National Geographic Traveller India Magazine - August 2019

In this issue

NGTI's August edition is an ode to the Great Outdoors. This issue is a testament to how faraway mountains, hidden islands, sweeping canyons continue to draw adventure enthusiasts from far and wide. Drink the magic blues of Fiji, or shadow penguins in New Zealand. Ski down egg-white slopes in Lake Tahoe or retrace a 10-day road trip in fantastical Iceland, you will find that the outdoors will surprise you. Also in the magazine: a love affair with art in Paris.
