India is one of the oldest civilizations in the world with a kaleidoscopic variety of destinations and rich cultural heritage. It has achieved all-round socio-economic progress during the last 70 years of its independence. The seventh largest country in the world, India stands apart from the rest of Asia, marked off by mountains and the sea which give it a distinct geographical entity. Bounded by the Great Himalayas in the north, it stretches southwards and tapers off into the Indian Ocean at the Tropic of Cancer, flanked by the Bay of Bengal on the east and the Arabian Sea on the west.
