1) Manali , Himachal Pradesh

Surrounded on all sides with snow- capped mountains, tall deodar pines and the untouched waters of Beas River, Manali makes for one cool romantic retreat.

While adventurous couples opt for daring activities like paragliding, skiing, or mountaineering, more relaxed couples choose to enjoy the strikingly scenic views of Solang Valley from a riverside cottage. They can breathe in the crisp, chilly mountain air and let out a sigh of contentment.

Explore the foothills of the Himalayas, especially from the exhilarating train ride to the snowy summits.

2) The Jaisalmer Desert, Rajasthan

Confused about why a hot desert is one of the top romantic spots in India? However, this mystical desert offers you a night of rendezvous under the haven of shooting stars and a camel trek with a grand sunset.

And you can spend your time in one of the luxury tents with all the modern facilities as you relax with each other in peace, entirely isolated from the world.

If camping out in tents isn’t your thing, choose from the heritage rooms with an exquisite mix of character and splashes of color depicting the traditional culture of Rajasthan.

3) Jodhpur, Rajasthan

This alluring ‘Blue City’ is famously named for its light and/ or bright cobalt colored architecture all over the city.

As you stay in Mehrangarh Fort with its daunting perch atop a cliff, experience the heritage site through its intricately carved windows, overlooking the city.

For the classic luxury getaway, book a stay at the Umaid Bhawan Palace, with its sandcastle- like structure and set in 26 acres of lush manicured gardens.

4) Rann of Kutch, Gujarat

During the monsoon season, water typically covers this beautiful romantic places that stretches between India and Pakistan.

However, once the water dries up, this striking white desert turns into an expansively barren panorama, complete with pearlescent salt flats. 

If this place interests you, plan your trip during the Rann Utsav, a joyous festival held between November and March.

The festival brings colors, crowds and enchanting music to the otherwise serene landscape with clear blue skies overhead.

5) Kodagu, Karnataka

Kodagu or Coorg in Karnataka, famously known as the Scotland of India, brims with exotically verdant scenes; in addition, it features coffee plantations and stunning waterfalls.

Take in the clouds of mist unfurling over the skies as you taste some of the freshest coffee. 

Breathe the exotic spices as you sit back and relax in each other’s presence with Coorg’s sleepy, laid back way of life.

Take a stroll together through the plantations, meanwhile, observe the rich flora and fauna – including many bird species along with teak and sandalwood forests.
