In every summer vacation, my father and mother used to take us to water parks in Dehradun. We used to plan which water parks to visit during the summer holidays. Never went out of Dehradun but in those days it used to be our vacation.
Nowadays, parents plan trips with their children well in advance. The fun of summer vacation also comes when you go to such places in summer where the weather is cool.
Today in this article, we will tell you about such places in India which provide coolness in the scorching heat and where the weather remains pleasant even in June and July.
Kedarnath
Kedarnath has its importance in the journey of Char Dham. There was a time when it was difficult to reach here, but today it is easy to reach here. Lord Shiva resides at this place located in Uttarakhand. Not only this, one of the 12 Jyotirlingas in India is called Kedarnath.
You can visit this place with the kids. Choose a family package from the many tour packages online and explore this place. If we talk about the temperature here, then due to the rain, this place will still be cool. Even in June, the minimum temperature here remains 4 to 12 degrees.
Spiti Valley
Spiti is one of the best places to visit in summer. There are many places like Chandratal, Suraj Tal, Dhankar Monastery, and Kunzum Pass that you can explore. This place is covered with snow even in June, so the valley may be covered with a blanket of snow when you visit. The minimum temperature here is sometimes up to -2 degrees.
Sonamarg
If you have not seen Kashmir till now, then this summer, visit Kashmir with your children during the summer holidays. April to June is also a good time to visit Sonamarg and at this time the temperature there will be between 7 to 12 degrees. For the first time, children will also be very happy to ride a Shikara boat.
Apart from this, you can visit Sonamarg for Gondola Ride, Jeff Safari, Famous Tulips Garden, Museum and many more. Along with this, Kashmiri cuisine can be enjoyed and shopping for genuine Pashmina shawls can also be done.
Kalpa
If you think that there is only Shimla and Solang Valley to visit in Himachal, then you are wrong. This time come to Kalpa village of Kinnaur for a holiday. Book a family resort on the banks of river Sutlej here and enjoy your meal with a cool breeze. This place is known for its beautiful monasteries as well as temples. Show your kids the apple orchards here too. The minimum temperature of Kalpa remains up to 7 degrees these days.
Sela Pass
This time, if you want to leave Himachal and Uttarakhand and go somewhere else with your children, then you can visit North East. This place is 78 kilometres away from Tawang in Arunachal Pradesh. This destination is not yet explored much, so if you are looking for a place of peace apart from the crowd, then Arunachal Pradesh's Tawang City and Sela Pass are good options. Here you can go trail hiking and have a picnic near the beautiful lakes. The minimum temperature here in June is 8 degrees.
There are many places which remain quite cool even in June and July. Before going to these places, do take information about the temperature here and the nearby tourist places.
