YouTube Video Description

Today we are going to be exploring the fantastical region of India’s Golden Triangle. It's hard to think of a destination more overwhelming than India. Visit our website here: https://www.planetcruise.com/en/indian-ocean-cruises?utm_medium=PlanetYouTube&utm_source=planetcruiseweeklyyoutube&utm_campaign=IndiaGoldenTriangleplanetcruiseweekly14122017 With so many regions, so many cities and so many people, India confounds even the most sophisticated traveller’s, and it’s hard to know where to go first. Luckily, there's a tried-and-true answer: India's Golden Triangle. Comprising New Delhi, India's capital as well as the site of the Taj Mahal, Agra and the "Pink City" of Jaipur, the Golden Triangle packs some of the country's greatest hits into a manageable package. Its most often a 6 night land tour that is combined either at the start or end of a longer cruise that visits the area. India has been described as an assault on the senses -- rightfully so -- and an easy entry into the country can go a long way into making you feel good about your vacation choice. Despite all this visiting India's Golden Triangle is well worth it and will be one of the greatest travel; experiences of your life. The states that you'll visit on the trip have a heavy Islamic influence, with majestic monuments and superb artisan work. The Taj Mahal is one of the Seven Wonders of the World, but Delhi itself has three UNESCO World Heritage Sites and Jaipur has an astronomical observatory that will delight anyone remotely interested in the stars (astrology is still a bedrock of India's belief system). Even if your tour ensconces you in a luxury bubble of coaches and resorts, you'll still see sights that will shake you to your core -- and leave you wanting to learn more.
