Another gem from West Bengal, the Cooch Behar palace is an architectural beauty. Still maintaining its glossy red and white facade, the palace is such a lovely place to visit. The museums inside are quite interesting too. The gardens are beautiful and you can laze around, just chatting away with friends and family.
