Explore the exotic destinations of North India

“India is an ephemeral reality that unravels another mystery just when you believe that now you know what the country is”, Tiny raised her eyebrows while reading out these lines from a travel article to her friends. She, along with her group of friends, had decided to visit some exotic locales of Northern India and were these days reading everything available about the country. “So does that bring our search for the right destinations to a full circle”, Lee stated while munching fish and chips. “Cant’  say”, stated Tiny giving an equally confused look.

“Hey! I have a solution to all your problems”, said Mike, who had just joined the conversation and was already widely travelled. “Why don’t you all just get in touch with Erco Travels and get a swift answer to all your queries. I have travelled once with them and found them to be extremely meticulous and well-informed”, he stated and on getting everyone’s concurrence shot an email to the Erco Travel agent.


“So here is the answer said a beaming Mike after half-an-hour” saying this he circulated the reply received. The email mentioned how India is such an incredible country, where one can get extensive and out-of the world experience of a life time. From celebrating the royal past to enjoying the sheer natural beauty, or exploring one’s inner self, few destinations in the world are as fascinating as India. It encompasses an astonishing range of tourist attractions, which are simply irresistible. Everything from the architecture to the incredible hospitality is superb in this land stated the email. It also listed some good North India destinations as given underneath:

What’s more? The city has a lot to satisfy the taste buds of all and sundry.
