5 Places In India You Will Like In Heaven
India is a place that has an abundance of everything. Be it the different cultures, traditions, religions or even beautiful sights, India’s richness is paralleled by none. Hence, it is no surprise why this beautiful country is known all over the world as Incredible India.
Being so diverse in all perspectives, India does not disappoint in terms of gorgeous places that are worth a visit. There are a lot of locations and monuments that are known to people in every corner. However, India is also gifted with places that not many know about. These places redefine beauty in unique ways, and inadvertently feel unrealistic. While the list of such surreal locations is quite long, here a few of them that rank right up there with the best.
1. Nubra Valley, Ladakh
The Nubra Valley is popularly known as ‘ Moon Land’. This is because, during the winter season, its surface resembles the moon and reaching this place is as difficult as the moon itself. The Valley shows a different face in every season. The summers are characterized by lush green meadows flooded with pink and yellow roses. This offers a sight to behold. Situated at a height of 10,000 feet, it can only be visited with a valid permit.Best Time to Visit – To enjoy the valley in all its glory, it is advisable to avoid the winters. The best months to visit Nubra Valley are June to September.
The major attraction of a trip to Nubra is traveling over the so-called or hyped, falsely claimed highest motorable road, Khardung La Pass. Nubra Valley is an ideal place to fit into the acclimatization schedule of your Ladakh trip once you reach Leh because it is at a lower altitude than Leh, at an average altitude of 10000 Feet or 3048 Mtrs
Please note that climbing to a very high altitude of Khardung La from Leh and then sleeping at a low altitude of Nubra Valley DOES HELP tremendously in acclimatization
