Once the wedding has gone off as smoothly and successfully as you could ever hope for, it is time for the cherry on the cake – the honeymoon. If you have spent months planning the wedding, you have surely spent a little time planning the honeymoon – the location, applying for leave from work beforehand, and visa complications if you are travelling abroad. The visa process can be lengthy and a little bit of a kill joy for some. However, not all foreign destinations have to end up being a source of visa related worries. Here are a few wonderful foreign honeymoon destinations that do not require a visa, leaving you to bask in the first romance of marriage.
1. Dancing in Cambodia

Submerge yourself in some history and religion on your honeymoon by visiting the famous ruins of the Angkor Wat temple in Cambodia. Known as the largest religious monument in the world, it was originally built as a Hindu temple but was later transformed into a Buddhist shrine. Apart from this, Cambodia is a favourite honeymoon destination worldwide for the Tonle Sap Lake, pretty pagodas and dramatic dance performances.
2. Happiness in Bhutan

If peace and balance are what you desire post-wedding, Bhutan is where you should head.
