Delhi<br />
Delhi is a city that bridges two different worlds.<br />
Old Delhi, once <strong>the</strong> capital <strong>of</strong> Islamic India, is a<br />
labyrinth <strong>of</strong> narrow lanes lined with crumbling<br />
havelis and formidable mosques. In contrast, <strong>the</strong><br />
imperial city <strong>of</strong> New Delhi created by <strong>the</strong> British<br />
Raj is composed <strong>of</strong> spacious, tree-lined avenues<br />
and imposing government buildings. The city's<br />
importance lies not just in its past glory as <strong>the</strong><br />
seat <strong>of</strong> empires and magnificent monuments, but<br />
also in <strong>the</strong> rich and diverse cultures.<br />

Ahmedabad<br />
Ahmedabad, India is <strong>the</strong> largest city in <strong>the</strong> state <strong>of</strong> Gujarat.<br />
Ahmedabad enjoys a thriving cultural tradition, being <strong>the</strong><br />
centre <strong>of</strong> Gujarati cultural activities and diverse traditions <strong>of</strong><br />
different ethnic and religious communities. The city <strong>of</strong><br />
Ahmedabad is today one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> India's most important seats<br />
<strong>of</strong> learning. It's well known both for <strong>the</strong> sheer number <strong>of</strong><br />
institutions that are located here and <strong>the</strong> high quality <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
education that <strong>the</strong>y dispense.<br />
Vadodara<br />
The people <strong>of</strong> Baroda Or Vadodara as it is now known like<br />
to tell visitors that <strong>the</strong>ir city is a ‘Sanskari Nagari’, that<br />
is, a ‘cultured city’. By and large, <strong>the</strong> visitors agree. The<br />
city does indeed have rich cultural traditions. And today’s<br />
Barodians have quite a full and hectic cultural life throughout<br />
<strong>the</strong> year.<br />
The outstanding trait about Baroda’s cultural life is that it<br />
is remarkably cosmopolitan. And while <strong>the</strong>re are hundreds<br />
<strong>of</strong> different identities, everyone participates in all activities.<br />
So, <strong>the</strong> culture <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> city is not just history or heritage; it is<br />
dynamic, ever-changing and alive.<br />
7
Goa<br />
Nowhere else in India will you find <strong>the</strong> laid-back languidness<br />
<strong>of</strong> a Goan lunchtime, <strong>the</strong> easy charms <strong>of</strong> its people or <strong>the</strong><br />
soothing serenity <strong>of</strong> a day on its beaches. Here in Goa, a herd<br />
<strong>of</strong> water buffalo will greet you at breakfast; a lily-covered lake<br />
might provide <strong>the</strong> scenery for your morning walk; a sea eagle<br />
will be your afternoon companion along a deserted stretch <strong>of</strong><br />
pristine beach; a gorgeously spice-laden vindalho (vindaloo)<br />
might make your evening repast and a fiery glass <strong>of</strong> cashewpalm<br />
feni liquor your bedtime tonic<br />
But <strong>the</strong>re's far more to discover here than <strong>the</strong> exquisite<br />
pleasure <strong>of</strong> warm sand between your toes. Pep up your stay<br />
with a wander around a vanilla-scented spice plantation, stroll<br />
<strong>the</strong> bird-filled banks <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> state's gentle rivers, poke around<br />
centuries-old ca<strong>the</strong>drals, and venture out to white-water<br />
waterfalls.<br />
Mumbai<br />
Mumbai (previously known as Bombay) is<br />
<strong>the</strong> biggest metropolis <strong>of</strong> India. A city that<br />
is full <strong>of</strong> life and is also known for its<br />
tourists places, commercial hubs and<br />
government bodies. It is also known as <strong>the</strong><br />
financial capital <strong>of</strong> India. The city is located<br />
on <strong>the</strong> western part <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> India and is <strong>the</strong><br />
capital <strong>of</strong> Maharashtra.<br />
