Athithi Devo Bhava (The guest is God): Spirit of India

India has for long been known as the land of mysteries, snake charmers, magic tricks and for its

enriched cultural variety. Not many people came to India thinking it was unsafe or due to the lack of 

amenities for comfortable stay. Gone are the days when tourists felt that way as today people from

across the globe throng to various parts of India completely enjoying every bit of the experience.

India clearly has marked its position as one of the most sought after tourist destination of the world.

The wide variety of choices available in the country is attracting more and more tourists. There are

beautiful valleys, beaches, hill stations, rivers, monuments and many other captivating spots in the

country. India has turned out to be a place where people come for spiritual salvation and get

rejuvenated.

The whole of India could be termed as different segments of 

tourist spots. There is the beautiful valley of Kashmir at the

top of the country holding the head high with pride. Then

comes the hill stations of Shimla and Manali that will make

you fall in love with nature. The parts of Delhi and Madhya

Pradesh are home to various historical monuments like the

Taj Mahal, Qutab Minar, Ajanta and Ellora caves. Coming

further south, there is the magnificent partying zone of Goa.

Towards the tip lies the most beautiful state of Kerala, where

God has bestowed greenery and all things beautiful.

Delhi, the capital city of the country, is home to various

monuments. The Taj Mahal, situated in Agra is the symbolic

representation of love through exotic architecture carved by

hand. The Birla Mandir, Azad Hind Gram, Akshardham temple,

Garden of Five Senses, the Red Fort and much more make the

city captivating. Varanasi is yet another city that acts a mirror

of the civilization of the yesteryears. The archeological

museums, the stupas and various other temples in Varanasi

are a great treat to watch.
