 Indian
cuisine is famous the world over because of its distinguishing
taste and unique blend of regional spices and herbs. Indian
cuisine is strongly influenced by widespread and longstanding
vegetarianism within sections of India's majority Hindu
and Jain communities and popular non-vegetarian fares
as patented by the rich and varied offerings in North
and South India.
What is most integral to the Indian culture is the
distinctive taste of regional Indian cuisine and the
love of food universal amongst India's vast population
with the 'Atithi-Satkaar bhaav' (the indomitable hospitality
element extended to all visitors to the country) being
the same in every Indian community, region, and state
- despite the differences in style, spices and food
preparation!
What makes Indian cuisine so delightfully unique and
unforgettable is the great variety of foods, spices
and slow-cooking techniques each region has patented
for itself, which are also the reason why every part
of India gives an inimitable flavor and culinary memory
of its own - from fish to fowl, root vegetables to rich
gravies, rice and meat cooked in earthern pots to an
13-course meal served on banana leaves, we have it all!
And, that's not including the finger-licking, pocket-friendly
and ready-to-go variety of Indian Street-food!!...

 India,
the patchwork quilt of many different cultures.
India is a diverse country, a fact that is visibly prominent
in its people, culture and climate. From the eternal snows
of the Himalayas to the cultivated peninsula of the far
South, from the deserts of the West to the humid deltas
of the East, from the dry heat and cold of the Central
Plateau to the cool forest foothills of the North, Indian
lifestyles clearly glorify its geography.
There was a time when India was known as the land of
snake charmers and elephants (of course, with the ubiquitous
Maharaja atop them) but that age-old image has given
way (and about time, we say) to a more modern, traveler-friendly
and global India, keen to make forays into protecting
and preserving national and natural heritage.
With time, the people of India have come to identifying
themselves as the caretakers of a rich and varied heritage
in terms of the history, culture, civilizations and
literature present in our country besides the wealth
of natural cures, distinctive arts and crafts, cuisine,
medicine-knowledge and gift of inherent spirituality
that every Indian is accredited to be born with. Is
it then any wonder that this Land of the Romantic Taj,
the Royal Bengal Tiger, the Unforgiving Thar desert
and the many hundreds of Rajput Palaces it houses, Ancient
Art and Legends is also home to the Holy Ganges, Mosques
where Hindus and Muslims alike go to pray (Ajmer Sharif),
erotic statues dedicated solely to the pantheon of Hindu
Gods (Rock-cut temples at Ajanta-Ellora) and much, much
more than the discerning eye can see...

and Jainism. Travelmartindia.com also offers exclusive,
customized Spirituality Tours of India for all these
popular religious circuits in India, including special

bit extra.
The best way to experience India and its many forms
of religious belief is to plan a holiday during a major
Indian festival, which showcases cultural patterns and
traditions, including gifting, song, dance, merry-making,
festive cuisine, regional dressing and celebratory zeal
commonly associated with the same. Diwaali, Dusshera,
Durga Puja, Holi, Eid, Christmas, Parsi New Year, Lohri,
Onam, Pongal and Buddha Poornima are some major Indian
festivals...
