For nature lovers, another perfect destination is the Valley of Flowers National Park. As the name suggests, the valley, in the state of Uttarakhand, has a wide variety of flowers, including 300 alpine varieties, which make for a beautiful, brightly colored landscape against the background of snow capped mountains. Imagine how beautiful the entire view would be. This park is spread over 55 miles and the beauty of its landscape is enhanced even more during the monsoon season when all the trees become lush green and the flowers appear brighter than ever. If you are planning to visit this place, the best time would be between July and August when you can explore the beautiful Valley of Flowers in full bloom. This place is good for hiking too, but when you hike, make sure you carry food with you and pack clothes just in case it rains - which it often does.
