Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikivoyage or other free sources online. The northern plains are one of India s most intense and unmissable regions, home to the iconic sights of the Taj Mahal at Agra and the ghats of Varanasi. Between the discipline of Punjab and Haryana s proud Sikhs and the apparent lawlessness of much of Bihar lies Uttar Pradesh, held by many to be the heartland of India its soul enshrined in the incomparable Taj Mahal at Agra and its religious sentiments laid bare on the burning ghats of Varanasi. The principal natural feature of the northern plains worshipped as a nur-turing Mother Goddess by Hindus is the river revered as Ma Ganga , which gushes out of the Himalayan foothills at Rishikesh and wends southeast towards its confluence with the region s other main artery, the Jamuna, at Allahabad. This book offers information on Plains of India and its most notable places.
