A love for colour, an eye for detail and a heart to enjoy are the only things required to savour the eternal aroma of the most geographically and linguistically varied part of Incredible India. Nestling on the lap of the mighty Himalayas and stretching its contours to the warm sands of the Thar Desert, north India is an anbrosial bouquet of surprises embellished with a variety of wild and exotic flowers. Nothing in this part is ever quite what you expect, and the only thing to expect is the unexpected, which comes in many forms. A connoisseur of vibrant colours, which boasts of a rich cultural heritage, is how North India is viewed across the world. You cannot escape from its history, but also cannot face it. For a heritage lover, the whole land is dotted with exquisite monuments that surely takes one to some other realm, lost in the mystery of time for ages. Lonesome trails, torrential rapids, hard barren rocks; for a hungry adventure seeker, the North Indian landscape turns into a formidable arena on the lap of mighty Himalayas. With no hominal excuse, the tiger lords it over the shifting sands of Rajasthan, which reverberates with the rhythms of the rambling camel. Red costumes, white palaces, blue colonies, pink city... is what makes Rajasthan a palette of exuberant colours.
And if you are among them who listen to their heart, Uttar Pradesh will open her gates to the memorial of love.. an incarnation of poetry in marble at the world famous Taj Mahal. Hear the call to arms, share the love of a Mughal emperor for his wife, rediscover quiet tombs by a beautiful river or the panache of a bygone era that gave us dum pukht - a cuisine the world craves. Enjoy tranquility on the ancient ghats of Varanasi, meditate and elevate your spirits with the floating aroma of incense sticks. The beauty of this part of India is defined in a way of simplicity yet opulence, where you will get everything you need for a perfect vacation trip, without leaving any scope for imagination. And yet, for a bon vivant of fine cuisine and culture, ayurveda and yoga, heritage and pilgrimage, the high-rising tourism of north India comes as a dream come true in its finest holiday attire. You do not need any other reason to come to Northern India, do you?
