A Colourful Collection on Hindu Pilgrimages

Jambu Dweep, of which India is a part, is also known as Aaryavart, the primitive land of the Aryans. It is protected by natural borders - the Hindukush Mountain Range in the west, the Arakan Range in the east, the gigantic peaks of the Himalaya in the north, and in the south by the Indian Ocean, the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal. This region has been significant as a Devbhumi (land of the Gods) and a world-gum. This is owing to the fact that not only did the Sanatan Dharm (Hindu religion) originate from here but the world's most ancient philosophical and religious views took birth and flourished here. Besides, foreign cultures also entered this land and bloomed along with the local culture. Although this created diversities, but the oneness of its soul remained intact.
