What types of tourism can you practise in India?


"Home to the Indus Valley civilization and a region of historic trade routes and vast empires, the Indian subcontinent was identified with its commercial and cultural wealth for much of its long history. Four major world religions, Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism originated here, while Islam, Christianity, Judaism and Zoroastrianism arrived in the first millennium CE and shaped the region's variegated culture. "

As you can see for these photographs, India is a wonderful country which offers a wide range of activities for tourists. If you have travelled to this country, please tell us about it.
If you haven't, imagine all the activities you could do there, the different types of tourism you could practise and tell us about it.
