India

A land of diversities, culture, and timeless wonder.

India is a land of contrasts, a land of colors, where ancient traditions and modern innovations exist together in harmony. India stretches from the snow-capped mountains of the Himalayas in the north to the sun-drenched beaches of Goa and Kerala in the south. This vast landscape presents an experience different from any other. The land of the birthplace of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism, this country is proud of its grand palaces, centuries-old temples, bustling cities, and silent backwaters.

 

Lying between Nepal, Bhutan, China, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Myanmar, India is a haven for any traveler-from the Taj Mahal and its architectural beauty to the spiritual sanctity of Varanasi, from the grandiosity of Rajasthan to the excess energy of Mumbai and Delhi. Be it adventure in the Thar Desert, serenity in the monasteries of the Himalayas, or indulgence in India’s famous cuisine, this country is going to promise one hell of an unforgettable journey.
