India is one of the most popular tourist destinations in world. India is a multi-religious and multi-culture country. There are many tourist places in India. I think, Rajasthan and Kerala is one of the most beautiful places. Rajasthan is known for its magnificent architecture, exotic culture, rich history and colourful festivals and Kerala is always known for the God’s own country. Kerala is also one of the richest states in India.

Hi Pawankumar2012, As india is a country of contrast, cultural traditions, language, dress, cuisine and lifestyle, which vary from state to state. This unity in diversity - seen in every day life makes it an attractive destination for travellers from all over the world. the mighty Himalayan peaks with unspoiled Valleys, thousands of miles of unspoiled beaches and the most intricately carved old and new temples, churches, gurudwaras, mosques, synagogues of many different faiths.There are many national parks, which abound in many kinds of wild life, in particular the Tigers, Leopard and the Asian lions. It has many hill stations, which still reveal the memories of the bygone days of the Raj. -snip-

More about India

India's civilization stretches back at least 5,000 years and, remarkably, has been maintained to an extremely high level in the 20th century. Whereas other Asian nations have seen the decline of traditional culture, Indians, particularly those away from the major cities, maintain their traditional way of life.
