Thinking of traveling for Christmas and New Year? Stay away from these places otherwise your trip will become stressful instead of fun.

If you are dreaming of making your Christmas and New Year holidays memorable, be careful. Some places may not give you comfort but instead crowds, traffic jams, exorbitant prices and chaos. The situation can become so bad that instead of enjoying the festivals, the holidays become a burden. So, let us know which places you should avoid visiting in this New Year?

Avoid visiting these places during Christmas and New Year:
Shimla and Manali: Most of the people go to Shimla and Manali to celebrate New Year, but you should avoid visiting these two hill stations during this time. There is a huge rush of people wanting to see the snow, which can lead to long traffic jams, sometimes lasting more than 10-12 hours. Also, hotel bookings usually get full well in advance. Even if you find a hotel, the prices will be very high.

Nainital and Mussoorie: If you are planning to go to Nainital and Mussoorie to celebrate New Year, then cancel your plan. These hill stations are quite small, which makes the crowd difficult to handle. Tourists often get stuck in traffic jams for hours, which can spoil your family trip.

Jaipur and Udaipur: If you are planning to visit Jaipur and Udaipur in Rajasthan for Christmas and New Year celebrations, then avoid going there for now. Hotels and resorts are very expensive at this time. Also, popular places have long lines, which can spoil your mood.

Big malls and party hubs: If you live in metro cities like Delhi or Mumbai, avoid going to big malls and party hubs. You may have to wait a long time to get in, and there’s also the risk of security issues and pickpockets, which could ruin your New Year’s Eve.
