With winter breezing in, it's the perfect time to plan a weekend escape from the bustle of Delhi. Make the most of the long weekends this November and December by heading to one of these stunning destinations. Delhi to Neemrana In Rajasthan’s Alwar district, Neemrana is a historic town with a regal past.
The Neemrana Fort, built by the descendants of Rajput warrior-king Prithviraj Chauhan in 1464, was later restored as a luxurious hotel. Just a short drive from Delhi, the town also offers access to Sariska National Park, ideal for an overnight safari adventure. Here, you can stay at Neemrana Fort Palace to soak in the historical ambiance.
The terrace views over the city make for a magical setting, especially during the autumn sunsets, perfect for chai and cookies with a royal touch. Delhi to Agra A short drive from Delhi, Agra is a must-visit for both newcomers and those returning to see the city beyond the ramparts of the iconic Taj Mahal and Agra Fort. Add Fatehpur Sikri, a historical marvel built by Mughal emperor Akbar to your city itinerary, or visit Itmad-ud-Daulah and Mehtab Bagh, Agra’s splendid royal garden.
You should also keep an evening to savour the many street delicacies in the city’s bustling Sadar Bazaar market, and get your hands on a pair of great leather shoes.
