Thiruvananthapuram district is one of the most diverse destinations in all of Kerala. Within a single district, you have the Padmanabhaswamy Temple, the Napier Museum, Kovalam Beach, the Aazhimala Shiva Temple, Poovar, the backwater canals and Kathakali, and most visitors only scratch the surface.

The Padmanabhaswamy Temple has stood at the heart of the city for centuries, its gopuram reflected in the temple tank at dawn before the crowds arrive. The Napier Museum sits quietly nearby, one of the most beautiful buildings in Kerala, consistently underrated.

Drive south and everything changes. Kovalam's crescent bay, the red and white lighthouse above the waves, the clifftops looking out at the Arabian Sea. Further south near Vizhinjam, the Aazhimala Shiva rises 58 feet above the coastline facing the ocean with a stillness that stops you mid-step.

Then Poovar, where the Neyyar River meets the Arabian Sea across a narrow sandspit, the backwater canals stretching behind it into the kind of silence that only Kerala can produce.

And when the evening comes, Kathakali. Hours of preparation for a performance that has been part of this culture for over 300 years.

Kyra came from the United States for three days in Jaipur before heading to Delhi. Short, intentional and well spent. Jaipur in two days with a cooking class, a guide who
knows the city properly and time enough to actually feel the place rather than just tick it off.

Jaipur rewards people who slow down inside it. The walled Pink City, built in 1727 by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II, is one of the earliest planned cities in India, laid out in a grid that still holds today. The bazaars, the havelis, the street food, the crafts. Two days is the minimum to do it any justice. Kyra did exactly that and we are glad she took the time to share how it felt.

Matthew and Edith spent three days in Jaipur as part of their seventeen day journey from the United States through Delhi, Agra, Ranthambore, Jaipur, Mandawa, Bikaner, Jaisalmer, Jodhpur and Udaipur.

Galta Ji, known as the Monkey Temple, sits in a natural gorge in the Aravalli Hills on the eastern edge of the city. Built in the 18th century, the complex of temples and sacred kunds, natural spring fed pools, is a working pilgrimage site rather than a tourist attraction. The Brahmin priests, the hundreds of rhesus monkeys that give it its name, the sound of water and bells in a narrow gorge that feels entirely removed from the city below.

Jal Mahal sits in the middle of Man Sagar Lake, a palace built by Maharaja Madho Singh I in the 18th century that appears to float on the water. Only the top floor is visible above the surface. The four floors below it are submerged. It has never been open to the public. Jaipur rewards people who look beyond the obvious.

At 3,650 metres above sea level, Kaza is the sub-divisional headquarters of the Spiti Valley, a remote, high-altitude cold desert tucked deep in the mountains of Himachal Pradesh. It sits along the Spiti River, surrounded by bare, layered peaks that shift colour through the day from brown to gold to deep violet at dusk.
This is not a place that overwhelms you immediately. It earns you slowly, through the thin air, the silence, and the quiet rhythm of life at altitude. Monks walk the same lanes as trekkers. Prayer flags snap in the wind above flat-roofed homes. The nights stay cold even in summer.

The Sakya Tangyud Monastery dominates the hillside above the old town, ornate and startlingly vivid against the stark landscape around it. Higher up, a hilltop shrine watches over everything. And above the town, the golden Buddha sits facing the valley, looking out over the Spiti River and the mountains beyond.
In summer, patchwork fields of green and gold line the valley floor. In winter, the roads close, the snow comes deep, and Kaza turns inward. The town that felt remote in July becomes almost unreachable by December.

At night, this far from any city, the Milky Way is not a suggestion. It is a ceiling.
Kaza is not a destination you pass through. It is the one that stays with you long after you have left.

Built in 1745, Jai Mahal Palace originally housed three Prime Ministers of Jaipur's princely state. Few hotels possess such a layered history, and even fewer display it so elegantly. Set within 18 acres of meticulously landscaped Mughal gardens, the palace exemplifies Indo-Saracenic architecture, a synthesis of Rajput, Mughal, and colonial European design that Jaipur excels at. Its 94 rooms and six suites provide sweeping views of the city and palace gardens.

For dining, Cinnamon presents royal Indian cuisine inspired by traditions of the princely states. Giardino offers Italian fare poolside. Marble Arch features all-day international dining. The Marigold Bar serves cocktails and single malts in a setting as golden as its name suggests. This property remains true to its heritage and is stronger for it.

Emily, Annette and Leanne came from Australia and spent sixteen days driving through Himachal Pradesh with their driver Jassi. They started in Rishikesh and worked their way through Shimla, Sarahan, Sangla, Kalpa and Tirthan Valley before finishing in Dharamshala. It is a route that takes you through some of the most remote and breathtaking terrain in India, where roads cling to mountainsides, valleys drop sharply, and the landscape changes completely every few hours.

Jassi navigated all of it, sixteen days on roads that demands experience, patience and a genuine knowledge of the mountains, and he did so with the kind of professionalism and warmth that makes a difficult journey feel effortless. Emily recorded this review at the end of the trip, and the warmth in what she says is something we are genuinely proud of.

International Museum Day on 18 May is a global celebration of culture. India hosts some of the world’s most extraordinary collections. Here are five you need to put on your list.

1. Indian Museum, Kolkata: Asia's oldest museum, and still one of its finest. Everything from Egyptian mummies to Mughal coins under one roof. Founded in 1814, it predates the Smithsonian by three decades and holds over 100,000 artefacts across six sections, including art, archaeology and natural history.

2. National Museum, New Delhi: 5,000 years of Indian civilisation in a single building. The Dancing Girl of Mohenjo-daro alone is worth the visit. With 200,000 objects across 28 galleries, it is the largest museum in India by collection size.

3. Salar Jung Museum, Hyderabad: Mir Yousuf Ali Khan collected 43,000 objects from across the world. The result is unlike anything else in India. What makes it remarkable is the range: European paintings, Persian manuscripts, Indian armour and Japanese lacquerware, all acquired by a single person over one lifetime.

4. Calico Museum, Ahmedabad: Twenty visitors at a time, by appointment only. The world's finest textile collection and one of India's best-kept secrets. The collection spans 400 years of Indian weaving, with pieces that leading textile museums abroad have tried and failed to acquire.

5. Government Museum, Chennai: If you have ever seen a Chola bronze, it probably came from here. The Nataraja from Tiruvelangadu is extraordinary. The bronze gallery alone covers five dynasties and over a thousand years of South Indian craftsmanship.

Five cities. Five museums. Each one is a reason to travel.

Youri and Bianca came from Belgium for sixteen days, taking them across two completely different Indias. The first half was Varanasi, Jaipur, Agra and Delhi. The second half was Ladakh, which operates by entirely different rules.

The contrast between the two halves is what makes this trip hard to forget. The Mughal monuments of Delhi and Agra, the living pilgrimage city of Varanasi, and the pink sandstone of Jaipur. And then the jump to altitude. Khardung La, at 18,380 feet, is one of the highest motorable roads in the world and connects Leh to the Nubra Valley. Chang La at 17,688 feet on the way to Pangong. The Indus and Zanskar rivers meet at Nimmu, two different colours of water running side by side before they merge. Pangong Lake at 4,300 metres, a saltwater lake that extends across the Indian border into China, is impossibly blue against bare brown mountains. Sixteen days that held more contrast than most trips, three times as long.

The fire at Manikarnika Ghat in Varanasi has not gone out in over 3,000 years. Every cremation that takes place here is lit from that same flame. Not a new fire, not a symbolic one. The same continuous flame, kept alive through every monsoon, every century, every change of ruler and religion and empire that has passed through this city.

Varanasi is considered one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities on earth. The ghats that line the Ganges have been here longer than most of the world's great civilisations. Manikarnika is the most sacred of them all, the place where Hindus believe moksha, liberation from the cycle of rebirth, is granted to those cremated here. Families travel from across India to bring their dead to this ghat. There are very few places on earth that carry this kind of weight. Varanasi is one of them.

Erika and Annie flew in from Italy for eight days over Christmas, covering Delhi, Agra, Ranthambore, and Jaipur. This reel captures Delhi, where the trip began.

Old Delhi is best experienced slowly. A rickshaw through the lanes, stopping wherever something catches your eye, the spice markets, the street food, the mosques with their carved stone courtyards. Khari Baoli, Asia's largest spice market, sits in the middle of it all, a street that has been trading in cardamom, saffron and dried chillies for over four hundred years. Humayun's Tomb, completed in 1572, is the kind of monument that earns a long afternoon. Built by the Emperor's wife in his memory, it was the first garden tomb on the Indian subcontinent and the architectural blueprint for the Taj Mahal. The Red Fort, completed in 1648, served as the seat of Mughal imperial life for over two hundred years, its red sandstone walls stretching over two kilometres around the city. Delhi has a way of filling whatever time you give it.
