About this title

Synopsis

This books is an extremely detailed and practical travel guide about India. It is written for travelers of all budgets. It includes information about temples, holy places, forts, palaces, beaches, hill stations, museums and wildlife parks. It has much practical information and will be of great value for both persons who have never been to India and to persons who have been to India several times (as hundred of people have told me).

It includes practical information on hotels, restaurants, transportation, how to communicate, health, history of India, what to bring, and much more. It also has an excellent easy to understand discription of the religious side of India. One tip in the book almost for certain will be worth the entire price of the book.
