Seychelles will always be on the top of my
wishlist. An archipelago of 115 islands in the Indian Ocean, Seychelles has the
most beautiful and stunning beaches. A perfect getaway for a solo dream
holiday. Capital Victoria is located on
the island Mahe, which is the largest island of Seychelles. Praslin island is
another easily accessible island which homes the Vallee de mai nature reserve, a Unesco World Heritage Site , where we can
see wild coco de mer – the world’s largest coconut. Tiny La Digue with its
splendid beaches is a perfect place to be. Unique Granite rock formations one
can see here are just a visual treat.

Lie at the beaches for hours together and keep
observing the sea shore, lazing around, walk in the national parks and natural
reserves, and walking purposelessly sometimes, trying out local dishes……..Oh I wish,
I could get this holiday!!
There are
adventure things to do as well like the undersea diving, snorkeling, boating
and cruising!!!
Seychelles is
one of the perfect places to be!!!

Next on my list
is Majuli Island which is the largest
riverine island on the waters of mighty Brahmaputra. It’s said about the island
that it keeps on shrinking due to the erosion caused by river water and may be
in twenty years or so it will completely disappear. One has to take a ferry
ride from Jorhat to reach Majuli. The island is an absolute bliss for nature
lovers and a paradise or bird watchers. The island sees many species of
migratory birds. One can also enjoy the various colors of tribal culture and
get a feel of the tribal culture here. Majuli is also a hotspot for flora and
fauna.

Kashmir is another favorite. Unmatched in its beauty, It’s a sure
heaven on earth. Terrorism has hit the tourism business of Kashmir. But it’s my
heartfelt desire to visit Kashmir once. Smell the fragrance of flowers of Gulmarg
valley, Stay on houseboat on Dal-lake, encage in my soul the beauty of
mountains, glaciers and the meadows of Sonmarg, and get lost in the scenic
beauty of Pehalgam. Only if it was possible, I would spend an eternity in this
heavenly place.

Ladakh, the next on the list is located in the state of J&K.
The rocky mountains of Ladakh covered with snow and the clear deep blue water
of the lakes is breathtakingly beautiful. The place is no less than divine.
Untouched by human atrocities on nature, it’s a treat for the eyes and a
blessing for a photographer. I wish to travel to this place on a bike. A
romantic drive to Ladakh on a bike is a dream I would give anything for!!

Kanyakumari, is another on my wish list. It’s the southernmost
point of India where three seas, Indian Ocean, Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea meet.
This place therefore is called Triveni Sangam. Kanyakumari has got religious
significance. There are many temples worth visiting. Also there is a rock in
the mid of the water where its said that Swami Vivekananda meditated and
attained enlightenment. A rock memorial by the name of Vivekananda memorial has
been constructed here on the rock in the water which is one of the main
attractions of visitors. The sunrise and sunset as seen from here have
matchless beauty. One can see the sun in its various hues and colors as it
rises above the horizon in the morning and goes back to sleep somewhere beyond
the reach of eyes in the evening.
