If you are travelling during the summer months, the Northern part of India that borders the the mountains of Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, North Uttar Pradesh is pleasant. The South also has its hill stations, and most certainly the famous hill resorts of the South like Kodai Kanal, Ootacamund and Croog, beside Darjeeling, Sikkim are recommended in summer.
