Over several years, the world has seen astonishing heritage sites excavated from various locations across the globe. Some have been dug out based on historical evidences, or have been discovered by chance on the basis of rumors, or many have been unearthed and identified by UNESCO. You really have to take a tour around these heritage sites to believe the surreal experience of marvelous architectures, vibrant customs and outstanding sculptures.
At around Rs. 30, 000 you can actually look at planning a fairly lavish vacation with 2-3 star hotels, some fun-filled activities, moderately budgeted restaurants and bar with relishing delicacies, and commuting by flights. You can still travel by a train to save on to some amount which you can happily use up for shopping at the tourist markets. Pre-planning and pre-booking is still recommended to avoid any unplanned over expenditure.
