These Are 2016’s Most Instagrammed Places In India!

As the year is coming to a close, everyone wants to know what were the things that made the news this year. While 2016 was definitely a roller coaster ride, it will go down as a year we won’t forget in a hurry. Facebook released their annual report of the top topics, videos, hash tags, etc that broke the internet and the results are quite amusing. Some were highly expected, like the US presidential elections being the hottest topic but some where clear cut surprises. I mean, #love was the most used one on Instagram. Where and how did that happen?!

Talking about Instagram, the most popular place on the social media platform was Disneyland, and just like that, the world seems a happier place now. Closer home, India’s top 10 Instagrammed places showed which parts of the country are social media magnets. Now, on any given day we would think that the Taj Mahal is the hero of Instagram in India. But we were so wrong. Turns out (cue, drum roll) Mumbai’s Marine Drive has taken the first place for being the top Instagrammed location in India. Yes, it is pretty, especially after the sun sets. Yes, it has thousands of people jogging or taking their dogs out for a walk. But obviously this miracle happened because of the couples that have made the place their haven. Second to that comes the Taj Mahal, with travellers from all over the world filling their Insta feeds with the marbled monument.

Scroll down to check out which were the top 10 hottest locations in India on Instagram!
