| India has been a favourite destination since ancient times for travellers
from every corner of the world. Some came to see one of the oldest civilization, others to
expand their trade and yet others to invade and conquer large chunks of the northern
plains. Each one of them left an indelible mark on this exotic land with mystic religious
beliefs, diverse cultures, snow covered challenging peaks of the Himalayas, harvest rich
gangetic plains, hundreds of kilometers of coastline shadowed with beautiful coconut
groves and the sand dunes of the Thar desert.

Braving the cold desert in Leh-Ladakh |
With the passage of time modernisation has taken its toll, but the rich heritage survives--in the thick foliage of jungles where the tigers roar, the temples of Khajuraho with sensual symbols carved out in pieces of stone, the old palaces and forts of Rajasthan, the chanting of hymns in the Buddhist monasteries, the rich system of ancient Indian medicine- the ayurveda being practised in tiny towns. |

A folk musician in Rajasthan |
Dressed in their traditional headgear-the colourfully printed turbans, tall and dark tanned men of Rajasthan look after their camels as the womenfolk in their myriad colored dresses- the lehngas and cholis, tend to their daily chores. Silver bands and trinkets adorn their arms and ankles. Not far away in the sub-himalayan region of Himachal Pradesh, the traditions are different, the dresses are different and climate is cold-at times dipping below freezing points. The famous apple orchard belt of this region is known for its Dussehra festival before the onset of the snowy winter. | ![]() Lord Budha |

| Lot has been said and written about India, its superstitious beliefs, the
holy cows, the snake charmers, the saffron clad gurus and elephants walking down the streets. Is it all true ?
