Honeymoon Destinations: A Visit To Darjeeling

Darjeeling, the popular summer retreat in India, is one of the hottest honeymoon destinations. "The Queen of hills" as the city is fondly called showcases verdant landscapes, misty hills, luscious tea gardens and a year-round pleasant climate. The couples get to see cascading waterfalls, ruins of the colonial lifestyle, dense forests, wildlife and the nature in its purest form.

Aside from the nature"s attractions Darjeeling also offers an experience of British heritage to the honeymooning couples. There are a plethora of resorts and mansions that serve as the perfect example of an inn in the British colonial era and the hotel Windamere is one such resort! Situated on historic Observatory Hill where Darjeeling began, the couples can enjoy a stunning view of the snow-capped Himalayas which is a treasure for sensualists.

The newlyweds staying at Windamere"s Tinker Belle's Cottage will feel as if they"re pioneering together and experiencing a truly one-of-a-kind honeymoon. Classic-meets- sumptuous interiors take the couples back to the Raj era, regular opera recitals, deliciously Victorian dining and a sensual spa, there's a fairytale feel about this Himalayan getaway.

The cottage is set apart from the rest of the hotel giving the couples ample of opportunities to enjoy private moments. They can enjoy a private meal in the cottage or can join the other guests in the dining hall.

But Darjeeling is not all about spending a serene evening with a hot cup of tea and your spouse in your arms and watching the breathtaking sunsets at the Tiger Hill. There"s more to it! It"s a pure bliss for the couples who are ardent wildlife fan. The snow leopard sanctuary, which boasts of running the only breeding programme in Southern Asia is well worth the hour's walk from town. Another must see place for the lovers of flora and fauna is the Lloyd Botanical Garden, here they can check out orchids and various kinds of flora.

If the honeymooners want to experience adrenaline pumping adventures then a ride in the Darjeeling Rangeet Valley Passenger Ropeway fits the bill. There are other options too like water rafting and trekking that give you the thrill of experiencing the nature in its wild. That explains why Darjeeling ranks on top 10 of every travel magazine"s list on the most adored and cherished honeymoon destinations
