The Fortune Resort is a blend of traditional Kashmiri architecture with new-age conveniences. However, what will catch your attention is their authentic Peshawari cuisine that will spoil you for choices.
Gokarna, Karnataka: There is no better town than Gokarna to give you the perfect, slow break after a string of hectic wedding weeks.
