INDIA - ''Magic of the North'' + Holi Festival

Welcome once again to the details of our unique, extended expedition to India. This meticulously prepared trip is focused on getting to know the selected part of India as best as possible. It is one of the most fascinating countries in the world. It is on every traveler's "must see" list. Those who have visited India do not describe it as a standard travel report. The experiences concern great reflection, a journey inside oneself or a change of point of view. We also experienced these emotions so we can confirm these experiences with a clear conscience. It is not easy to understand India but you can definitely love it. But it is worth trying - to immerse yourself in a colorful, oriental reality full of exotic (and specific) smells and tastes, dark eyes looking out from behind colorful scarves, mystical temples and grand royal palaces.

During our trip we will visit 3 Indian states: Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and Rajastan, focusing on their most beautiful cities and amazing monuments. We will start our adventure with the Indian subcontinent in its capital – Delhi. Together with Damascus, it is considered the oldest city in the world, with a history dating back 5 thousand years. This overcrowded and congested agglomeration can be amazing. The mix of cultures and religions means that it is impossible to get bored here – the diversity and contrasts are surprising to us Europeans. We will visit the most important places in the metropolis; from the oldest district to contemporary works of human hands. We will wander in the company of “holy cows” and even meeting an elephant is not uncommon here. From the capital of the country we will go to Mathura, which is located in the state of Uttar Pradesh. It is one of the holy Hindu cities. According to religion, it was here that Krishna was born, and this place is the destination of pilgrimages for his followers. We will also visit the Krishna Janmahstan complex to learn and understand the phenomenon of Hinduism. The next destination of our expedition will be the famous Agra. Rising above the Yamuna River Valley, it is one of the most important and beautiful Indian cities. It is here that one of the 7 wonders of the world is located - the Taj Mahal. But the city is much older, dating back to the turn of the 5th and 6th centuries. As many as 3 sites located in Agra have been included on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Leaving the state of Uttar Pradesh, we will go to the famous Rajasthan and the unique city of Jaipur. This is the capital of the state, which is called the "Pink City" and is considered the architectural pearl of India. In addition to the wonderful monuments, we will celebrate Holi here - one of the most beautiful Hindu holidays. Called the "Festival of Colors", it attracts many tourists, but it is the local tradition and the inhabitants of India who are the actors of this event. Holi can be compared to the European welcome to spring, which begins the period of abundance. During this time of the full moon, which falls in February or March, depending on the year, the residents celebrate by throwing bright powdered dyes at each other and pouring water. All this in an atmosphere of joy, dance and singing and burning fires. This magical time begins after sunrise and can last even a few days. We will be in the center of these events together with residents and visitors from all over the world. These moments will stay with us for a long time and the photos will be a unique souvenir of Holi. The next place on our journey will be Pushkar. It is the pearl and pride of Rajasthan. Known for its spirituality as a place of pilgrimage for both Hindus and Sikhs. Here we will find as many as 500 temples dedicated to various gods and the only Brahma Temple, attracting not only its faithful but also tourists who want to learn the secrets of this religion. This very hospitable city will welcome us with a smile and we will spend exceptional moments there.
