Across the laid-back vibes of sugarcane- laden fields, mountainous backdrops and breezy beaches, Bandana Jain explores a tropical island, which is far more than the quintessential honeymooner’s destination. It’s surely for reasons like these that some travelers don’t mind flying as much as thirty- hours to enjoy this paradise isle called Mauritius! Through my aircraft window, I could see a thin film of clouds giving way to the beauty of the greenery beneath. Voila, such a hearty welcome by Mother Nature! Our joys were multiplied when on ground zero, we were able to enjoy the surreal views through the glass façade of the airport, even as we worked our way through the immigration checks. As we entered the gates of our Hotel Riu Creole, there were coconut trees everywhere. A huge banyan tree majestically perched in the centre of the aesthetically- designed lobby and we could already feel the tropical island excitement sinking in. Our hotel room was a spacious one with the

Armenia, Georgia’s relatively quiet neighbor is making its presence felt through layers of intriguing history and stunning landscapes. Bandana Jain undertook a power-packed, flavorful tour into this remarkable Caucasian hotspot that mesmerizes with a compelling blend of European and Asian heritage. Armenia is a country small in size, yet big in character. It is an offbeat destination that is finally making its presence felt as a wondrous holiday destination. Bound by Turkey, Iran, Georgia and Azerbaijan, its rich culture, charming monasteries and medieval age landmarks beckon increased number of tourists. An incredibly old country with its 2800 year- old history (28 years older than Rome!) the country is drenched in history. It is packed with so many unique historical and cultural attractions, that it is often dubbed as ‘museum under the open sky’. Dating back to the 8th century, Yerevan, the delightful Armenian capital is one of the oldest continuously inhabited citi

Barely 100 km from Delhi, this early 19th century palace "non- hotel" is a classic combo of regality and modern art. When it comes to heritage revival, nobody does it better than Aman Nath. He is like a magician who seems to turn ruins into elegant heritage properties with the magical touch of his intuition, imagination and practiced skills. The historian cum renaissance person who writes, designs, lectures and promotes Neemrana, started his saga of resurrection with the eminent Neemrana Fort-Palace which has been drawing crowds ever since 1971. His uncanny talent to restore old properties into viable economic properties continues and today he carries the credit of reviving and running as many as 17 stunning heritage hotels in the Neemrana portfolio. Aman Nath’s pet project, the Neemrana group of hotels is a gorgeous testament to the fact that history, when restored and resurrected, can emerge far more beautiful than probably, the original product.
