Central India Holidays
The multi-faceted nature of Indian culture and religion, landscapes and wildlife is typified by this predominately rural region which is dominated by the commercial centre of Mumbai – a pulsating and vibrant metropolis of grand colonial buildings and modern skyscrapers. The interior receives comparatively few visitors yet some of India’s most captivating religious and historic sites can be found here including the evocative Buddhist complex at Sanchi, the ancient remains at Mandu and the exquisite carvings and frescoes of the Ajanta and Ellora caves. The rugged heart of this region with its forested hills and rolling grassland shelters the national parks of Kanha, Bandhavgarh, Pench and Satpura – the latter of which can be explored on foot. Arguably the finest nature reserves in the Indian subcontinent, all four parks support a remarkable variety of animal and birdlife with tiger the undisputed draw. For return travellers looking for something a little different, remote and little-visited Chattisgarh is one of India’s true ‘off the beaten track’ destinations.
