As soon as the monsoon season arrives, the mind starts dancing with joy and happiness comes on the faces of children and adults. India is a country where the rainy season is very pleasant, due to which many people want to leave their homes and enjoy this pleasant weather by visiting a good tourist place. But at the same time, there are many places in the rainy season where going is not free from danger. Many times it becomes difficult to go from one place to another due to problems like land sliding, water logging on roads, etc. Today in this episode we are going to tell you about those places where there is excessive rain during monsoon and going here can prove to be very dangerous for you. Let's know about these places...
Himachal Pradesh
Most people like to go to Himachal Pradesh for a walk. This is because many famous hill stations are located here. There is a crowd of people here even in summer. It has been observed that most tourists come from Delhi. Many facilities are also available from Delhi to go to Himachal Pradesh. However, avoid going to Himachal during monsoon season. Let us tell you that Himachal is a hilly area where there is a danger of big stones or rocks falling when it rains. In such a situation, the road can be closed or there can be a situation like danger to life. Therefore, if you want to go to Himachal, then plan to go there before or after the monsoon.
Mumbai
The charm of the metropolis of Mumbai disappears completely during the rainy season. The difficulties of the people living here increase in the rainy season. Due to continuous rain, the local train services, which are called the lifeline of Mumbai, also stop. You will get to see waterlogging in houses or waterlogging on the roads every day during the rainy season. When it rains continuously, people here get locked in their homes. However, there are many such hill stations in Maharashtra, like Bhandardara, Amboli, Mahabaleshwar etc. If you want to visit these places, then plan before or after the rain.
Uttarakhand
To escape the heat, most people run towards the mountains and when it is monsoon season, everyone is eager to go to the hill station. When it comes to mountains, first of all, we will talk about a beautiful place like Uttarakhand. You can complete the journey from Delhi to Uttarakhand in just a few hours. However, there are many buses, trains, and cabs available too, which take you from Delhi to Uttarakhand. You just have to keep in mind that during the monsoon season, it rains continuously in many places of Uttarakhand, due to which the roads become slippery. Driving or roaming in such places in this season is not free from danger.
Sikkim
Sikkim is a very beautiful place for those who are fond of traveling. The natural beauty and green environment of Sikkim attracts a large number of tourists. Sikkim is as beautiful throughout the year but the condition of Sikkim becomes bad during the rainy season. The roads here become so bad in the rain that it is not worth visiting and the green mountains here also get covered with clouds in this season. If you are planning to visit Sikkim during the monsoon season, then cancel your trip.
Kerala
Kerala looks even more beautiful during the rainy season. Due to its unique culture and beautiful nature, people come here to visit from far and wide. However, the view here becomes very terrible during the rainy season. Flood-like situation arises in many places in Kerala, not only this, but many times it rains continuously for three to four days. Therefore, if you are planning to visit Kerala, then you can come anytime between September and March.
Kalimpong
Kalingpong, the hill station of West Bengal, is a very beautiful place. The city is bustling with domestic and foreign tourists throughout the year, but visiting here during the rainy season can prove to be quite dangerous. Due to landslides on the hilly roads, you may be stranded for hours or there is also a possibility of becoming a victim of an accident. Therefore, one should not plan to visit Kalimpong in July-August.
Chennai
Traveling to Chennai during the monsoon season is a bit difficult. During this time the city gets flooded. If you visit this place during the monsoon, you will not be able to go out. You should avoid visiting here from July to September. You can think of visiting here in November to February.
Cherrapunji
If you want to visit during the monsoon, then Cherrapunji is already one of the wettest places on earth. You may wonder how 'monsoon season' will make any difference to a place like Cherrapunji, which anyway remains rainy throughout the year! But this is due to the frequency and intensity of rainfall which increases during monsoons, making it a poor choice for your trip. Not only this, the city faces severe water shortage and locals have to travel long distances in search of fresh water.
