INDIA - NORTH INDIA (RAJASTHAN, DELHI AND TAJ MAHAL)
From the cackle of its colour-charged cities to the luminous
splendor of its sun kissed desert, Rajasthan is romantic India wrapped in gaudy
royal robes. Here the fearsome Rajput warrior clans ruled with glit –edged
swords, plundered wealth and blood thick chivalrous codes. Delhi – Scratch
beyond the gritty surface and you will swiftly discover that India’s capital is
sprinkled with glittering gems: captivating ancient monuments, magnificent
museums, a vivacious performing arts scene and some of the subcontinent’s
yummiest places to eat.
Agra’s magnificent white marble Taj Mahal stands like a
bulbos beacon, drawing tourists like moths to a wondrous flame. Despite the
hype, it’s every bit as good as you have heard. Like a microcosm of Mother
India, there’s also abundant wildlife and warm people, glitz and camels,
soulful music, glittering saris, tottering turbans and a surprisingly rich
cuisine.
