How about trying Kerala?...its a wonderful place, the place is known for having lush greenery everywhere. I am not sure about the pricing you may have to check some travel site...

Answer 3

It is a vast country with all kind of terrain and climate, Ice to desert, rainfall to drought Basic and cheap I prescribe Kerala it is not centrally located but you can connect to all places by rail and air. In Kochi the port city of kerala you can get a 2 star room in the cost of 10 us dollar per day. Rail travel is one of the cheapest in the world if you advance reserve your ticket. say kochi to Delhi(northest city) will be less than $10 per person 2nd class. (feel free to email for more details).
