Manali honeymoon packagesensure cheap and convenient travel around the entire valley

Manali is one of the oldest towns in the Kullu Valley. The place encompasses with the aura of romance everywhere, commencing from the hustle-bustle of mall road to the serene traditional foreigners that dominate ancient Manali to the villages beyond the Manu temple to the trails around the Hadimba temple. It can be easily called as one of the finest romantic destinations. The Hadimba goddess centers the Manali town and is the symbol and idol of worship for the people who resides at Manali. The mighty goddess also rules over the mountains erected with pure nature, and it is only after her permission that we get to enjoy the beautiful place to the utmost level. When we contemplate about Kullu Manali tours, the most significant keyword that flashes to our mind is Rohtang Pass which is a mandatory place to be visited. There are numerous honeymoon packages in Manali that will justify our expenses appropriately and would ensure a safe and exciting tour.

The weather in Manali differs variedly throughout the year. If we are fascinated to cool weather and snowfall then it the perfect place to enjoy the chilling winters from November to February. However, we can experience mild and pleasant weather in Manali during summers between the months of March to October. We recommend to avoid visiting to Manali in the month of monsoons i.e., from late July to August and even the first week of September. Another hindrance is that landslides and flooding are quite common on the Delhi to Manali highway in monsoon time. Although July-August experience heavy rainfall but again I must mention that its unique beauty is amazing when it rains.

Henceforth, the best time to visit Manali is between March and June when the scorching heat of sun is burning the lowlands of Northern India. The autumn season i.e., from the middle of September to late October is also an ideal time to visit. Although, the Kullu region gets over-crowded during the Dusshera festival. Alright, if we are fond of snow or snowfall, then we must visit Manali from late December to March to enjoy the picturesque of the snow in Rohtang Pass or Solang Valley. We may also view snowfall in January and February, depending on the weather.

I would infer that the months of April to June is the appropriate time to visit Manali, but we need to store in mind that in summers, huge number of people from the northern parts of India invade this place and if we watch the crowds on Mall Road in the evening it can set us to serious shivers. We would feel that we are in Trade Fair of Pragati Maidan, Delhi because commencing from accommodation to food, then from shopping to cab fares, everything gets expensive in this peak season summer of holidays.

If we are looking for adventure sports, we should explore the season between December and February, which is the ideal time for rafting between May and September. People who seek for paragliding in Manali, is actually reliable on the weather of the current day.

If we get married in winters then it is perfect place to visit for honeymoons. The late November to February is the perfect time to explore Manali. It is one of those places where we would be able to observe enthralling snowfall in the winter months. We might also get an additional allowance from Manali honeymoon packages with deep discounts because the off-season highs with little sightseeing. As a result, we can observe similar loving birds chirping in the Manali and SolangValley area.
