Welcome to India
Ancient India was famous for its luxurious and exuberant structures that hosted the great dynasties of its time. Looking at such splendour one could easily be mistaken for believing nothing has changed since the days of the Raj and unspeakable wealth. Indian royalty was such a luxurious way of life the British elite were envious of the grandeur and architectural beauty the Raj associated themselves with. Modern India has done its equal share in making the rich and the wealthy of our country feel like royalty. Grand palatial hotels, bedecked resplendently in treasure worthy trimmings pepper the finest locations.
