It is no wonder that explorers and traders told high tales about India upon their return, so beautiful.

After some googling it seems like quite a lot of places mentioned in this thread still look great. Makes me want to visit India even more.

Quote:

An oil painting which depicts the royal procession at the Delhi Durbar in 1903. At the head is the British Viceroy of India, Lord Curzon with his wife, followed by the Duke and Duchess of Connaught, and then the rulers of Hyderabad and Mysore princely states together. This durbar, or royal court, was held in honor of Edward VII's ascent to the British throne. Edward could not attend and sent his brother, the Duke of Connaught, to represent him.
