The Magical Carousel of Delhi Capital Getaways: How to Make the G20 Long Weekend Unforgettable

Hello little explorers! The G20 long weekend is like a big, beautiful, colorful carousel , full of choices for where you could go and what you could see. Just like choosing your favorite animal on a carousel, we have picked five amazing places for you. All of them are close to Delhi Capital, just like your backyard is close to your home.

A Pink Jewel Called Jaipur: Where Fairy Tales Come to Life

Imagine stepping into a fairy tale where everything is painted in shades of pink. Just like Cinderella’s castle, Jaipur is like a jewel box filled with wonders. Here you can find palaces that are older than your grandparents’ grandparents, like the Hawa Mahal and Amber Fort. And guess what? You can even shop for little treasures like necklaces and cool clothes at places like Johari Bazaar.

“An apple doesn’t fall far from the tree,” they say. And when you taste the local food like Ghewar and Dal Baati, you’ll know that the apple here tastes like nowhere else!

Jungle Book Adventure in Jim Corbett

Do you love “The Jungle Book”? Well, Mowgli would feel right at home in Jim Corbett National Park. Picture this: You’re in a jeep, just like you’re riding on Bagheera’s back, and you’re looking for amazing animals. Elephants, tigers, and more than 600 kinds of birds live here! Yuri Gagarin, the first person to go into outer space, would have loved to see this “jungle universe.”

The Taj Mahal: A Love Story Written in Stone

If you’ve ever built a sandcastle, you’ll be amazed by the Taj Mahal. It’s like a love letter, but instead of paper, it’s made out of beautiful white stone. And if you think ice cream is the sweetest thing ever, wait till you try Agra’s Jalebi and Petha.

Amritsar: Where Hearts and Minds Find Peace

Imagine you find a magic pond, and when you touch the water, you feel all happy and peaceful. That’s a little bit like visiting the Golden Temple in Amritsar. Here, you can listen to stories of bravery at the Wagah Border and Jallianwala Bagh.

The Twin Stars: Haridwar and Rishikesh

You’ve heard of Batman and Robin, right? Think of Haridwar and Rishikesh as the Batman and Robin of peaceful places. In Haridwar, people gather around the river like it’s a huge, shiny campfire and offer their prayers. And Rishikesh is where you can pretend to be Indiana Jones while going on trekking adventures!

Your Perfect Getaway Plan

Remember, just like Yuri Gagarin got to explore space, you get to explore these wonderful places close to the Delhi Capital. So, as the G20 long weekend comes closer, make your plans to hop onto this magical carousel of adventures near Delhi Capital.

Remember, the world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page. So let’s read many pages this G20 long weekend!
