakhand, the oldest national park of Asia is named after the famous British hunter – Edward James Corbett. The reserve has a greater variety of flora and fauna. That’s all natural! After all, you are going to enter India’s first tiger reserve under the Project Tiger in India. It is a vast Eco-Sphere that is blessed with the plethora of wildlife where you can enjoy several activities like jungle safaris, trekking, bird watching, fishing, elephants ride and many more.
\nKhajuraho <\/a>– Orchcha (<\/b>Madhya Pradesh)<\/b>: Architecturally beautiful Khajuraho with historical wonder Orchcha in Madhya Pradesh.
\nIn the temple architecture of India, the Khajuraho complex remains unique. The erotic carvings that swathe Khajuraho\u2019s three groups of World Heritage\u2013listed temples are among the finest temple art in the world. The Western Group of temples, in particular, contains some stunning sculptures.
\nThis historic village on the banks of the boulder-strewn Betwa River showcases some fabulous architecture similar to that of nearby Khajuraho, albeit without such high-quality artistry. The atmosphere in Orchha, though, is far more laid-back and hassle-free, which makes for a relaxing stay.

\nAmritsar<\/a>\u00a0(<\/b>Punjab)<\/strong>:\u00a0Amritsar is home to Sikhism\u2019s holiest shrine, the spectacular Golden Temple, one of India’s most serene and humbling sights. It is the spiritual and cultural centre of the Sikh religion, and they are rightfully very proud of the city and their very beautiful and unique Gurdwara. Chanting of Bhajans in the Gurudwara and tastiest food of the streets will give you a glorious experience.
\nDalhausi\u00a0<\/b>(<\/strong>Himachal Pradesh)<\/strong><\/a>:\u00a0Dalhousie is a quiet hill station with little night life, best suited for people who want to de-stress, who like the quiet, serene atmosphere, and for honeymooners, ideal for long walks picnics and treks. It is not recommended for people who want discos, malls and multiplexes. While there is plenty to do, see and experience, Dalhousie exudes an old-world charm. There are lot of places around Dalhausi which are worth a visit. Most popular destination is Khajjar which is also known as Mini Switzerland.
\nAlwar – Sariska Tiger Reserve<\/strong><\/a> (<\/strong>Rajasthan)<\/strong>:\u00a0Alwar has a rambling palace with an above-average museum packed with royal booty, testifying to its former importance as capital of a Rajput state. Alwar is perhaps the oldest of the Rajasthani kingdoms, forming part of the Matsya territories of Viratnagar in 1500 BC.It is also the nearest town to Sariska Tiger Reserve, where you\u2019ll find a grand hunting lodge that is another relic of Alwar\u2019s royal past.
\nEnclosed within the dramatic, shadowy folds of the Aravallis, the Sariska Tiger Reserve is a tangle of remnant semi deciduous jungle and craggy canyons sheltering streams and lush greenery.
