Worldwide it is associated with spirituality instantly. Probably because India is a mosaic of religions: Hinduism, the most widespread, followed by Islam, Christianity, Sikhism and Buddhism. Few places religion affects both the traditions and way of life in India. Women tend to have a red dot on the forehead, they were married Muslim sees only the eyes, the Sikhs wear their turbans characteristic head and while for some cows are sacred animals to others are pigs. In this country, every place has its rites and prayers, which more than cults are philosophies of life. In India we live, eat, educate, thinks and dies by one's religion. If to be known as the land of spirituality you believe the first thing you will perceive there is an atmosphere of peace and meditation, it has to be noted that India is also the second most populous country and the most like the tower of Babel from the point of view of their tongue over 100 languages spoken.

Finally there are the big cities such as Bombay and Calcutta, full of history and cultural attractions. In India, nothing surprises, they say those who know her, meaning that there all expect. From watching an elephant crossing the road, cows walking in broad avenues with trees, people eating, sleeping and relieving themselves in the street, holy men, stripped of all clothing, called sadhus and snake charmers. Each of these peculiarities become eccentric daily in Asian destination.
