In India, the people count four season that are different from other places in the world, this seasons are:

India have a lot of cultural places in his country,like:
 bazaar Chatta Chowk ,Tumba de Humayun, Qutub Minar, Taj Mahal, gardens Mehtab Bagh, sacrade city of Varanasi,VishwanathTemple and Jaipur”.



These are some beautiful places that people can visit, it also are temples of different gods and goddesses, in India people adore some animal because in most of their religion Indians believe in reincarnation, so there are some temples full of animal like rats where people go there and pray to the god or goddess, this is very interesting for many tourist that visit India.



People usually wear very colorful and bright colors, beautiful prints in their clothes.
Women in India use the “saree or sari” it’s a typical garment, it can be made of cotton or silk, the long of this clothe can be 5 to 6 meters long and 1.20 meters wide, this garment is usually wear with an adjusted blouse that goes under it, but also many women use the “peikot”it’s a long skirt. The clothes are very simple in their confection but that gives the opportunity to add them the red color that is the most use, prints and jewelry.






Men usually wear as women colorful colors, and a lot of shine in their clothes that they call “salwar or dhoti”, it’s a rectangular piece of fabric it can be made of cotton or silk, the most common color in this clothe is white, it’s like a type of pants, with a simple but pretty shirt that can be of many colors.





Most of the people are very religious so they go to pray at the temples, there also a lot of markets in the street where you can find strange spices, that are not common for us but there are delicious. Well there are many things to do, because it’s a very  large country, it’s the second most populated before China, it’s very rich in culture but most of the people are very poor, there is a lot of hunger, but people is there is very kind.
