2. Great Value Destination country
India is often thought of as a backpacker destination with grotty hotel rooms and dirt everywhere. Let me assure you that this definitely isn’t the reality. You can travel as cheaply or as lavishly as you want in India, and that’s definitely part of its appeal as a tourist destination. The luxury segment of the market offers some mesmerizing accommodations, such as authentic palace hotels. Alternatively you might prefer a quaint guesthouse or homestay. Options, such as these top budget hotels in India, abound. These days, even the backpacker hostels in India are modern, clean, and welcoming!
3. Warm Hospitality
There’s a saying in India, “Athithi Devo Bhava”, which means “the guest is God”. Indians consider it a huge honor to have guests in their home, and go out of their way to please them. There’s nothing like Indian hospitality. And, as a result of the growing popularity of stays in India, there are plenty of opportunities to experience it.
4. Broaden your thinking
India is place that everyone should visit once in their lives to get out of their comfort zones and get a different perspective on life. Every state/city has different culture to deal with. However, you’ll quickly come to appreciate what you have back home and how fortunate you really are. It will change your perception for the country.
5. Is it safe to travel in India
Unfortunately, India has received a lot of negative publicity recently in regards to women’s safety. However, the good news is that some parts of India are much more tourist friendly than others. In that regard, you should co-ordinate with the government approved travel agents and hotels if you are making online hotel bookings. Following guidelines from the travel agents and government will make your travel a hassle free.
7. Exploring Spirituality
India can be very inspiring and refreshing for the soul. Many people come to India to learn yoga, meditate, or spend time at an ashram. Another moving experience is to take part in an evening aarti (fire worship) along the Ganges river at either Rishikesh, Haridwar or Varanasi.
