This stunningly beautiful national park in Uttarakhand breaks into a profusion of alpine flowers during the monsoon, usually between July and September. However, the blooms are weather dependent. Govindghat (connected to Dehra Dun and Rishikesh by road) is the point where you have to leave the car and start trekking to Ghangaria, from where a further trek will take you to the Valley of Flowers. Recently, a helicopter service has been introduced between Govindghat and Ghangaria. ?

Ziro, Arunachal Pradesh ?
