About India

India's first major civilization flourished along the Indus River valley nearly five thousand years ago. In India, wherever you go the network of amazing destinations follow you in order to give you the ultimate travel experience of “Incredible India”. A turn of your eye in India brings you face to face with the diversity of a different kind. Every place here bears no resemblance with the other and is an entity in itself offering rich heritage and culture.

As India is a land of different languages and states, its culture varies from state to state. Indian culture is so diverse that even a very few Indians are aware of all the customs, traditions and rituals of the nearby regions. However, it has become very difficult to maintain the old customs in the recent time with people settling in big cities reason being the growth of India at a very rapid pace.

India has made huge progress since independence and has developed its industry and agriculture, and has maintained a system of government which makes it the largest democracy in the world.

India is set apart from the rest of Asia by the Himalayas, the highest, youngest and still evolving chain of mountains on the planet. The Indian subcontinent as it should be rightly called, touches three large water bodies and is immediately recognizable on any world map.

Home of the sacred River Ganges, India holds virtually every kind of landscape imaginable. A rich abundance of mountain ranges and national parks provide ample opportunity for eco-tourism and trekking, and its sheer size promises something and everything for everyone.

North India which is the country's largest region begins with Jammu and Kashmir having terrains varying from arid mountains in the far north to the lake country and forests. Moving south along the Indus River, the North becomes flatter and more hospitable, widening into the fertile plains of Punjab to the west and the Himalayan foothills of Uttar Pradesh and the Ganges river valley to the East. Situated between these two states is the capital city, Delhi.

Western India includes the states of Gujarat, Maharashtra, Goa, and part of the massive central state of Madhya Pradesh. The Western region extends from the Gujarat peninsula down to Goa, the west coast is embodied with some of India's best beaches. The typical lush rainforests cover the coastal areas.

East India begins with the states of Madhya Pradesh, Bihar, Orissa, which comprise the westernmost part of the region. The entirely distinct area of eastern triangle also falls in East India. Extending beyond Bangladesh and Culminating in the Naga Hills along the Burmese border, the Eastern Triangle is the last gulp of land from India

Southern India  India reaches its peninsular tip. It begins with the Deccan in the north and ends with Cape Comorin. The states of Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, and Kerala constitute South India and offer a favourite leisure destination to the people all over the globe. The southeast coast, mirroring the west, also rests snugly beneath a mountain range--the Eastern Ghats.
