Travel Report - India

Summary

For over two millennia, India has been at the centre of world history. From Buddhism to Bollywood, from mathematics to outsourcing, India is a land of stunning contrasts, many moods and diverse cultures. But what are the country's origins and how did it come to be what it is today?

India has one of the world's great cuisine and the country's luxury hotel restaurants have become social hubs and gastronomic destinations. But you also could find in the sleepy little town a long way from anywhere to see a century-long burst of creativity and profusion of historicity. You could be in the top table as like the Rajah, but you could also be the peasant in the radically different way to walk along with Hindu. You could take the Darjeeling Toy Train to escape from the searing heat to the highlands, you could go by elephant of the Maharajas to visit any bewitching landmark. But you could also be with camel into lonesome desert or just sit in the ghats of sacred Ganges to feel yourself.

My Opinion

India what a kinds of comprehensive country it is. I stay eight day but with eight different kinds enjoyment of travel, from hospitality to horrible tangle, from magnificence to poverty, from holy to rustic, from vigor to disorder. A great plenty of feel I could not explain from my mind, but also a very unique experience in my travelogue.
