It’s hard to grasp just how beautiful India actually is, unless you have been lucky enough to visit or – even luckier – if you actually live there. These photos prove it though.
From Himalayan peaks to Indian Ocean coastline, India is an exhilarating country where on every corner is bursting full of colour and character. Ancient mosques, the Taj Mahal, rich spices and cosmopolitan cities will very quickly win you over with their charm.
