Heartland of the great Mughal empire, Indias northern plains are home to several of the countrys mostwondrous monumentsincluding the Taj Mahal and Fatehpur Sikrias well as its holiest river, theGanges. The principal natural feature of the northern plainsworshipped as a nur-turing MotherGoddess by Hindusis the river revered as Ma Ganga, which gushes out of the Himalayan foothills atRishikesh and wends southeast towards its confluence with the regions other main artery, the Jamuna, at

Allahabad. From there, the Ganga travels lazily west through the ancient city of Varanasi and to theformer seat of the Mauryans, Patna, capital of modern-day Bihar. Spiritualiy also abounds in this state atBodhgaya, where the Buddha was said to have achieved Enlightenment.

Riven in two by Partition in 1947, the Punjab was named after the five major tributaries of the Indusflowing through it. Only a couple of these drain through the modern Indian state abutting the Pakistaniborder, but it still ranks among the most fertile parts of the country.
