in India |

in the north, and surrounded on three
sides by water (the Arabian Sea, Bay
of Bengal, and the Indian Ocean), with
a long history and diverse culture,

to see and things to do. In 2004, foreign
tourists visiting India spent 15.4 billion
USD - the ninth highest in the world.

than in other regions of the country.
This is a land of temples, a land of

the profusion of orange flowers, the
shade of the banyan tree, and the soft
beat of distant drums as yet another
festival starts... A Myriad of Temples. |

Taj mahal |
The
Taj Mahal is a mausoleum located in
Agra, India. The Mughal Emperor Shah
Jahan commissioned it as a mausoleum
for his favourite wife, Mumtaz Mahal.Construction
began in 1632 and was completed in approximately
1648. Some dispute surrounds the question
of who designed the Taj; it is clear
a team of designers and craftsmen were
responsible for the design, with Ustad
Ahmad Lahauri considered the most likely
candidate as the principal designer.
The Taj Mahal (sometimes called "the
Taj") is generally considered the
finest example of Mughal architecture,
a style that combines elements of Persian,
Turkish, Indian, and Islamic architectural
styles. While the white domed marble
mausoleum is the most familiar part
of the monument, the Taj Mahal is actually
an integrated complex of structures.
It was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage
Site in 1983 when it was described as
a "universally admired masterpieces
of the world's heritage.".. .more

is one of the six schools of Hindu philosophy,
focusing on meditation as a path to
self-knowledge and liberation. Hindu
texts establishing the basis for yoga
include the Upanishads, the Bhagavad
Gita, the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali,
the Hatha Yoga Pradipika and many others.
In India, Yoga is seen as a means to
both physiological and spiritual mastery.
Outside India, Yoga has become primarily
associated with the practice of asanas
(postures) of Hatha Yoga (see Yoga as
exercise), although it has influenced
the entire dharmic religions family
and other spiritual practices throughout
the world. A committed practitioner
of yoga is referred to as a yogi, yogin
(masculine), or yogini (feminine).... .more |
Ayurveda |
| Ayurveda or Ayurvedic
medicine is an ancient system of health
care that is native to the Indian subcontinent.
The word "Ayurveda" is a tatpurusha
compound of the word ayus meaning "life"
or "life principle", and the
word veda, which refers to a system of
"knowledge". Thus "Ayurveda"
roughly translates as the "knowledge
of life"....more |

at full brochure price. Late deals holidays
are more common at the start or end
of summer peak season but the short
winter and Easter holiday breaks rarely
see great cheap deals as everybody wants
