Madhya Pradesh retains some of the most pristine environment in the country. Many of its towns and villages are dependant on narrow single track roads for contact with the outside world – which makes it a wonderful place to visit if you are looking for something more than overtly touristy circuits. Accomodation, though not luxurious, is comfortable. Ancient temples, forts, palaces, this itinerary has it all.
Cover the city of Indore famous for its temples, old palaces and gardens, Ujjain one of the holiest and oldest cities of India, Maheshwar is a temple town of great antiquity, Mandu, the city of joy, and Omkareshwar which derives its name from the sacred Hindu symbol of Om. The massive, nearly 3-km fort at Gwalior is a formidable structure richly embellished with carvings. Within it shelter some outstanding temples and palaces. It reveal the finest aspects of Rajput architecture. Also visit Bhopal, the capital of Madhya Pradesh, known as the city of lakes.
Then tour moves on to Agra, home of the Taj Mahal as well as other jewels of a golden era, then Rajasthan which is replete with sprawling, stonefaced forts that, perched high on craggy hilltops, are a marvel of defensive building. Elaborate palaces and richly ornamented temples dot the towns and cities with an exuberance that celebrates the skilled hands of the craftsman.
