2. Enjoy Kolkata
Although Kolkata is a must-visit city for any travel aficionado, visiting the city during summer months can be taxing as it gets very hot and humid. Therefore, winter months, especially in December, during Christmas Eve, is the perfect time to explore the city of joy as the weather becomes pleasant.
Plus, the city enjoys a joyous ambience during Christmas Eve as the streets and shops are adorned with festive decorations. A visit to the churches in the city during Christmas is a must. You can make the most out of your visit by exploring some of the popular attractions in the city, including Indian Museum, Victoria Memorial, Maidan, Science City, and Prinsep Ghat.
3. Puducherry (Pondicherry)
If you are one of those who prefer to celebrate low-key but charming Christmas, you should visit Puducherry. The former French colony is home to many churches which you can visit during Christmas Eve.
Make sure to visit Promenade Beach, Rock Beach, French War Memorial, Botanical Garden, and Aayi Mandapam when in Puducherry.
