Culture



India has a very rich and diverse mix of culture and tradition, dominated by religious and spiritual themes. There is no single unified Indian culture, and it's probably the only country where people of so many different origins, religious beliefs, languages and ethnic backgrounds coexist. There are 4 main sub-cultures: West, North, East and South. Most of the ancient Indian culture is preserved in the South which is famous for its classical arts, such as Carnatic music and classical Indian dance.

The West part of India is highly industrialized and have rich heritage homes. Ahmedabad in Gujarat is famous for International Kite Flying Festival and Navratri ( A festival of dance that lasts for nine days). Old part of Ahmedabad attract many foreigners because of heritage houses.

The Northern part of India has a rich heritage of Hindustani Classical Music and vibrant dance forms. Art and theatre flourish amongst the bustling cities of the country, against the backdrop of the ever expanding western influences that flavour life in the large metropolises of India.

The East is popular for its many forms of folkdances and music. These art forms are enriched by a strong east asian influence.
