Popularly known as the "<b>land of dawn-lit mountains</b>," Arunachal Pradesh is the lauded for being India's first region to greet the morning sun. It is the home to 26 different indigenous tribes, Arunachal Pradesh is perhaps the last sanctuary for India's natural heritage. It was here that Sage Parshuram washed away his sin, Sage Vyasa meditated, King Bhismaka found his kingdom and Lord Krishna married his consort Rukmini. What pulled me for a Arunachal Pradesh trip was the hills and climate, a glorious heritage and colourful festivals and traditions.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.incredible-northeastindia.com/arunachal-pradesh/attractions.html" target="_blank"><b>Arunachal Pradesh tourism</b></a> has the following prominent attractions:<br />
<br />
<b>Tawang </b>- The place is famous as the birthplace of the 6th Dalai Lama, the city is abode to Monpa tribe. The place has derived its name from one of the oldest and largest Buddhist monasteries in India - <b>400 year old - Tawang Monastery</b>. It is believed that the site on which the monastery has been constructed was chosen by the horse. War memorial, Urgelling Gompa, Sela Pass, Gorsam Chorten are some of the tourist places in Tawang.<br />

<b>Itanagar </b>- Capital of Arunachal Pradesh, Itanagar is named after the irregular shaped <b>Itafort</b> which is the main attraction. Rich culture, tribal heritage and traditions are the distinguished feature of Itanagar. Buddhist temple, Ganga Lake, Polo Park, Jawaharlal Nehru Museum are places worth visiting here.<br />
<br />
<b>Bomdila</b> - Bomdila is famous for its <b>Buddhist monasteries and Apple Orchards</b>. It also offers excellent trekking endeavors to tempt the intrepid travelers. The town has enticing eating places where one can savor traditional cuisine and all time favorites- momos and thupkas. There are also many temples in the town both Buddhist and Hindu in practice.<br />
<br />
<b>Itanagar Wildlife Sanctuary</b>- Diverse climatic and topographical conditions give way to a variety of flora and fauna. Some of the rare species here include antelopes, mittan, serow and goral.<br />
<br />
In addition to tourism places, the state also provides a heaven endowing abundant scope for <b>adventure activities</b>. I had a great time indulging myself in angling, boating, rafting, trekking and hiking. With this, my <b>Arunachal Pradesh tourism</b> came to an end!</div>

A modern metropolitan city with a historic past is what surmises Delhi. The capital has seen the rise and fall of many empires. Delhi is truly a cosmopolitan city which brings together people of various ethnic groups and their traditions and cultures. Its rich culture is reflected in the variety of arts, crafts, cuisines, festivals and lifestyles. <a href="http://www.tajmahal-india-tours.com/delhi-tourism/" target="_blank"><b>Tourism in Delhi</b></a> state combines the modern and the traditional aspects; from traditional bazaars to mega malls, from historical monuments to modern architectural wonders Delhi has it all. To visit this cultural potpourri, I envisaged on a <b>trip to Delhi</b>, the imperial city.<br />
<br />
My first encounter in <b>Delhi sightseeing</b> was with the mighty <b>Qutub Minar</b>: It is the highest tower in India in red and buff sandstone. Numerous inscriptions in Nagari and Arabic in different places reveal the Qutub history. At the foot of the tower is the Quwwat Ul Islam Mosque, the 1st in India built on the ruins of Hindu temples. A 7m high iron pillar stands in the courtyard of the mosque.<br />
<br />
<b>India Gate</b>: This landmark in India commemorates the members of the India Army who sacrificed their lives in the war. Amar Jawan Jyoti is the largest war memorials in India which is burning since 1971. It is a 5 storey tower and each is unique in its design. In the evening, the entire boulevard is lined with vehicles and people making it a leisurely spot.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.tajmahal-india-tours.com/delhi-tourism/humayuns-tomb.html" target="_blank"><b>Humayun’s Tomb</b></a>: Is the 1st distinct example of Mughal style and the 1st garden tomb in India. The tomb is constructed in typical char bagh style.<br />

<b>Lotus Temple</b>- Known as the Baha I House of worship, it is a prominent attraction due to its lotus shape with 27 petals and 9 pools surrounding it. The massive hall offers for a peaceful prayer hall where one can sit and meditate in silence. One is required to remove their shoes before entering the hall and observe silence.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.tajmahal-india-tours.com/delhi-tourism/red-fort.html" target="_blank"><b>Red Fort</b></a> - Is known as Lal Qila because of the extensive use of red sandstone; it is located near the river Yamuna. The major highlight is the massive 2 km long wall. Every evening, there is a display of history through the light and sound show. Every year on 15th August, the prime minister addresses to the nation from here. In 2007, it was declared as a UNESCO World Heritage site.</div>

Tiger Reserve</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 16.0pt;">
is famous for a variety of flora and fauna owing to its extensive topography; the
rugged park terrain alternates between dry deciduous forest, open grassy meadow
and the forests also abounds with aquatic vegetation including duckweeds,
lilies and lotus. I was all the more excited for a glance of the Tigers here.</span>

accompanied by a trained guide is a must here. There are fixed timings for
safaris in the morning and evenings and a prescribed route is followed. One can
see Tigers hunting their prey in the vast open grasslands. One thing to be kept
specifically in mind is that certain rules have to be followed while you are in
the forest premises for your convenience.</span></div>

a 10<sup>th</sup> century fort which is massive and overlooks the park, all
around the fort one can see many old ruins including palaces, cenotaphs,
temples and houses. The Ganesh temple which lies very close to the fort is a
major draw here.</span></div>

is necessary for low-altitude trekking and nature walks. However, for

People below 16 years and above 60 years are also discouraged from participating
in this sport.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: small;">Ladakh,
the far flung Eastern corner of Jammu and Kashmir is India’s most remote place,
a high altitude snow desert cradled by the Karakoram and Great Himalaya ranges.
There is no other land like Ladakh. It is rich in natural beauty, sightseeing
destinations and calm weather. The
valleys of Ladakh are the perfect destinations for the adventure activities and
the best way to explore the beauty of the ranges. Most of the valleys give you
a break to explore monasteries and Gompas. To enjoy the pristine and calmness
of the valley, I decided to explore the valleys personally. My journey included
the beautiful <a href="http://www.ladakh-leh.com/ladakh-travel/drass-valley.html" target="_blank"><b>Drass valley</b></a>. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: small;">Nurtured
by the Drass River which rises in the Machoi glacier near the Zojila Pass, the
enchanting Drass valley is situated at an altitude of 3230 m. this cold valley
starts from the Zojila Pass, the Himalayan gateway to Ladakh. As I stepped into
the valley, I noticed the carvings of a king and 2 women on the pillar. The
pillars bore some inscriptions in the old Brahmi script. The valley is
inhabited by Dard Stock which is an Aryan race. Drass experiences the lowest
temperatures in the valley, it is said to be the 2<sup>nd</sup> coldest
inhabited place in Asia. Drass is famous for the Kargil war which was fought in
1999. Rugged landscapes, adventure buffs and trekking cliffs are some of the
main attractions in <b>Drass valley tour</b>.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: small;"></span><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: small;">This
valley is the world famous <b>trekking site</b>;
it offers a number of small and long trek routes to the tourists. The 3 day
long trek to Suru valley across the sub range separating the two valleys is the
popular <b>Drass valley trek</b>. The
trekking tour passes through some of the most splendid upland villages and
crosses Umbala pass offering a scenic view of meadows and flower valleys. Some
of the must visit attractions in Drass valley travel are <b>Tiger Hill</b>- The highest peak in this area known as Point 5353. </span>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: small;">It
was subject to the 1999 Kargil war; it is a strategic route way and connects
Srinagar to Leh in Ladakh. I also visited the <b>Kargil war memorial</b>- a memorial built in pink sandstone and has an
epitaph commemorating the sacrifice of the soldiers. A war gallery known as the
Manoj Pandey art gallery showcases weapons and artillery recovered from
Pakistani forces. With not much to explore further, my tour had ended. Overall
my trip to Drass valley was snow bound and quite chilly but has left a
scintillating experience with its grace.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: small;">A
historic city widely acclaimed for its lovely temples, Khajuraho in Madhya
Pradesh is located in the woody plains of Bundelkhand region. The city has been
rightly called as the symbol of medieval heritage. The appealing temples of
Khajuraho present a wonderful blend of architectural and sculptural sheerness,
representing one of the preeminent examples of Indian Art. I also had always wanted to witness the
grandeur and delicacy of the temples and planned for a <a href="http://www.tajmahal-india-tours.com/golden-triangle-excursions/khajuraho-tourism.html" target="_blank"><b>Khajuraho tourism</b></a>.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: small;">The
<b>temples at Khajuraho</b> are a brilliant
example of medieval architecture built under the later Chandela Kings between
AD 950 and AD 1050. The temples are
divided into various categories namely Western group of temples, Eastern group
and Southern group of temples. My temple tour started with visit to <b>Adinath temple</b>; richly ornamented with
frail and pretty sculptures, this temple is dedicated to the 1<sup>st</sup>
Jain tirthankars, Adinath. The temple is constructed in the form of lime
plastered masonry, showing arched doorways. Constructed in the form of ‘sapta rath’
with the passage of time only the sanctum and the corridor roofs of the temple
have survived. The walls are decorated with beautifully carved images and
postures of court musicians. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNoSpacing" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: small;">The
next temple was <b>Parsvanath temple</b>.
It is the largest Jain temple in the Eastern group; the temple features
intricate stone carvings and sculptures enshrining a throne facing a bull
emblem that represents the 1<sup>st</sup> tirthankar. Next on the itinerary was
Chitragupta temple; dedicated to the Sun god, it is one of the venues for the
Khajuraho dance festival. The temple features a massive 5 feet tall deity in
the inner sanctum driving a horse drawn chariot. The Chaturbhuj temple located
in the southern side of the complex is the only important temple that faces
west.</span><br />

has 4 arms. The temple has a huge cross shaped congregation hall that caters to
devotees of Krishna Bhakti cult. Lotus emblem and other symbols provide the delicate
exterior ornamentation. <span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">Indeed the <b>Khajuraho

Himalayan environment, gurgling streams, Snowcapped Mountains, Richness of culture and Monasteries; the most alluring features of Sikkim makes you want to visit this energetic and refreshing place. I also made up my mind to enjoy the untouched natural beauty and freshness and headed for <a href="http://www.incredible-northeastindia.com/sikkim/" target="_blank"><b>Sikkim holidays</b></a>. On arrival at the Bagdogra airport, I was driven to Gangtok, the capital of Sikkim state. The first place was the beautiful Tsomgo Lake, which is literally known as source of the lake. <br />
<br />
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="borders" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; text-align: left;"><tbody>

</tbody></table>
It is situated at a height of 12000 ft on Gangtok Nathu La highway and falls in the restricted area for which a permit is required. A small temple of Lord Shiva is forged on the lakeside. Going upwards the hills, the next destination is Nathu La Pass. Also known as the Silk Route, Nathu La is situated on the borders of India and China. It is at an elevation of 14450 ft and one of the highest motor able routes. One needs special permit to visit this Pass. The place is extremely cold and temperature drops below freezing point.<br />
<br />
After this <a href="http://www.incredible-northeastindia.com/sikkim/attractions.html" target="_blank"><b>Sikkim attraction</b></a>, coming down the Pass way lays the legendary Baba Mandir. It was built in memory of a soldier in the 23rd Punjab regiment. The temple is believed to have wish- fulfilling powers and the water kept in the shrine gains healing property. It is believed that he is still doing his duty on borders even after his death some 3 decades back!! The whole roadway has a picturesque backdrop of Kanchenjunga range. After this tour, my next on itinerary was <a href="http://www.incredible-northeastindia.com/sikkim/monasteries.html" target="_blank"><b>Sikkim monasteries</b></a>; the 1st being Rumtek monastery. <br />
<br />
It is one of the largest monasteries in Sikkim built in the 16th century. The main temple is 4 storied with a golden sculpture and is decorated with traditional colorful murals. The shrine hall stands on strong red pillars with silk banners and ancient thankas suspended from them. Next in Sikkim tour was Bakthang Waterfalls- the most beautiful falls in Sikkim. It is along the national highway 31A. It is a completely crowd free place to enjoy the scenic views; ideal for picnicking and photography. <br /><br />

</tbody></table>
Then next place to visit was Ganesh Tok. It is a very small temple located on the Gangtok- Nathu La road. The temple is devoted to Lord Ganesha. It is so small that it can just accommodate only one person at a time; one must crawl to get into the temple. Being situated at a height, one can get a clear view of the whole town. <br /><br />
My trip concluded with a shopping spree in M G road, which is the most famous in Sikkim. Lined with bustling shops and colorful activities, one can find a wide range of items here to choose from. With this my <a href="http://www.incredible-northeastindia.com/india-tour-packages/sikkim-delight.html" target="_blank"><b>Sikkim tour</b></a> came to an end. Though small but beautiful, Sikkim is a prominent destination for every travel enthusiast. Steep heights and plunging gorges, stretches covered in snow- this is what sums up Sikkim. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Trekking high mountains have been
occupying a place in my mind when I was a teenager. I, Richard got so excited
to read about trekking in Ladakh that I planned an <b>India adventure tour</b> last vacation. The motto was to experience the
Frozen Zanskar trek in the rugged terrain of Ladakh<b>.</b> </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">While deciding for that
expedition, I was overjoyed to try such exciting opportunities. Losing in the
thoughts of the adventure, I along with Neil and John, my two adventure mates
reached Leh airport that lies about 230 km away. We took rest for rest of the
day. After discussing for a couple of hours, we were ready to embark on the
challenging trek and I became overjoyed. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Soon, my joy was replaced by a
mix feeling of thrill, nervousness and anxiety. <b>The Zanskar region was located at a jaw-dropping elevation of 3850 m. </b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">The temperature around the trekking
area further added to my perplexity. It was at 15 degree Celsius. But my two
pals, Neil and John boosted me by denoting at our backpackers, which was no
where lacking of heavy winter clothes. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Heaving a sigh of relief, I
was back to take this opportunity of lifetime. <b>The Frozen Zanskar River trek stands apart for being one of the most
arduous trails.</b> In the beginning, it was more of simple trek but as we
moved on to escalate a frozen camp at Tipkyeak Bawo, it became strenuous. We
had to traverse the lofty rocks because of the melting ice. Then we rested
ourselves a camp, which was set up to rest for the night. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Next day morning, we started
our day with a brave smile and the next part of our <a href="http://www.ladakh-leh.com/ladakh-travel/zanskar.html" target="_blank"><b>Zanskar trekking </b></a>adventure
began. <b>It took us through the ice-laden
landscapes marked with frozen waterfalls that appeared like ice cliffs. </b></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Our Zanskar trekking continued
on the third day as well and we aimed to reach Markala. After facing a bit
difficulty, we were able to complete that arduous expedition.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Next day, we waited with
baited breath to explore the entire frozen Chadar River. At last, we felt
delighted while witnessing the most fragile land. Though we had to push
ourselves to reach the end point yet we did it.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";">Our joy knew no

trekkers, we bid adieu to Ladakh. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: small;"></span><span style="font-size: small;">While traveling to the world
of wonders, I was not aware that the experience would surpass my expectations.
Recalling my <b>Agra trip</b> brings me
back to my journey to the fabulous city.<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif";"><b> </b></span>I along with my three
friends, <b>Jessica, Terence and Levy</b>,
started off from Delhi by car. Though my friends wanted to book an Agra tour
package, yet I insisted to go by car as I had already been to Agra. It took us more
than four hours to reach the city. As <a href="http://www.tajmahal-india-tours.com/agra-tourism/" target="_blank"><b>Agra tourism</b></a> boasts of its numerous architectural
marvels so one after another, there were various historic monuments to see on our
list. </span>

<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">But rest of the attractions
took a backseat when it came to visit <b>Taj
Mahal in Agra</b>. Built by Shah Jahan in the memory of his adorable wife
Mumtaz, the mausoleum is among the few important sites around the world that
meets with the hype it has been given. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">That stunning marble
architecture at once holds your attention with its breathtaking appeal that
captured our eyes for few good seconds. The intricate design, the marvelous
architecture and the fascinating appeal did not allow us to leave the place too
soon. We stayed back there until evening and then headed on to see other
monuments of the city. The splendor and the charm of the monument were just
beyond description. Visiting one of the <b>Seven
Wonders of the World</b> brings you a proud feeling. </span></div>

exteriors of the <b>Agra Fort,</b> we moved
on to the fort on our <b>travel to Agra.</b>
With its imposing white marble mosque, it encompasses a little world of marvels.
These included Moti Masjid, Diwan-i-Khaas, Diwan-i-Aam, Sheesh Mahal,
Jahangir’s Palace and lots more. A series of other buildings we visited in Agra
were <a href="http://www.tajmahal-india-tours.com/agra-tourism/chini-ka-rauza.html" target="_blank"><b>Chini ka Rauza</b></a> and <a href="http://www.tajmahal-india-tours.com/agra-tourism/itmad-ud-daulah.html" target="_blank"><b>Itmad-ud-daula’s Tomb</b></a> exemplifying the Mughal architecture.
<b>Jama Masjid in Agra</b> was another

history to captivate you. We approached <a href="http://www.tajmahal-india-tours.com/agra-tourism/fatehpur-sikri.html" target="_blank"><b>Fatehpur Sikri</b></a> at the end of our <b>Agra travel, </b>lying around 40 kms from
the city. Established by Emperor Akbar, the site was a tribute to famous Sufi

<b>We were in the search of a distant place, away from the

to <a href="http://www.indiawildlifeinfo.com/wildlife-parks/periyar-national-park-kerala.html" target="_blank"><b>Periyar National Park</b></a> that has been long pending in our list of must visit
destinations in India. We had to fly Kerala to visit this spectacular wildlife
destination. Soon we were at our destination and settled for a hotel to shed
off the fatigue. </div>

<b>Lying in the Idukki district of Kerala, Periyar Wildlife
Sanctuary is a zestfully protected wildlife destination in India.</b> It houses
40 good numbers of tigers. Snuggled between the Cardamom hills and the Pandalam
hills in the Southern Western Ghats, the park enticed us at very first sight.<b>
We felt like being in a destination where all you could see was the panorama of
nature in its full bloom. </b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Kumily is the nearest town centre that lies at a distance of
4 km away. The hills were enveloped by dense evergreen and moist deciduous
forests that provide a thick cover. Though we could not sight the tigers yet we
came across various animals.<b> The animals we saw there were leopards,
elephants, deer, bison and numerous birds</b>. My children enjoyed the sights
of playful Nilgiri Langur, hanging around that kept them entertained for few
minutes. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The time was to return and our stomachs were pleading for
dinner. We went to restaurant and ordered fish curry and local cuisine with the
well-known flavour of Kerala.<br />

Next day we delighted ourselves with a <b>full day trek
through terrain that encompasses dense valleys, swamps, open grasslands and
woodlands.</b> My wife Ketthy could not stop herself taking a boat ride across
the lake and I had to accompany her. Unlike others we could not see many
wildlife species but we enjoyed spotting few of them. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Ketthy loved nature walk which she enjoyed while I was
taking pictures of rare animals. Moreover, <b>we also visited the nearby tribal
village to learn about their culture. </b>As it was our <b>Kerala tour</b> so
how could we miss out the much talked about Ayurveda massage. Various therapies
and treatments offered at the finest <b>Ayurveda resorts in Kerala </b>are
worth to experience. We selected a rejuvenation package of Ayurveda and that
was the best part of our <b>wildlife tour to Kerala.</b></div>

<b>The culture of any palace attracts me like a magnet.</b> I had
never been to North eastern states of India and that was the only reason why I opted
Arunachal Pradesh for my next tour. Though we (Harry and David) were on an
adventurous trip, even though I was happy to plan my <b><a href="http://www.incredible-northeastindia.com/arunachal-pradesh/" target="_blank">Arunachal Pradesh travel</a>.</b>
<b>The easternmost state of India is aptly referred to as the 'Land of Dawn-lit
Mountains</b>'. The excitement got doubled and I was all set to explore <b><a href="http://www.incredible-northeastindia.com/arunachal-pradesh/attractions.html" target="_blank">Aruachal Pradesh Attractions</a>.</b></div>

Starting from New Delhi, we reached Guwahati, the capital of
Assam by flight. Then we had to take a pre-paid taxi from the Airport itself.
We arrived at Tezpur and stayed in a hotel where we had already made our booking.
Fascinated by culture and an adventure-freak by heart, I was too delighted to
enter the small village of Tezpur. <a href="http://www.incredible-northeastindia.com/arunachal-pradesh/adventure-sports.html" target="_blank"><b>Trekking in Arunachal Pradesh</b></a> is the
most popular activity among adventure-enthusiasts.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
As we had already enjoyed trekking so many times on our
different adventure tours, so we looked for other activities on our <b>Arunachal
Pradesh Adventure Tour.</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
We opted for <b>River Rafting in Arunachal Pradesh.</b>
It can be enjoyed in various parts of the state. Our excitement got multiplied when we started off <b>river
rafting along Kameng</b>. The rivers and their numerous tributaries, gushing
down from the mountains at raving speed added more excitement and fun to our <b>adventure
trip to Arunachal Pradesh</b>. Next, we visited Dibang (Anini-Assam
Border) where we enjoyed the adventure of river rafting.</div>

Harry was more interested in fishing, another popular<b>
adventure in Arunachal Pradesh. </b>As Harry did not want to miss out the opportunity of fishing,
we accompanied him and headed on to Tezu (on the Lohit river). Though we had to
wait for a couple of hours but we ended up with catching few fishes. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Based on my knowledge, I was more willing to enjoy fishing
of Mahaseer and Trout. But we had to skip the plan as we had already spent few
hours indulging in fishing and the time limitation stopped us to continue
further. Even Harry was happy as he could enjoy a good experience of <b>fishing,
</b>counted among the popular<b> <a href="http://www.incredible-northeastindia.com/arunachal-pradesh/adventure-sports.html" target="_blank">Arunachal Pradesh Adventure Sports</a>.</b> It was
a wonderful experience of adventure for us and we left back with enthralling
memories.</div>

myself to devotion of the God. This made me go on exploring places related to
Lord Krishna. Once my friend Janipher who planned her <b>India tou</b>r in near
future suggested me to accompany her for <a href="http://www.tajmahal-india-tours.com/golden-triangle-excursions/mathura-travel.html" target="_blank"><b>Mathura travel</b></a>. I jumped at it
and simply uttered, “Needn't ask for good deeds” and started preparing for the

<b><span lang="EN-GB"><br />I met Janipher in Delhi and accompanied
her at 5:30 and immediately we left for the birth place of Lord Krishna</span></b><span lang="EN-GB">. After 4 hours journey without taking a halt, we touched the ground
of Mathura. The holy city of Mathura lies 145 km from Delhi. Though we just
wanted to explore the city but to refresh ourselves we booked our sojourn at a
Dharamshala at Mathura. Once done with bath and then breakfast, we left to
explore <b>Mathura temples</b>. There were many temples but we opted the famous
ones. <b>Dwarkadheesh Temple</b> was the first one where we went. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">Situated near the sacred river Yamuna,
Dwarkadheesh Temple speaks volume of its unique architectural style. This holy
abode of Lord Krishna is among the most revered shrines in Mathura.<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span lang="EN-GB">Imposing structural design and stunning
paintings combined with wonderful carvings just leave you mesmerised</span></b><span lang="EN-GB">. The beautifully designed idol of Lord Krishna soaks you in
devotion. The temple also depicts the pictures of Radha and other Gods. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">Built by the Birla group, <b>Gita Mandir
Temple</b> was the next <b>attraction in Mathura,</b> we visited. It is acclaimed across the world for its
Bhagavad Gita inscription on the walls. The exquisite carvings and paintings
grabbed our attention for few minutes. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span lang="EN-GB">Shri Krishna’s Janam Bhoomi </span></b><span lang="EN-GB">was next on our <b>Mathura visit. </b>The temple holds great
importance among visitors as it lies on the birthplace of Lord Krishna. This
religious spot in Mathura also shares its wall with the Jami Masjid. How could
I miss out <b>“Mathura ke Pede”</b> ( a famous sweet) and got it packed just to
enjoy after the tour ends. </span></div><br />

<span lang="EN-GB">After that blissful experience at Lord
Krishna Temples, we left for Vrindavan. People of this holy city also seem
immersing in the devotion of Lord Krishna. Another city with abundance of
temples</span> <b><span lang="EN-GB">Radha Vallabh temple</span></b><span lang="EN-GB"> was simply amazing. We had to follow a long queue of devotees for
Darshan.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB">Finally, we succeeded and then headed to <b>Banke-Bihari
Temple</b>. Another amazing temple of Lord Krishna that enabled us to forget
all the worldly worries for some time and all we could think of Lord Sri
Krishna. Madan Mohan temple was the last one on our visit to Vrindavan.
Jennipher seem contented with the trip and so was I. <b>We left for Delhi with
the echo of the chantings of “Hare Krishna.”</b></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB">As he left all the responsibility to manage
this trip on me, I gathered information about Jim Corbett National Park. We
decided to go by car and left for Ramnagar. Though that five hours journey
proved bit tiresome yet it could not decrease our excitement to encounter the

through dense forest patches of <b>Jim Corbett National Park. </b></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB">The area along the gorgeous Ramganga River
into the far-stretched Dhikala Forest Rest House enables you to pass through
dried up rivers, steep climbs and dense forest. First a scared Barking Deer
came into our sight and then a heard of monkeys who were little away from our
Gypsy. </span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB">For almost half an hour, we were watching
the path with bated breath to check if there might be a tiger around. The
forested hillside was standstill and then we had to move on. After going ahead,
we captured the sight of a Leopard who was slowly coming towards our Gypsy.
Though Tigers were difficult to spot yet we did not lose hope.<b> We took a
halt at the Crocodile Point. </b>It lies on the corner of a hilltop from where
you can look into the blue waters of the Ramganga River. </span></div>

decided to go by car and David contributed the idea by offering his car for the

rafting, the highlighting attraction of <b>Rishikesh tourism.</b> All three of
us wore life jackets and our<b> adventure of river rafting</b> began. As we
went on Rishikesh visit in October, we were able to enjoy this water sport
adventure. It was the time when water level of Ganges
was not very high and the rapids were full blown. </span></div>

on a big raft and experiencing the gushing water made us shiver at first but

near a camping site. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: 12.0pt;">I
have always been fascinated reading and hearing about <b>Delhi</b>. So, I along with my family took
a <b>Delhi</b><b>

with the <a href="http://www.tajmahal-india-tours.com/delhi-tourism/red-fort.html" target="_blank"><b>Red Fort</b></a> in <b>Old Delhi</b>. On the first look itself from the
entrance gate, t<span style="color: black;">his majestic monument captivated me.<b>
</b>I was so excited to discover what’s in store. The <b>Chhatta Chowk</b> aka
Meena Baazar on the entrance pavement took me to the time of Mughal era. I
started imagining how this small market would be then. Built by Mughal emperor Shah
Jahan, this fort made of red sandstone has many attractive spots inside. <b>Rang
Mahal or </b>the <b>Palace</b><b>
of Colours</b> <b>with
marble pool is strikingly beautiful. The lavishly decorated private audience
hall, Diwan-e-Khas and Diwan-e-am, the public hall are magnificently
constructed.</b></span></span></div>

heard a lot about this well-known parathe lane called <b>Paranthe wali Gali </b>and

selling varieties of parathas. We savoured paneer parathe, kaju, matar, badam
paratha. We also purchased sarees with zari work, jewellery, shoes and some
other stuff from <b>Chandni Chowk</b>.</span></div>

complex located near the Nizamuddin

tour guide</b> took us to <b>Lotus</b><b>
Temple</b>. <b>This
modern architecture in the shape of a lotus flower is a famous prayer hall of

<b>Parliament House</b> and <b>President House.</b></span></div>

delight, we went for shopping and picked up lots of things from <b>Connought Place</b>,
Sarojini Nagar and Lajpat Nagar at affordable rates.</span></div>
<div class="Textbody" style="text-align: justify;">

It was in October when I visited<b> Ranthambhore National Park.
</b>With the idea of getting some relief from exhausting schedule, I undertook
the trip. Visiting India
second time did not cause me much trouble as I was ready to go for a mindful
journey to India.
<b>I along with my wife Jenny reached Delhi
in an evening of weekend</b>. Assured by our travel operator in Delhi for every
arrangement, we went to the hotel and after relishing our dinner, we fall off
to sleep. Our next day was dedicated to the visit to this national park. <br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
We took a flight to reach<b> Jaipur in Rajasthan</b> and
from there we headed towards <b><a href="http://www.indiawildlifeinfo.com/wildlife-resorts/ranthambhore-bagh.html" target="_blank">Ranthambore Bagh Resort</a> </b>where our stay was
already confirmed by our tour operator in Delhi.
It took us around 4 hours to reach the Ranthambhore National Park.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>That is how the excitement to see wildlife began! </b>Jenny,
my wife is truly a photography lover. She carried her camera and we left for <b><a href="http://www.indiawildlifeinfo.com/wildlife-parks/ranthambhore-national-park-jaipur.html" target="_blank">Ranthambhore National Park</a>,</b> the <b>popular wildlife
destination in Rajasthan.</b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
We had one gypsy booked so that we could enjoy photography
as well. <b>Entering that picturesque zone, we first came across the lakes and
great bird life. </b>Our first halt was at Padam Lake.
The wildlife creatures we came across were egret, snake, bird and parakeets.
Moving ahead, we captured the sights of spotted deers, owls, watching eagerly and
grey heron.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Our excitement to see tigers made us to stop at the park
for the time being.</b> The guide suggested us to keep mum as our voice could
be irritating to animals. Unfortunately, sighting tigers did not happen that
day and we had to rush back to the resort as we were too hungry.</div>

After reaching the resort, we filled our hungry stomachs
with delicious food. The night spent with bonfires, folk music and sharing the
first day's experience. Staying in a camp with all the amenities and
surrounding greenery coupled with a homely feel relaxed us. </div>

Choosing Ranthambore as our wildlife destination from
various <b><a href="http://www.indiawildlifeinfo.com/tour-planner/wildlife-tours.html" target="_blank">India wildlife tour packages</a></b> brought reward to us as the next day, we spotted a
tiger. <b>The thrill was rising and we came to a standstill as soon as we felt
the presence of tiger around us!</b> While Jenny was concentrating on clicking
to capture tigers without disturbing them, I was closely observing his
activities. Roaming around majestically, the tiger seemed bit scary with his
mighty built. </div>
