India

Introduction
The diversity and cultural strength of India cannot fail to impress; bustling cities contrast with the natural grandeur of the Himalayan foothills, the sweeping dunes of the Rajasthan desert and dense jungle.

India’s so-called Golden Triangle provides the favourite circuit for foreign visitors. It takes in Delhi, Agra with its world-renowned monuments, and the ‘pink city’ of Jaipur with its palaces and bustling markets.

India cannot be easily described or summed up, it is a beautiful mix of people and places, a patchwork quilt of a thousand polarised traditions and cultures brought together into one colourful expression. From the high Himalaya to the backwaters of Kerala, India offers spectacular natural beauty in every shape and form. Its long history comes alive with the buildings that remain, from colonial or Mughal to the forts and palaces of Rajasthan. Every corner brings a new experience, a snapshot into the realisation that India is waiting to be explored and experienced time and time again.
