Why should visit India

History

Did you know that India is home to some of the oldest human civilizations? The history stretches far back in time, and lots of the old traditions, such as Ayurvedic medicine is still being used today.

If you like history, I suggest you visit India and explore the various heritage that can be found all over the country.

Yoga and mindfulness

India is a popular destination for youths and even older men and women who want to find themselves. So, why do they all seek to visit India to find themselves? The answer is quite simple.

Thanks to old spiritual techniques and beliefs, India is home to many life gurus and various meditation and yoga retreats, some of the best actually, so it’s no surprise that many soul searchers find their way here.

If you want to go on a spiritual journey, then Visit India!

The Chaos

Think everything sounds perfect so far? Well, India is much about everything, including the bad. You will see poor people, and I mean really poor people living in the streets. Cows are roaming freely, cars and rickshaws are everywhere, and yeah, there are people almost everywhere in the cities, but that is also the beauty of it.

And if you embrace the chaos and you will get a very genuine and memorable trip to India!

Holi Festival

Also known as the festival of colors is a colorful display where people throw color dust all over the place. Thousands of people gather to join the celebrations, and so should you!

Tea

Did you know that India produces some of the world’s best tea? Yes, that’s right. The Darjeeling region is world famous for its tea plantations, which are both gorgeous and offer delicious tea!

And, of course, the sweet Chai Tea, which has become a worldwide known tea. You might have tried it, but I promise that it’s even better here in India, and everyone drinks it. Chai tea is a daily ritual among many Indians.

Places to visit in India

So, you have got some reasons to visit India already, but there’s more.. 

Rajasthan

Home to the pink city Jaipur, the blue city Jodhpur and lots of other famous tourist attractions in India. Rajasthan is a must place to Visit in India and it houses a great amount of history and culture, just like the rest of India!

New Delhi

Delhi belly and chaos are two things that many tourists remember from New Delhi, but despite that, I think it’s worth a visit. We arrived here and were immediately experiencing a culture shock, despite the fact that we had been traveling already in Asia for nearly 3 months before visiting New Delhi

In New Delhi, you can expect everything. Stunning architecture, LOTS of people, street food, CHEAP accommodation. We paid no more than 4 Euros for a private room in the backpacker area of Paharganj. It’s a very interesting destination that I think all world travelers should experience at least once!

Mumbai

Home to Bollywood and almost 20 million people makes it one of the biggest cities in the world. If you want to experience the city life of India I can highly recommend Mumbai. It’s a city that’s improving fast and it’s becoming more and more modern every day.

Taj Mahal

You probably already know about Taj Mahal, but it’s too majestic to be left out of this list of reasons to Visit India. I’ve seen lots of temples, churches, palaces, houses and modern buildings, but there is only one Taj Mahal, and the details are marvelous.

The fact that the city of Agra and Taj Mahal also inspired the famous Disney movie Aladdin, makes it even more epic!

Kerala

God’s own country, also known as Kerala. Famous for its Backwaters and wildlife in the dense jungles where tigers roam freely along with many other endemic species. If you like paradise beaches and nature, then Kerala is a must place to visit in India!

The people are super friendly as well, and many of them speak English very well. Another thing about Kerala is that it’s very romantic and you can, for example, rent a houseboat and just follow the streams of the Backwaters of Kerala.

Southern India also has lots of food dishes that are simply delicious!

Bangalore

The IT-city of India, home to many computer and software companies. It’s an interesting city because so many speak English just as good as you and me, thus inviting you to learn more about the Indian culture first hand. It’s also the third biggest city in India, so you can expect lots of people and lots of things to do!

It’s also the third biggest city in India, so you can expect lots of people and lots of things to do!

Varanasi

The holiest city of them all, and the place where the holiest river flows through – The Ganges. Varanasi is a very interesting destination where you get the experience culture and religion in abundance. Each day you can see people getting cremated and it seems like the fire and ashes never blow out in Varanasi.

On top of that, you can meet holy men, and they are everywhere. Varanasi is also a popular place to go for those who visit India for spiritual practices such as meditation and yoga, and there are various retreats where you can stay and practice.

Kashmir

Fancy hiking and beautiful scenery? Then head to the North, more specifically Kashmir! Known for its cotton and stunning views and mountains it’s a must place to visit in India!

There is also lots of culture and historic places to explore in the Kashmir region.

Goa

Longing for those paradise beaches, yoga retreats and some rehab for your soul? Goa has it all, including some great party spots! However, I do want to emphasize that you won’t experience the “real” India in Goa, but it’s well worth a visit!

And yes, cows roam freely in Goa too! Amazing, right?

Kolkata

Color yourself in red in Durga Puja, an exciting festival in Kolkata where everyone gathers to join the celebrations! It’s an annual Hindu festival that occurs in September. The best time to Visit Kolkata besides during Durga Puja is from November to February!

Just as in other cities in India, Kolkata has lots of tourist attractions waiting to be discovered!

Rishikesh

Another spiritual place in India where many people seek guidance and yoga/meditation retreats. Rishikesh is a lovely place to go when you visit India. Cleanse your soul and learn something from within here in Rishikesh, and take the lessons with you for the rest of your life!
