The Ney York-based TIME Magazine, famous for its fortnightly news and web publications has released a list of the World’s Greatest Places 2022. And two places in India have booked spots on the list!
The magazine, well-known for being one of the most educative and factual representations of happening around the world, invited nominations of places, through their network of correspondents around the globe, “with an eye towards those offering new and exciting experiences.”
And this year’s list has Kerala and Ahmedabad on the list.
Ahmedabad

Major attractions in the city include a 20-acre Nature Park, that has an Oxygen Park, a Butterfly Garden, spaces for Chess and Yoga, an open gym, a children’s play area, a mist bamboo tunnel, and jogging and walking tracks.
Along with this, the interactive Robotics Gallery, Science City’s new aquarium, the Gandhi Ashram, and the nine-day Navratri festival continue to attract visitors from India and out of the country.
