There are 23 official languages.
Many first time visitors to Incredible India want to explore North India and in particular the “Golden Triangle”. This includes the three most visited cities in the country's northwest corner, Delhi, Agra and Jaipur. This area has been dubbed "golden" because of the vast wealth of cultural and historic treasures to be found in these three cities.
In Delhi, explore Old Delhi with the historic Red Fort, Raj Ghat, and the mile-long Chandni Chowk bazaar. In New Delhi, drive down Rajpath- the wide boulevard that connects the Presidential Palace and India Gate. You will also visit Humayun’s Tomb, Qutab Minar, and the Birla Temple.
In Agra, learn about the Rule of the Mughals as you explore the Agra Fort and the Taj Mahal – both UNESCO World Heritage Sites. As you leave Agra you will stop enroute to wander the deserted city of Fatehpur Sikri. And the last city that makes up the Golden Triangle: Jaipur. Known as the “Pink City”, it offers the beautiful sites of the City Palace and the Hawa Mahal. Above the city, visit the beautiful Amber Fort.
