If you're looking for new adventure destinations and dream of Scandinavian landscapes like snow-capped mountains, frozen lakes, pine and deodar forests, valleys, and fresh mountain air, you don't need a passport. Just pack your bags and head to these three places in India. Believe me, these places will give you the feeling of a paradise like Norway.
