A
Majestic journey through the northern states of India. Start with
a visit to the Golden Temple of Amritsar in Punjab, the holiest
site of the Sikh religion. Then to Dharamsala, the home of His
Holiness the Dalai Lama, the spiritual head of the Buddhists.
Here you can savour the atmosphere of Tibetan Buddhism. Continuing
to the alpine state of Himachal Pradesh, the Himalayas are the
backdrop for the most picturesque of Hindu temples. And finally,
after a spell in the lush Kullu Valley, visit Shimla, which still
offers a hint of the faded memories of the British Raj.
A spellbinding panorama and a combination difficult to resist.
