Lonely Planet India - November 2017

If you still haven't planned a holiday for this winter, we've got your back. Our November issue has a great collection of LAST-MINUTE WINTER GETAWAYS.

South-east Asia has a bevy of gorgeous destinations on offer, like TAIWAN, with its futuristic cities and glorious beaches. We've got a well-curated itinerary across the island nation. Or, you could imbibe holiday cheer (with a generous side of mulled wine) at one of EUROPE'S LESSER-KNOWN CHRISTMAS MARKETS. There's also a great list of EASY GETAWAYS FROM DELHI that will make you want to pack your bags right away. If you'd rather stay indoors but still have a story to tell, check out the list of UNUSUAL PLACES TO STAY AT – there are Martian domes in Jordan, a lighthouse in Namibia, glass boxes in Spain… Bonus: Explore NEW YORK CITY through the movies!

If you'd rather just spend the weekend away from home, we've got a number of options. You could go bird-crazy in the forests of NAMERI NATIONAL PARK, ASSAM. Or, explore FORT KOCHI, KERALA, to find your perfect hideout. You could also get handsy in GOA as you become a baker – or a potter – for a day. Alternatively, escape to hills made lush by the monsoon in the quiet Himalayan hamlet of SARNA, UTTARAKHAND. And unwind in the lap of luxury amid the wild cocoon of PENCH NATIONAL PARK, MADHYA PRADESH.

PLUS: We've got easy-to-tear-fold-and-carry Mini Guides – head to KYOTO, JAPAN in the autumn to explore temple gardens, take part in traditional ceremonies and sample Buddhist cuisine, or dig into some of DHARAMSALA's delicious culinary options.
