With Independence Day falling on Monday, you have a long weekend to spend with your friends and family. Planning a short holiday with the family is the ideal way to celebrate independence and relax. Walk down to these eight best places to celebrate in unique style.
You can book your tickets to Agra and go for an outing with your family. Agra features the Taj Mahal, the most popular tourist attraction in India. The beautiful monument boasts of India’s rich cultural history and unique architecture. Enjoy the architectural beauty of Agra by staying in a family suite like OYO 8095 Hotel Taj Castle.
Hampi is another destination where you can pay your visit during the Independence day weekend. It is known as the city of ruins as it showcases the history of the Vijayanagara empire through royal complexes, forts, and temples. Make reservations at one of the premium family hotels in Hampi and learn about India’s history through its featured tourist sites.
Another historical place to experience patriotism during Independence week is the Kargil War Memorial in Ladakh. The Kargil War Memorial was constructed by the Indian army to pay homage to the Kargil war martyrs. Book your stay at one of the best resorts near me for a day outing with family, like OYO 89391 Hotel Mountain View, and enjoy the royal beauty of the memorial.
Located on the banks of the Saraswati River, Queen’s Stepwell is one of the oldest stepwells in Gujarat, which is a testament to the superior craftsmanship of the era. It is in the form of an inverted temple with multiple levels, each having carved pillars and more than 800 sculptures.
Reserve your accommodation at one of the best family resorts in Gujarat, like OYO Townhouse 482 Hotel Terrazzo Suites, and check out this place on your trip to Gujrat.
Enjoy the live celebration at the Red Fort this Independence Day with your loved ones. You can witness the honourable Prime Minister addressing the nation and hoisting the flag. However, since there would be a high rush and security checks, it’s advisable to queue up early morning (by 5 am) to get an entry. So it is better to plan your trip well and come to Delhi in advance. Book the best family resorts in Delhi near Red Fort. Consider OYO 3410 Hotel Shiva Intercontinental, which is only 6KM away from Red Fort.
Plan a trip to the pink city to visit Jantar Mantar. It has the world’s largest sundial constructed by Maharajah Sawai Jai Singh II for his love of celestial objects. The architecture and science behind this monument prove India has always been beyond its time for centuries. Book a family hotel in Rajasthan, like OYO 37375 Hotel Govindam Plaza, for a comfortable stay near the monument.
Another incredible destination to visit is the Jhansi fort in Uttar Pradesh. This is the fort where Rani Lakshmi Bai fought against the British and began India’s first battle for independence. Reserve your stay at OYO 92205 Kasturi Inn to explore the significance of Jhansi Fort at your own pace.
Located near Surat, Dandi is known as India’s salt production centre. Travel to this place to learn how Gandhiji, in his non-violent manner, started the Dandi March during India’s struggle for independence. Stay at one of the best resorts in Surat, like Townhouse 639 Hotel Citadel 2, for best-in-class services and amenities.
Whether during independence or on other days of the year, you must visit these places as they hold immense importance in India’s rich history and how it achieved independence. Visit these places with your friends or family and celebrate Independence week by paying homage to the freedom fighters who fought until their last breath to give India independence.
