It's a fact most travellers will agree that India can be a challenge to even the most casual of travellers, and there is no substitute for planning your trip well in advance.
India is diverse with numerous languages, religions and traditions. Be aware of the Indian lifestyle before you land in. People speak thousands of languages, wear various and vibrant costumes, eat varieties of dishes, something you may not find at any other place in the world. Each region (state) of India is divided, on the basis of culture and language. Every part of India demonstrates a different language and tradition. But Hindi is one language, which is spoken broadly. English is mostly spoken by the elite and educated people.
India is rapidly gaining ground in the international scenario as a popular destination for foreign travellers, international students, and even for some others who opt to migrate to this mystical land, which has caught much of their fancy and amazement. The country, which had been reeling under the onslaught of a British colonial rule, managed to fight all odds and create a niche for itself in less than 60 years since its independence. It has metamorphosed into one of the most sought after destinations for travel, much due to the presence of several renowned world heritage sites, and an inherent spiritualistic force, which pulls enthusiastic travellers towards it. But, in spite of being a major revenue puller for the Indian economy, tourism is not the only contender, as an international standardization of Indian education has made its presence known amongst other stalwarts.
India provides a unique picture of herself in the global map. Since long, travellers of all sorts have made their way to the country to catch a glimpse of some of the world's most famous historic sites and monuments that are reminiscent of the country's rich cultural heritage. Taj Mahal in Agra is one such landmark, which has been inducted into the list of the Seven Wonders of the World, owing to its unique architectural beauty and historic relevance. Moreover, the spiritual fervour that the country evokes is another reason for which foreigners come to the country, and also inculcate traces of it into their lives.
A rich experience of exploring the bounty of this enchanting land awaits the eager traveller on its threshold.
