Delhi, the national capital of India, is one of the most important metropolitan cities. Living in a busy city definitely has its perks, but one just cannot ignore the drawbacks. Scorching hot summers and biting cold winters, accompanied by pollution, are what the city’s weather looks like. Life in this busy city might not be a cakewalk to many. At such times, it becomes a necessity to break the monotony and embark on a short trip, away from the meddling crowd. That being said, the neighbourhood states around Delhi like Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan boast of some spectacular destinations, ideal for a short vacation. Here are four amazing tourist spots that are a must-visit if you want to escape the chaos of Delhi.
Tilyar Lake – Rohtak
For those seeking some peace and tranquillity, Rohtak’s Tilyar Lake welcomes you with its mesmerising natural vistas, serene woods, and cool breezes. Located at a distance of about 50 km from Delhi’s Peeragarhi, the Tilyar Lake is a haven for picnic lovers, encircled by forests and water shrubs. The place is home to a wide variety of birds, ideal for bird watchers.
