MADHYA PRADESH TRAVEL GUIDE
Madhya
Pradesh is called the 'heart of India', not only because of its location in
the centre of the country, but also because, it has been home to the cultural
heritage of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Islam. Innumerable monuments, exquisitely
carved temples, forts and palaces are peppered all over the state - glorious
reminders of emperors and kings, warriors and builders, poets and musicians,
saints and philosophers.
The natural beauty of the state is equally varied. Consisting largely of a plateau,
the state has everything - awesome mountain ranges, meandering rivers, and miles
and miles of dense forests. The rich folk culture and tribal traditions of this
fascinating state, are manifested in the umpteen exuberant festivities, and
Statue of Heritage Jhansi, Gwaliorfairs of its colourful people.
One of the best parts about Madhya Pradesh is its accessibility. Bordered by
seven states, it is equally close to major tourist destinations in the north,
south, east and west. Whether you are in Delhi, Mumbai (Bombay), Chennai (Madras)
or Calcutta, you're never very far from Madhya Pradesh.
