INDIAN
SUBCONTINENT

Icon

Kaleidoscope of colour

The Indian subcontinent is known for its deep-rooted cultural traditions, mouth-watering cuisine and vibrant festivals. For centuries, India has enticed merchants and mercenaries to its mystical lands with the promise of untold riches and when it comes to opulent splendour, no one puts on a better show – think bejewelled palaces, princely forts and tales of valour. In stark contrast the hidden mountain kingdom of Bhutan represents a world where monasteries teeter on lonely mountain tops and happiness is a measure of wealth, while Sri Lanka retains its title of ‘jewel of the Indian Subcontinent’ with its tropical beaches and cool tea plantations. Across the continent, wildlife abounds. The birding is outstanding and the shimmering forests harbour lions, leopards and tigers.
