ADVENTURE TRAVELING-FOR CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEARADVENTURE TRAVELING-FOR CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR By : JASSI Whether or not we believe in Christmas, snow is an unfamiliar thrill for most of us.

RELIGIONS IN INDIA-FOR TRAVELERS By : Rajneesh India has seven major religions and many minor ones, six main ethnic groups, and countless holidays. Religion is central to Indian culture, and its practice can be seen in virtually every aspect of life in the country. Hinduism is the dominant faith of India, serving about 80 percent of the population. Ten percent worship Islam, and 5 percent are Sikhs and Christians; the rest (a good 45 million) are Buddhists, Jains, Bahai, and more. INDEPENDENCE OF INDIA By : Rajneesh The Rajs demise was partially a result of its remarkable success. It had gained control of the country by viewing it as a source of profit. Infrastructure had been developed, administration established, and an entire structure of governance erected. India had become a profitable venture, and the British were loath to allow the Indian population any power in a system that they viewed as their own accomplishment. The Indians didn’t appreciate this much, and as the 20th century dawned there were in HORSLEY HILLS OF INDIA By : Rajneesh Yes it’s in the state of Andhra Pradesh of India. In an earlier avatar when Horsley Hills was not the commercial hill station it is now, it used to be an undeveloped rustic hillock. According to local legend, a pious woman called Mallamma used to live on the top of the hill where she was protected and looked after by an elephant. Word soon got around and the place was rather simplistically dubbed Yenugu Mallamma Konda (hill). GHOST TOWN By : Rajneesh It’s a ghost town. But don’t panic in Detroit. Twenty years ago Detroit was the sixth biggest city in America. Today it’s the umpteenth. Everybody left in the 1980s. So why would you go there? In transit; a lot more people pass through Detroit airport (35 million) than live in the city (1million). And Northwest Airlines’ new S1.2 billion ‘World Gateway’ hub means that thousands more will catch a connection here. Detroit is bizarrely proud of being “about a 90 minute flight from 60 percent of th Celebrity Cruises for All-Inclusive Vacations - Cruise Vacation By : INDERMOHAN Why Take a Cruise Vacation?

Charlock’s city is notorious for its humid summers but winters are miraculously mild. Welcome to the heritage walks of Calcutta ECOTOURISM- Now in India… By : Rajneesh In India, ecotourism is still mostly hype and inaction. The National Tourism Policy of 2002 is quite ambitious about eco-tourism. Himachal Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh also have ecotourism policies. But these are plans in government files. Outside the red-taped files, most of India’s forests are battlefields, with wildlifers/ conservationists on one side and forest-dwelling communities on the other. Ecotourism Knowledge By : Rajneesh There are two basic requirements for ecotourism: 1) a basic understanding of ecological issues and 2) a conscience. Let’s get one thing clear: there is a lot of emphasis in definition. Ecotourism is a novel concept, an effort to make the global-rambler politically correct and free of guilt. No, Traveling to Johannesburg for the World Summit on Sustainable Development doesn’t constitute ecotourism. Neither does merely ogling at tigers from the safely of an elephant’s back.
