This vivid forested land has been an inspiration to many a
writer such as Rudyard Kipling who wrote about it in his
“Jungle Book”. The bamboo thickets, extensive grassland and
dense forests are home to a wide variety of animals including
wolves, sloth bears, wild dogs, bison, leopards, cheetahs,
Asiatic lions and of course the Tiger- India’s vast and varied
topography offers something for every adventurer.
FESTIVALS OF INDIA
The Indian festival calendar is a busy one and including a
festival in a visit to India makes a trip very special. Festivals
in India have a long history and follow rituals which have
remained unchanged through generations. It is easy to
leave behind the hustle and bustle of the modern world,
and, for a while, escape into a different time. Not only will
these events give you some of the best photographs of your
visit, they will allow you to see some of the lesser known
aspects of the country.
