Welcome to India
India
is an incredible fusion of past and present, boasting a history
dating back 5,000 years. Its present-day population of more than
a billion people represents more religions, languages, and cultures
than any other country in the world. India's great diversity is
reflected in its vast geography as well; this subcontinent is
home to every imaginable climate. Modern India presents a rich
mixture of custom and culture, art and architecture, music and
dance that is simply unforgettable.
