I have always wanted to visit India. It looks like an interested country to visit. I am very curious about their culture and specially their religions. It seems that everyone believes in a different God, there are so many of them.
India is the birthplace of four of the world's major religions; namely Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism. Throughout India's history, religion has been an important part of the country's culture. Religious diversity and religious tolerance are both established in the country by the law and custom.
The Taj Mahal, this white marvel mausoleum, located in Agra, it appears to be a very interesting place to visit too.This was built in 1632 by Mughal emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his third wife, Mumtaz Mahal, who died in the birth of their 14th child. Today is recognized as the jewel of Musilm art in India and one of the universally admired masterpieces of the world's heritage.
I would love to visit Delhi, the capital and walk around to see its beautiful buildings. Also, go around the places where Gandhi, the leader of India's independence movement organized a boycott against British institutions in a peaceful form of civil disobedience. 

India has many, many interesting things, history, and places that you may need a lot of time to visit all. Maybe one day I visit this country.
