Visit North India, where ancient traditions define daily life and tales of gods and demons, kings, queens and court intrigues, carved in stone and painted on wood, come alive. The splendor of huge forts and ornate palaces provides an enduring reminder of India’s glorious past, while daily encounters with the rituals and traditions that have survived through the ages provide a uniquely memorable experience. The jangle of bells and horns, clouds of lime green parakeets, the scent of jasmine and spices, along with crimson, fuchsia and saffron saris provide a kaleidoscopic feast for the senses and intellect as one experiences the rhythm and dignity of life in this remarkable country.
