India is a unique country. Notwithstanding its numerous problems there are plenty of advantages of living in India.
1. It is a land of plentiful sunshine. Sunshine which is our primary source of energy is abundant here and most of us wake up to a cheerfully shining sun outside our windows. Imagine the days when the bleak and gloomy weather outside makes us feel depressed as well.
2. It has the most beautiful and magnificient beaches and hill stations. Being a peninsula itis surrounded on three sides by oceans and seas, the Indian ocean, the Bay of Bengal Andthe arabian sea cover the coastline of India. Due to this unique geography India has some of the most amazing beaches in the world and the advantage that one can bathe almost the whole year round. Puri beach has the most magnificient waves which are so huge sometimes to be almost like mini tsunami. The coastline covers a range of 7500km which is more than the distance from Kolkata to London.
3. India is straddled by the Himalayan mountain ranges, the longest, highest, most pictureesque mountain ranges in the world to the north. They act as a natural barrier to the cold winds flowing in from Siberia and Afghanistan. The highest peaks like Everest and Kanchanjunga are found here. The mountains cover a stretch of around 2000 km. The mountains are the birthplace of the most sacred rivers of India - Ganga, Yamuna , and Brahmaputra. Some of the most beautiful places in the world nestle in the hills and mountains like Kashmir, Shimla, Shillong, Darjeeling and Kulu.
4. Apart from seas and mountains there are some beautiful islands to visit here like Andaman and Lakshwadeep. There is also Thar desert in Rajasthan and The Sunderbans in Bengal both very distinct and unique features.
5. The people of India are also unique and varied. From the almost foreign fairness of people from Kashmir, there are dark skinned people of South India. Home to twenty different languages and 200 dialects, study of the culture and customs of India can turn up to be an anthropologist’s dream.
6. This is a place where you will never get bored as there are too many things to do and see than can be covered in a single lifetime.
