A visit to a pilgrim is an evolving journey in itself. People from around the globe of all faiths make a pilgrimage, often to a shrine or place of significance, to experience spiritual enlightenment and understanding of the universe. A pilgrimage is far from exclusively for religious inducement. People make pilgrimages to understand the gravitas of that place, self-discovery, to embrace the ancient art and architecture, meet new people and make memories, and to enjoy local ambience and food.
May is the perfect time to plan your summer break. Why not hit your favourite holiday destination before it gets jam-packed and crowded? Make the best out of this time to surprise your family and friends with an unplanned outdoor vacation.
Visiting a pilgrimage place brings you closer to your emotional self. The journey of self-exploration, coming across the spiritual culture and learning about the age-old set of beliefs brings about more understanding of life.
Travelling in May can be much more comfortable as students' vacations start. Hence, planning family trips is much more feasible around this time of the year. You can also utilise the extra money from your new appraisals here. You can skip the hot summer of your hometown and head to a cool hill station.
Cherish the architectural significance of beautiful temples, seek blessings, participate in the traditional rituals and come back home with popular souvenirs.
