Now that monsoon clouds have reached the northern parts of the country and have covered all of India, it is a good time to recap all monsoon related posts on India Travel Blog. I was tempted to compile a list of places to visit, but realized after going through the archives that (a) a compilation has been done before and (b) there is more about monsoons on this blog than just destinations.
