Well, technically Himalayas are quite far from Delhi and will have you take on an over-night journey at least to reach. If it's your first time travelling to the mountains, why dont you explore Manali?
Parvathi Valley is one of the most picturesque area not only in Himachal but around India ! Kullu, Manali , Dharamshala, Shimla etc are all now tourist spots and offer very less quite space . If you wish to seek seclusion , try moving a bit higher , such as if you happen to go towards kullu manali side, try to go to Tosh , a small village ahead Kasol , with limited accessibility and less mobile coverage, Tosh is a place to get lost into for a few days if you need some peaceful time . It has couple of cafes which offers good food, you can go hiking to waterfall region , they have tent stays too at waterfall, or you can stay at a lodge in Tosh village itself.
Hi Nikhil , I just happened to post about Triund and Lahesh cave trek ! Do check it out . Also to answer your question, it's true July- September is heavy monsoon time in the hills. I wouldn't say that you shouldn't go, you must definitely go if you plan to . Just make sure you go with your preparation . Raincoat , water proof bagpack , water proof shoes , a torch , mosquito replant spray ( if you plan to stay at night in triund) , extra clothing, warm clothing ( it will get pretty cold and windy at night ) , zip lock pouches for wet clothes ! Triund is a beauty which you must explore if you haven't yet . Don't let the rains stop you . Just be well geared and you will get to witness fresh mesmerising beauty of the dhauladhar range in it's most lush time ! Cheers ! Happy travel .
Travelling to the mountains during the monsoons is anyway risky. I suggest you skip it. It gets quite slushy in the rains and with summer holidays going on, the place would be super duper crowded.
Hi Anand
you can plan for Agumbe in Shimoga(western ghats). It's called as the cheerapunji of Karnataka and the hot spot of King Cobras. you can look out for my recent post "The Lush green Agumbe" in my profile.
It would be helpful for travellers if you share the travel details:
1.Route

Hey Arjun. Dubai is very hot and humid in August. These extreme conditions will limit your outdoor activities and some cafe? terraces, restaurants and attractions will be closed as well. If you are happy to stay indoors, at waterparks or by the pool, then go ahead with your plan. Otherwise, skip Dubai in August.
It will be summer by the time you come, with the sun glistening down, it would be difficult for you to venture outdoors and you would end holed up inside your room. The best time to visit Dubai would be during Jan - Feb with DSF offers and the cool weather you would enjoy your stay in Dubai. Here are few places to visit in Dubai
Dubai Miracle Garden
Global Village
Dubai Frames
Burj Khalifa
Gold Souk
Mall of Emirates
Dubai Mall etc...
