India

India is a mindboggling wealth of sights, smells and sounds. With almost two thirds of the Himalayas in India, 6000 kilometres of coastlines, tropical forests, cold and hot deserts it is a geographers dream. With 150 languages and 2000 dialects and the birthplace of 4 major religions and 1.2 billion people everything is in a scale quite incomparable and like an anthropological museum. As Mark Twain american author spoke eloquently about India: "India is the cradle of the human race, the birthplace of human speech, the mother of history, the grandmother of legend, and the great grandmother of tradition. Our most valuable and most instructive materials in the history of man are treasured up in India only."

The Rough guide had this to say

Nowhere on Earth does humanity present itself in such a dizzying, creative burst of cultures and religions, races and tongues. Enriched by successive waves of migration and marauders from distant lands, every one of them left an indelible imprint which was absorbed into the Indian way of life.

India is today not only known as the cradle of an ancient civilisation but a young democracy presently emerging as a vibrant democracy with a booming economy. Come and discover this magic..............
