Thank God! Winters are
finally here with sweaters & socks, Sarso
ka saag, Daulat ki Chaat and
born-fire with all the warmth. Dilli ki Sardi is something which should
be in everyone's bucket list as it comes along with celebrations like Christmas,
Lohri, Basant Panchami, and, a variety of scrumptious food. I think it's the best
time to have fun & travel around as well but the question is When &
Where?
'Weekend' is the answer &
Where all? I'll be telling you in this Story:
1. Agra
Pack your bags for the upcoming weekend and head towards to this incredible city of Uttar Pradesh, known by the World for its- Taj Mahal. Agra has all our hearts because of this Wonderful White-Marbled monument which was made by the Mughal Emperor, Shahjahan for his third wife- Mumtaz Jahan which took 20 years to build by 20,000 workers.
Later, when Shah Jahan died,
he was buried next to his wife and that's one Love Story which will definitely
give you goosebumps when you visit Taj Mahal in Agra & Titlyy wants
you to experience this Architectural beauty along with other Mahals, forts
& Museums of this city.

2. Amritsar
Amritsar is a city that deserves to get ticked on your calendar this weekend. This small city has so much to offer, be it tempting food or its critical history. The Golden Temple is the pride of Amritsar where you will find solace when you sit near Sarovar(Pool of Nectar) and embrace the beautiful golden reflection of Shri Harmandir Sahib, the fifth Sikh Guru had designed the construction of it. His idea of building four gates of the Golden Temple was simply about welcoming everyone irrespective of their caste, creed, sex, and religion.
