Because India is so big, every
region knows its own culture and nature. In the rich south, the population
is predominantly Christian, while in the poor north the population is Hindu,
Islamic and Buddhist. The Christian and tropical province of Kerala is
surrounded by water and the population lives off fishing.
A trip on a traditional boat through the backwaters is definitely
worth it. You sail past traditional villages and spice plantations, where you
learn how peppercorns, cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg and mace grow.

The provincial
capital of Madurai in neighboring Tamil Nadu offers a completely different
sight: this Hindu
pilgrimage town houses one of the largest temple complexes in India and
is mystical with a capital 'M'
All the way to the north, at the
border with Pakistan, in the city of Amritsar, you can discover the pilgrimage
site of the Sikhs, which is characterized by a real golden palace in the middle
of the city. The chaos of the dusty streets around it is in stark contrast to
the oasis of peace and cleanliness within the walls of the holy palace. The
city could be a model for a 1001-night fairytale.

The famous yoga resort Rishikesh
in the mountains, where the holy river Ganges rises, is a place of pilgrimage
for spirituality seekers. The Beatles were also looking for relief here, so
that it has since been flooded with Western tourists. Do not think of the
tourist with a camera on the belly, but expect harems and dreads.

Finally, the holy and ancient
Varanasi should not be missing from your visit to India. The streets
are so narrow that one cow already blocks them when they decide to stop there.
But here is the spiritual heart of Mother India in the form of thousands of
pilgrims who express their respect to the Ganges. It should not be missed on your itinerary.
