If you are a heritage lover, legacy, culture and magnificent archaeological sites enthral you. Your sojourn will be incomplete without taking a stroll at old discovered ruins, capturing the essence of emperors' grandeur palaces and learning about the UNESCO World Heritage sites. The beautiful caves, monuments, and sculptures will be your picturesque stoppage on every excursion. Digging into the stories of ancient villages, temples, rulers' dynasties and their battles will give you a back-walk into history.
When you are planning a trip under Rs. 20,000 that does not break the glass ceiling and your bank balance, then we suggest that you plan early and plan smart. An unplanned getaway will not only disturb the monthly expenditure but will affect your trip once you are at the location. Try to book the commute and hotel in advance. It won't hurt to check the general price list of the activities you wish to take part in.
August is the time for you to check out that holiday list on your calendar and plan a getaway from the mundane ‘stuck-up-in-the-traffic’ life. If work is hectic and you cannot plan a long vacation, look for staycations, weekend getaways or short trips that can keep you sane.
A heritage tourist has an encouraging socio-economic effect on the community. On a heritage trip, the tourist learns a lot about a location, it's history and more.
