Begining with the 12 000 year old cave paintings of Bhimbetka, up to the bah'ai Hous of Worship, a blinding masterpiece of twentieh-century engineering and design, the wealth of creative genius, brilliant skill and endeavour of its people are evident in India's man-made wonders. Between the soaring medieval temples of the south and dramatically perched Buddhist monasteries of the North; the uniquely ornamented stepwells of the West and the grand Victoria Memorial, a symbol of British supremacy in the East, lie massive forts, fairy-tale palaces, tombs of Sultans, ruined ancient cities, statuesque cathedrals, and of course the resplendent Taj Mahal. \nAlong with these are the wonders bestowed on India by nature. In a country blessed with astoundingly diverse ecology and terrain, these range from te mighty Himalayan peaks of Nanda Devi and Kanchenjunga to the elephant inhabited lush tropical forests of periyar, and from the pristine-white island beaches of lkshadweep to the tiger-infested delta of two legandery rivers: the Ganga and the Brahmputra. \nShowcased in this book, in a feast of lavish colour photographs and lucid text, are 100 fabulous destination that evoke the wonder that is India.
