Accepted Answer

For those of you with flights to India, one of the greatest joys will be discovering India’s rich food heritage. There’s something for absolutely everyone, young or old, vegan or meat eaters. The most defining feature of food in India is its impressive use of spices, and mixes often have at least five but often 10 or more different spices in one dish. Each region has its own cuisine as well, influenced by geography, culture and religion. In the North of India, you tend to find rich curries and thick sauces, often eaten with yogurts and baked breads. Dishes made in clay ovens feature heavily, such as chana masala or chicken tandoori. In the South, dishes are frequently made with coconut milk, and feature flavours like lemongrass, local fruits and curry leaves. Typically, they’re eaten with rice or lentils, or as stews. In Kerala, typical street food includes banana fritters or sweet dumplings. In Gujarat, you’ll find lots of vegetarian dishes and seafood. It’s a coastal city, but also has a large following in Jainism, a religion that promotes non-violence.

It’s made of white marble with inlays of diamonds, lapis, jade and pearl, amongst other stones. It’s best seen at dawn or dusk. The holy Hindu city of Varanasi is another major attraction. It dates back to the 8th century and is one of the oldest lived in cities in the world, on the banks of the Ganges river. The city has lots of temples to visit, the most famous being the Kashi Vishwanath Temple. The Ganges itself is considered a holy place, and has numerous ghats, or stairways leading down to the river to allow people to bathe before praying. The Golden Temple of Amritsar is the holiest site for Sikhs, but it also attracts Hindus and people of other religions. It’s renowned for its beautiful gold decoration and floral and animal motifs.
