When I told my friends I just returned from India, the first response most of them gave me was 'What? Was it really Hot there?' I believe that Singaporeans have this misconception of India. First, it actually snows there! and the scenic places are really comparable to the 7 wonders. Delhi - the capital of India has unlimited attractions on its own. 17th century Shahjahanabad (old Delhi) which includes the Lal Qila(Red Fort), the Jama Masjid, India's Largest mosque, Digambara Jain
temple
.New Delhi is like a historical site where you can visit India gate, built in memory of the soldiers who died in WW1.The national museum is also a tourist attraction you should take note of.
I would rather give Fatehpur Sikri a miss and spend my day in Jaipur! I loved City Palace and Maharaja Sawai Man Singh II museum. Jantar Mantar observatory and Hawa Mahal(palace of wind) ahve really cool latticed-stone screened windows, behind which ladies of the palace could survey the city without being seen from the outside. Amber Fort is a major mountain fortress-palace that was built over a period of TWO centuries!

Fatehpur is a really spectacular place to visit too. with sandstone arches, courtyards, and buildings that were inhabited since 1585. For adventurers and people with a brave heart, head there for a feel of a GHOST TOWN.

I travelled to india a few months back and it is certainly a place for chilling. Just a few miles from the city of Malvan is Takarli Beach, a stretch of soft white sand edged by the Arabian Sea. The waters there are crystal clear! You can also take a boat up north on the Takarli Creek. You may even be lucky enough to see dolphins there!

Mumbai, once known as Bombay is India's most cosmopolitan city! you should definitely pay that place a visit if you in for awesome restaurants, topflight hotels and a wonderful nightlife. you could go to the Gateway of India, the Taj Mahal Hotel for sightseeing. i think that mumbai is the best place to shop in india! Bhuleshwar Wholesale Flower Market and Chor Bazaar (Thieves' Market) abounds in genuine and fake antiques. Do make a trip down to Crawford Market for fresh produce!

Recently, I have been to Shanghai and I discovered this really awesome place where they sell really cheap and reasonably good quality goods. I highly recommend this street known as Qi Pu Lu.
