Top destinations in India that are perfect for kids

When you are a parent with a young child or a toddler, planning a trip to a relatives’ place might appear to be a tough mission, let alone travelling for leisure. But, given the fact there are several child-friendly destinations in India, all you need is to go ahead and plan a trip. Here, we share some places that are perfect to visit with your kids for the next vacation.

Agra

Taj Mahal in Agra, the fort and other monuments in Fatehpur Sikri are perfect to be visited by children under 8 years of age with their parents or guardians. As per a recent development, there will soon be breastfeeding cabins at the Taj Mahal, making it more convenient for new moms visiting the marble mausoleum.

Ranthambore National Park

Children are closer to nature than the grown-ups and this relationship can be further enhanced by parents by making a trip to the famous Ranthambore National Park. Taking your children to this special habitat of the wild is also a good way to teach them about being sensitive and friendly towards wildlife and nature that is as much a part of the earth as humans are.

Jaipur and Udaipur

Both of these historical cities with their forts and palaces have the potential to keep the young minds hooked to their architecture and history. For parents, it is like giving an experiential tour to their children before they learn the history lessons in a formal class.

Shimla

Shimla is one of the most visited hill stations in Himachal. Quite naturally, there are ample amenities in the town to make parents and their young ones feel comfortable. Unlike that remote or offbeat destination, Shimla is apt for families looking forward to spending some time with their younger members on the hills.

Rishikesh

It is the most reachable hill station for tourists living in and around Delhi. It is also believed to be a very sacred destination in India due to the presence of ancient shrines, ashrams and River Ganga flowing through the town. Being a spiritually vibrant place, Rishikesh should be visited by parents with their children in tow if they are keen that the younger generation grows well acquainted with the cultural and spiritual traditions of India.
