Mother Ganga - Rishikesh (2016). The Beatles studied yoga and meditation here, along the banks of Ganges, as it exits the Himalaya foothills. Cows, goats, and mischievous monkeys roam. Holy men ponder life, offering sage words to passerby. #incredibleindia #motherganga #rishikesh #gangesriver #travelwriter
Kochi Spice Market - India (2016). India is the motherland of spices, and Kochi is in the heart of spice country. I recognize cinnamon, cloves, ginger, turmeric, nutmeg, and star anise, all grown nearby. In antiquity, Kochi was known to Greeks, Romans, Jews, Syrians, Arabs, and Chinese. Indian spices thus became coveted around the world. #incredibleindia #indianspices #travelwriter #fortcochin #kochispices
