Weekend getaways have really picked up in all parts of India. Everyone needs a break now and then, and to spend your weekend in a small hill station which is only a few hundred kilometres is what you really want. Everyone can’t afford a helicopter ride to any state of their choice, so car or bus is the natural mode of travel for these weekend trips.
Nearby Mumbai (in the state of MAH) there are small hill stations like Lonavala, Khandala and Matheran which are very scenic. They are far from the main town so you can carry your Volcano Vaporizer because you are definitely not going to find one there. Near Nagpur there are places like Tadoba and Nagzira which are worth seeing.
For people living/working in Kolkatta there are places like Darjeeling, Jaldpara, Kalimpong and a national park in Sunderbans.
Beaches like the Goa beach is world famous. People visit here from all parts of the world. There is a lot of travel to this part of the country when people have slightly longer weekends like about 3-4 days.
