The two keywords that define a Gemini are ‘curious’ and ‘impulsive’. No wonder, their travel decisions can be quite sudden. Geminis tend to get bored easily and thus constantly love to explore new things and new places. Also, since versatility appeals to this air sign, Geminis enjoy almost all kinds of trips, be it to the mountains of Sikkim or to the beaches of Gokarna or to the marvellous forts of Jaipur. In the destinations, they seek for an unique and unmatched beauty, be it scenic excellence or architectural excellence. As long as they can find that, they are appeased. Also, the places that have both scenic beauty and history can be a treat to them. Here are 6 places in India you must explore if you happen to be a Gemini:
1. Jaipur
You’ll rarely find a Gemini who doesn’t adore Jaipur. The magnificent historic forts, the palaces, the vibrant culture, the traditional shopping centres and the mouth-watering local foods here will absolutely feed the soul of a Gemini. Also, only a few hours drive away from Jaipur, there are captivating expanses of lush green mountains at places like Pushkar and Bhangar. Also, this hidden campsite in the Pushkar hills is like a piece of a paradise ( a must-visit for a Gemini).
2. Rameswaram
A trip to Rameswaram can be a trip of a lifetime for a Gemini. And why not? The island in the south-eastern tip of India has so many experiences to offer, from a ride through India’s oldest and most dangerous sea bridge to a stroll through the ruins of the haunted nearby town, Dhanushkodi. Rameswaram is home to gorgeous beaches. India’s first sea bridge, Pamban bridge passes over the crystal blue waters and connects mainland India’s Mandapam town to the Pamban Island. The ride offers soul-captivating views of the sea and the island. What makes it magnificent is not just its age but the fact that it was the longest sea bridge in India until the opening of the Bandra-Worli Sea Link. It is also a cantaloupe bridge. Dhanushkodi, which is known to be a haunted town, sits at the southernmost tip of Rameswaram where the Bay of Bengal and the Indian Ocean meet.
3. Sikkim
Sikkim in the lap of the Himalayas is again a destination that can provide a plethora of experiences. It has some of the highest glacial lakes in India like the Tsomgo Lake and the Gurudongmar Lake. Sikkim is also home to some roaring waterfalls like the Kanchenjunga Falls and the Naga Falls. The state offers arresting views of the third highest mountain in the world, the Kanchenjunga. There are many hill-ringed monasteries too out here.
