The pandemic has put a halt on all our travel plans but that doesn’t mean that we cannot put together a bucket list while we wait for things to get better. If you have always wanted to more explore of India, then you should definitely add these Indian cities to your list –
Madurai
Madurai is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. It gets tourists from all across the world. If you are a fan of old-style architecture then you will fall in love with this city in Tamil Nadu. You can take your time exploring the different temples, out of which Meenakshi Amman Temple is the most popular. When you are visiting, also make sure to try out the local cuisine. If you really want to experience everything that the city has to offer then visit during festival time.
Jaisalmer
Pretty streets and sandstone structures, this city that rises out of the Thar Desert is a treat for the senses. There is so much to do and see. The most prominent landmark that should find a place in your itinerary is the Jaisalmer Fort, also called Sonar Qila. You should also make time to visit the ancient havelis that will give you an idea of how the original residents resided. However, if you are more interested in geology then make your way to the Wood Fossil Park or Aakal, which is located about 15 kilometres away from the city.

MUSINGS OF A SOLDIER: TIT-BITS
People often ask me about my life out of uniform. Honestly, I have had no problems. Not so far. Instead, I find it quite refreshing. No routine, no parades, no briefing, no impending operations. Having donned the uniform since the age of thirteen until I hung up my boots last year, could I ever visualize life out of uniform? Not really. But, as I said, the transition has been quite smooth–no hang-overs, no regrets. People have been very positive in their interactions. Government departments have been responsive whenever I have approached for assistance.The genuine respect for the uniform is quite evident and it makes my heart swell with pride. Arunachal, to that extent, is the most nationalistic state in the country, I daresay. It has been kind of a revelation for me to experience the freedom of being a common man in an environment of positivity!
