    Known for their picturesque landscapes, pleasant weather, and rich cultural heritage, these destinations are perfect for anyone looking for a peaceful getaway or an adventurous exploration.

    Here are some charming hill stations that promise a rejuvenating experience.

    The Kalka-Shimla toy train ride is a major attraction offering beautiful views of hills.

    Munnar

    Munnar: Tea gardens and misty mountains

    Nestled in Kerala's Western Ghats, Munnar is renowned for its stunning tea gardens and misty mountains.

    The hill station provides a much-needed respite with its cool weather and green vistas.
