The fact that the past year has been a rough time for the world cannot be overstated, but with some form of normalcy returning to our lives, it is paramount that we try to enjoy the things we have missed the most. The lockdowns and the pandemic scare have taught us to appreciate the things we take for granted. Something like heading out-of-town for a quick trip used to be a no-brainer for most of us, but the times have changed and the new normal has made a few lasting changes in our lives. Trips need meticulous planning these days, gone are the random drives to satiate the cravings for a hot cup of tea in a city 200km away. Or are they?
As we glanced at our all-new fifth-generation Honda City looking supreme in its Lunar Silver Metallic shade, it called upon us to revisit the lost charm of just heading out. It was a cold morning with a thick blanket of fog covering the surroundings and we had to beat the blues. Thus, in a matter of minutes, we had gone through the list of places we wished to visit during the lockdowns and have decided on a place. Another hour or so later the three of us were on our way to Panchkula, a 240km drive from Delhi. Our destination was Fort Ramgarh, a heritage palace hotel with a rich 360-year long history.
