5 best camping destinations in India and when to visit them
If you are someone who loves adventure and a good challenge, you must go on a camping trip at least once in your life. Here are some of the best camping destinations in India with the best time to visit them, what budget to keep and what you can do at these places: Rishikesh, Uttarakhand Rishikesh has earned a reputation as a camper's haven in both India and across the world. Here, you can wake up with a view of the Ganga, practice sunrise yoga, and try out adventure sports like white-water rafting and zip-lining. At night, you can witness aarti and bonfires on the banks of Ganga. The best time to visit Rishikesh for a camping trip is between March to November when the weather is pleasant and river sports are in full swing. For individuals and groups, budget camps with dormitory tents with basic amenities begin at a very affordable INR 1000 per person, while "glamping" alternatives with air beds, barbecue suppers and private decks can go up to INR 5000 or more. Meals and some adventure activities are usually included in the price by most camps. If you want to go trekking while you are here, it is best to carry some light woollens, quick-dry clothing, comfortable walking shoes, and insect spray. Remember that Rishikesh is a plastic-free city, so carry reusable bottles and bags with you. Jaisalmer, Rajasthan The best time to visit Jaisalmer for a camping adventure is from November to March when the day sun is warm and evenings are clear and starry. Camping options range from simple Swiss tents at INR 2000 a night to luxury camps with bathrooms, local cuisine, and even private cultural shows that cost as much as INR 8000. Here, you can experience sunset camel safaris, folk dances, and Rajasthani thalis. But when you head out for camping in Jaisalmer, pack plenty of water, sunscreen, and scarves or hats for sun protection during the day. It is also a good idea to keep gadgets well covered and protected from the sand. Spiti Valley, Himachal Pradesh Spiti Valley is one of the most popular camping destinations in India for rightful reasons. It has the most stunning virews of the Humalaya. The best time to camp here is during the months of May, July, September and October when the roads are accessible and weather conditions are secure. It is important that you acclimate to the high altitude of Spiti Valley. Most travellers plan an overnight stay in Kaza or Tabo before attempting high-altitude treks. You can camp near the famous lakes and monasteries of Spiti Valley starting at INR 2500 a night. Some camps also offer local cuisine and minimal cold-climate gear. Here, you can share butter tea with fellow campers, do temple tours of ancient Gompas, or day walks to hidden villages with locals. Make sure you pack layered camping gear, sunglasses, sunscreen, a torch, and a first aid kit. Petrol pumps, ATMs and phone networks are difficult to find here, so make sure you are properly prepared beforehand. Solang Valley and Manali, Himachal Pradesh Solang Valley and Manali in Himachal Pradesh are must-visit camping spots in India. If you are someone who loves adventure, you can try paragliding, zorbing, or guided treks here. The best time to visit this region is between October and June. You can find tents ranging from INR 1800 a night for basic setups to INR 4000 for packages that include meals and mountain guides. Family-friendly camps often have bonfires, local music nights, and nature walks. It is a good idea to inquire about activity packages and book your tickets early for the best rates outside of long weekends and holidays. Since the weather can be unpredictable, you might want to bring both sunscreen and rain gear. Coorg, Karnataka Coorg's lush green hills and coffee plantations offer a unique spot for camping. The best time to visit is from October to March, when the weather is cool but not too cold to set up camps. Campsites are usually set along the coffee plantations and provide unique experiences like guided tours of the plantations, fishing, wildlife spotting, and treks to waterfalls. Budget camps can start from INR 1200-1800 a night, while more luxurious "glamping" yurts or Swiss cottage tents might cost up to INR 5000. It is best to pack quick-drying clothes, water shoes, and a rain jacket even in the winter at Coorg. For a truly local dinner experience, don't miss trying a Pandi Curry pork meal, or enjoy fresh coffee from the estate as the sun rises. So, now that you know the best places to head to for a camping trip to India, you can have a journey full of thrill, delicious food and memories that you will never forget.

Inside Priyanka Chopra's Journey Through Jaipur, One Of World's Most Renowned Gem Capitals, With Bulgari
Priyanka Chopra is creating quite a buzz amidst the internet goers yet again. This time around, the Heads of State actress who is also the Bulgari Global Brand Ambassador explores the ins and outs of Jaipur, Rajasthan with Lucia Silvestri, Bulgari Jewellery Creative and Gems buying Director. Together they explore how Silvestri hand selects the colourful gems that will make their way into Bulgari's next collection. But that wasn't all they promenaded through the lanes of the iconic Johari Bazaar (which literally translates to jeweller's market) full of lanes of Bandhani dupattas, mojaris, gemstones, spices, the freshness of mogra flowers, gemstones adorned traditional kundan necklaces, orange skies full of birds in flight which are the ultimate vision of hope. View this post on Instagram A post shared by BVLGARI Official (@bvlgari) Priyanka makes her way through the diwan-e-khas at the City Palace in Jaipur which is home to the current maharaja of Jaipur, Sawai Padmanabh Singh. The iconic venue was constructed for private audiences with the maharaja at the time which was a sight to behold with its terracotta painted walls (which are a tint of pink) and laden with hand painted floral décor across its walls and jharokhas alike. It is said that the city of Jaipur was painted pink in the year 1876 when India was still colonised by the British and even now the new houses have to painted pink so that the city stays cohesive and proves to be the architectural gem that it is. Jaipur, the pink city is one of the gemstone capitals of the world, and colour is spread everywhere across the bustling markets to the local neighbourhoods, the gorgeous traditional Rajasthani clothes and mojaris worn by the locals, to the tie and dye dupattas and sarees laden with gilded zari details available across the city's bazaars. But nothing could be more grand than the royal heritage of the city and the gemstones that bring out the myriad hues of the land of the sand dunes, camels and beyond. It is safe to say that Priyanka Chopra opens doors into rediscovering the sheer gem that Jaipur is in all its grandiosity. Priyanka Chopra's Jaipur escapade is a celebration of royalty, gemstone and a kaleidoscope of colours.
