India, April 15 -- Himalayan spring is synonymous with silken-red rhododendrons, staging a scenery against the mountains and weaving a floral carpet. Beyond its optical brilliance, the valuable plant possesses medicinal properties and a distinctive flavour that can be enjoyed in the form of tea, syrups, jams, compotes, vinegar, and even locally-produced wines. If you ask us, the best way to converse with these scarlet-hued blooms is to embark on a rhododendron trek at one of these breathtaking destinations. The delightful shadow of these flowers will follow with every turn on the trail, promising a journey of picture-perfect frames until you reach the summit.
