Wanderlust: The Beauty of India
The beauty of India can be seen in the architecture, the traditions, the culture, and the people of India. Movies like Marigold, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, Eat Pray Love, Slumdog Millionaire, and The Darjeeling Limited provide outsiders like me with a glimpse of the reality and the beauty of India.
