India - An Introduction

India is one country all men long to see, and having seen it once, would not give up that glimpse for all the wonders of the world, or so said Americal writer Mark Twain.

India is, indeed, incredible. Within the continent-of-a-country are the world's highest mountains, the Himalayas. Here is the great Indian desert, the Thar. Deep jungle where the tiger roams and the rhinos run wild. Sylvan beaches, among the longest in the world. One of the most ancient settlements - the Indus Valley Civilization.- with a recorded past of fve thousand years. Cradle of some of the oldest religions of the globe - Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism.

Equally enthralling momuments - forts, palaces, temples, memorials - line its historic face. Dances from the past survive as living arts even today. There is a vibrancy to the culture, at once ancient and modern.

For India is also modern with its 21st century metropolises, luxury hotels, airconditioned surface transport, hi-speed trains, networks of domestic airlines, Discotheques and shopping malls. Food - in an amazing range - Indian (oh, the variety!) and International. And music to blow your mind.
