India, with its kaleidoscope of cultures, landscapes, and traditions, stands as a testament to the depth of human history and the myriad ways this country has evolved over time. No two dishes serve the same palette, more than 30 folk dances enchant the eyes, and more than 780 dialects delight your ears, illustrating the breathtaking diversity one finds in this country.
And yet, even after a lifetime of exploration, one might feel like they still haven't seen everything India has to offer. From the snow-capped peaks of the Himalayas to the sun-kissed beaches of Goa, from the bustling streets of Delhi to the tranquil backwaters of Kerala, every corner in this country offers a unique glimpse into its rich tapestry of heritage.
Kashmir
Famed 13-century Sufi poet Amir Khusrau once proclaimed in Farsi, “If there is a paradise on Earth, it is this.”
Nestled between the Himalayas and the Pir Panjal mountain range, Kashmir offers landscapes comparable to a mini Switzerland—the alpine climate, snowy winters, the evergreen trees. Picture-perfect valleys like Markha, Shyok, and Nubra stretch endlessly, while the tranquillity of Dal Lake and Nigeen Lake in Srinagar offers an escape from the hustle-bustle of the city. But it is not just the landscapes that draw tourists from all over India; Kashmir’s culinary scene is a vibrant mix of flavours—from the aromatic Kahwa to the lavish Rogan Josh—that entices every palate. Similarly, whether it is skiing in Gulmarg or immersing in the timeless beauty of Pahalgam, Kashmir promises an unforgettable journey.
