Where to head to for a long weekend?

After working hard for two whole months which had absolutely no respite and no holidays, the month of August is here with a slew of holidays. With Id on 9^th, Independence Day on 15^th and Rakhabandhan on 20^th, it provides an excellent chance to take a break and smell the roses. While Id can only be turned into a three day weekend, clubbing together Independence Day and Rakshabandhan with a couple of paid leaves turns into a week long vacation with many options at our disposal. GDA brings you a slew of options to pick and head for a memorable weekend.
