Welcome to India

Hi everyone.... this is a blog I dedicate to my Nation 'India' and here I will explore different facets of my country - its cities, towns, culture, history, exotic locations, scenic beauty and much more. 

My country has so much to offer and I want people residing outside India to definitely come and visit us. Right from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, India is full of richness, diversity and variety. 

We are so different, yet we have so much in common.

There are many books, television stories and websites out there which give a nice look and feel of the country. But, all that is nothing in comparison to your own experiences when you personally land here.



Welcome to India.
