Everywhere one looks in India, time-hallowed tradition meets twenty-first century head-on in a dizzying cocktail of intense impressions. From the stunning beauty of the Taj Mahal, to the charm of local traditions of artistry and dance, to parades of painted elephants, India is a paradise for the curious, for the reverent, for the adventuresome. India's compelling appeal derives from her rich history, her incredibly diverse population, and the staggering array of artistic achievements that are visible throughout the land. Covering the entire Indian subcontinent from the Himalayas in the north through the central plains to the tropical southern coastal states of Goa, Tamil Nadu and Kerala, with their wondrous beaches and temples, this beautiful book fully encapsulates the complete India experience.
