5. Kerala Backwaters
The backwaters are a beautiful chain of lakes and lagoons along the Arabian sea coast and definitely shouldn’t be missed. Ferries here will take you anywhere and you can even hire a houseboat to stay in. In the Kuttanad region of Alappuzha, you’ll also be treated to boat races, where you will find snake boats that can hold up to a hundred oarsmen. Thousands of fans line the riverbanks and cheer on their favourite teams which make for a great atmosphere. There are dozens of villages and communities throughout this area which you can visit and get a real sense of everyday life and culture in this interesting place.
With backwaters, forts, beaches, palm trees, fishermen, hamlets and churches, Kerala is one of the most photogenic places God ever made. You should be there with your camera dangling from your neck and vouchers of tour packages clutched firmly in your hands.
6. Living Root Bridges, Meghalaya
What seems to appear straight out of a fantasy movie, the Living Root Bridges have to be seen to be believed! Some of these roots are more than a hundred feet long and are strong enough to carry the weight of fifty people at one time. Located in Meghalaya, they are part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site and you won’t stop clicking. Do carry an extra memory card and some battery backup.
