Local Food, Markets, & Cultural StopsJoin us on our first day in Leh, Ladakh—exploring local culture, sipping butter tea, visiting the Hall of Fame, Magnetic Hill, the Leh Palace, and more. A personal travel story from Invisible Cities filled with slow moments and cultural gems.
Hello,
Welcome to the Invisible Cities!
We’re a couple who are exploring India, one hidden story at a time.
Not just the Insta-famous spots, we’re talking chai with old booksellers in Kolkata, secret art alleys in Kochi, forgotten havelis in Lucknow, and midnight biryani runs in Hyderabad.
We dig beneath the surface of Indian cities to find the places that locals love, the stories no one’s telling, and the magic tucked away in everyday moments.
This site is our travel journal: part guide, part storybook that is packed with offbeat finds, cultural curiosities, and real conversations from the road.
No clichés. No filters. Just travel. Unpolished and unforgettable.
