5 serene Mini-moon/Miniature Honeymoon locations

Author: Mary Ann

Day Dreaming of a blissful honeymoon start as soon as your hubby-to-be pops the question, but in today’s fast-paced world not all newlyweds have time for a two-week excursion to serene honeymoon places like the Alps or a tropical island. Enter the mini-moon: a miniature honeymoon vacation in which couples schedule a shortened honeymoon of several days just after the wedding while saving their lengthy vacation for a later date.

The mini-moon is a major matrimonial trend. Taking the time to destress and unwind after the wedding planning mayhem, allows couples to enjoy their union without the pressures of everyday life. While a longer honeymoon immediately after the wedding is preferable to a short one, a mini-moon definitely trumps no vacation at all. In order to ensure an enjoyable mini-moon, select a location that requires little travel; nothing is more anxiety-inducing than a short vacation made even more brief by days of travel. Furthermore, pick a single location you feel you can master over a limited time span.

Here is a list of 5 peaceful honeymoon places to unwind with your significant other.

1. Alappuzha, Kerala – Alappuzha lies just over 60 kilometres from Kochi, known for its beautiful beaches and backwaters. Alappuzha or Alleppey (as it is also known) can be accessed from the railway station (4 km from the city centre) or bus.

2. Kasol, Himachal Pradesh – Resting on the banks of the river Parvati, Kasol is a tiny town, bursting with life, surrounded by massive and breath-taking peaks of the snow clad Himalayas. It caters to a variety of tourists, dominated by Israelis and hippies attracted by its peaceful setting and easy availability of wild charas. Home to some crazy music festivals
