My favorite place to go on my holidays would be India; I am very attracted by its palaces’ architecture, food and some religious practice. Also I would like to feel as if I am travel to a very particular place totally different to country. I believe India is a place that have a colorful places and World Heritage sites.

First, I would like to spend the day in the capital city new Delhy I would like to visit the old city and go to a local market where I can fine India spaces, smell it and why not buy some and take to my country. Another reason for me to travel to India is their tasty food that is one of my favorites.  India is famous for its curies they mix the species and vegetables very delicious and the result are special flavors that I am fond of it because you cannot find in somewhere else.

I would like to talk a little bit of Indian food and why it is consider one of the best. In western counties food ingredients must be similar in one cooking dish but in India and average Indian dish have at least seven ingredients. Furthermore Indian cuisine use almost 200 ingredients of the 381 different ingredients we have in the world. Something in common between Mexican and Indian food is that both are very spicy. In Mexico, we also cook with dried and fresh chilies the same as Indian, although flavors are different.

Second, I would like to visit the Taj Mahal palace one of the most fantastic places in the world. I find Taj Mahal history very unique. I would love to see how it is inside, its long corridors, arches and the poems written in its walls. Also I want to walk through its big gardens with pools. Unlike my country Mexico architecture, Indian have big domes and flowers and special figures printed in all the walls. Mexican architecture is divided into two periods of time. Prehispanic period before Spaniards conquer Mexico and colonial period after Spaniards conquer Mexico. The Prehispanic architecture has nothing similar with Indian billings they were built with stones and they are pyramids. In contrast, when Spaniards conquer us they brought in their architecture some Arabic forms some similar to India architecture.

Third, I would like to go to a spiritual retreat in India if I had enough holidays. I really like practice yoga and for me would be the best thing to go to a place where real monks teach spiritual traditions in India. I would like to join a group of people that live and work together with the same goal of spiritual grown and self-realization. I thing India has the best places for this proposes where I could charge my spiritual energy away from distractions and materialistic life in the society. Furthermore, I like being around spiritual people and I think Indians are very lovely, peaceful and wise.

That’s why I would love to travel to India on my holidays.
