Rajasthan, India Photography Holiday

Highlights

• Even the most traveled are underprepared for that breath-stealing moment its gates are traversed and this magnificent world wonder comes into focus. Surely the most beautiful building on the planet.
• Spectacular dusk fire ceremony performed by priests on the banks of the holy river, before myriad small candles are placed on a flower raft and floated down the Ganges.
• Varanasi is a veritable paradise for pilgrims, who throng the ghats of the Ganges for spiritual rewards like deliverance from sin and attainment of nirvana. A truly incredible spectacle.
• Pushkar Camel Fair is one of India’s most highly-rated travel experiences, a spectacle on an epic scale, an opportunity to witness the color, spectacle and carnival of one of the last great traditional meals.
