As the wedding season is here, couples are searching for destinations to plan their perfect honeymoon. Many might be thinking abroad, while others might be interested in exploring an Indian destination. We bring you popular places in the country shown in Bollywood films to inspire your romantic holiday together.
Honeymoon In Jammu & Kashmir
‘Kashmir Ki Kali’, ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’, ‘Rockstar’, ‘Silsila’, ‘Raazi’, and more have been shot in Jammu and Kashmir. It is called paradise on Earth because of its pristine beauty. Couples can book a stay in a houseboat on Dal Lake at Rs 1,100 as the starting price.
In the winter season, the destinations in Kashmir are no less than a wonderland in animated films. Gulmarg and Sonmarg have already witnessed snowfall, making them perfect spots for honeymoon couples looking to spend some quality time amid the beauty of nature. You can also relish Kashmiri cuisine, buy woollen clothes, indulge in shopping for souvenirs, and appreciate the craftsmanship of artisans apart from enjoying adventurous activities. You can skip Pahalgam as it is still developing, and there is not much to do there.
Honeymoon In Rajasthan
Destinations in Rajasthan have been made quite famous in Bollywood films. With Bunny and Naina exploring the vibrant city of Udaipur in ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’, you can plan your honeymoon here. You can visit City Palace, Jagmandir, Lake Pichola, Fateh Sagar Lake, and Ambrai Ghat among other spots while relishing the Rajasthani cuisine.
Jaipur is another destination that has been spotted in ‘Jodhaa Akbar’, ‘Ghajini’, ‘Rang De Basanti’ and many others. If you club it with Udaipur, Jaisalmer, and Jodhpur, it can be a week-long holiday filled with a lot of fun and love, especially in the winter season.
Honeymoon In Himachal Pradesh
‘Jab We Met’, ‘Taal’, and ‘Lootera’ are among a few Hindi films that have been shot amid the majestic hills of Himachal Pradesh. Some of the iconic and romantic shots in the films must be on your list where you would like to recreate those scenes with your spouse.
Spiti Valley, Khajjiar, Dalhousie, Manali, Kasol, Kullu, Kufri, Kinnaur, and Sangla offer a mix of tourist and lesser-visited spots. Could you ask for a more romantic setting than being surrounded by snow and enjoying evenings beside a bonfire? Depending on your budget and days of planning, you can pick destinations. You should avoid McLeod Ganj in the upcoming months because it gets too crowded.
Honeymoon In Leh Ladakh
Ladakh has also featured in films like ‘3 Idiots’, ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’, ‘Lakshya’, and more. In the winter, it is quite chilly up there, so we suggest couples carry their warmers and jackets.
From experiencing snowfall to witnessing breathtaking landscapes, Ladakh has a lot to offer tourists. You can visit Leh Palace, Pangong Tso lake, Khardung La Pass, Nubra Valley, Zanskar Valley, etc. You can escape the polluted cities and hustle of routine life to spend quality time in the lap of nature.
