The wonders of India, a land full of mistery and magic

Travel shouldn’t always have to be typical “resting.” Sometimes, when you decide on distant destinations, they can also have an educational and “enlightening” mark. The visit to India gives you the opportunity to meet history in combination with cultural, spiritual and artistic experiences. This wonderful country, a land of contrasts, represents an attractive mix of Indian and Muslim culture, multicultural history and beautiful nature.

With many different India travel packages, everyone can find its cup of tea. From exotic beaches to diversity of the local culture and fascinating modern metropolises, this subcontinent has it all. If India is your next holiday destination, before you begin planning your trip, there are several things to keep in mind.

India Is One-of-a-Kind Destination

 

In India, you will have the one-of-a-kind chance to see something that you haven’t see before. Although this is the case in most of the world’s metropolises, it seems to be particularly pronounced in cities like Delhi or Mumbai.

The line between luxury and poverty is pretty thin. While, on the one hand, you can see poor beggars in every corner, on the streets, you’ll see the latest SUV model for every couple of seconds. You’ll sit in an exclusive restaurant, and enjoy one of the specialties of the world’s cuisine, while a dirty child will come to you to ask for a rupee.

Indian Railway

 

You probably heard about the Indian Railway, which is a kind of attraction. Although most of the trains remind of those from the period of colonialism, this type of transport is being rapidly modernized so you can start your Indian adventure with traveling by rail.

Cultural Variety

 

Depending on which part of India you want to visit, you can see the influences of different cultures and nations. The western coast of India, where you will find some of the world’s most beautiful beaches, was the Portuguese colony. Between palm trees, you can come across Catholic churches or buildings from the period of colonialism. Contrasts for this unique architecture are numerous nightclubs and beach bars, which offer unforgettable fun and pleasure.

If you opt for metropolises, the most famous sight is Taj Mahal, the eternal symbol of love; then, the Red Palace, monumental buildings from the period of bloom of India, as well as numerous mosques, temples, and museums.

For those who want to feel the true spirit of India, the markets are “a must” locations. Among the “mountains” of spices, sweets, exotic fruit, and street food, mildly pushy sellers will want to drag you to their stand. Prepare your nerves of steel; they won’t give up until you spend some money there.

When to Travel

 

Given that it is located in the subtropical zone, the climate in India is specific, and due to its surface, it is quite diverse. India basically has three seasons: winter, a really moisty mixture of spring/fall, and summer.

The period of “winter” lasts from November to February, with relatively warm days and chilly nights. This is the best time to visit this country and, at the same time, the peak of the tourist season. Monsoon season (“spring/fall”) and “summer” are characterized by hot days, often unbearable nights, and high humidity. Monsoons bring rains and storms, but one of the benefits of this period is cheaper arrangements.

 

There are some problems in this beautiful country that their authorities need to solve, and which tourists are afraid of. However, many people who visited India claim that this experience changed their lives, in a positive manner.

The inhabitants of this South Asian country have a unique life philosophy. The way Indians relate to tourists, and to any other nations, is something for which this land is recognizable. If you go to India ready for new experiences and adventures, it will probably be an unforgettable journey that will mark your life.
