Bro i live in Surat , these places arent even close to what a foreign tourist would like to visit in India . Whats there to see in diamond brochere its just a building , statue of unity is getting better day by day , rann of kutch is good but all the other places wont be interesting for a foreign tourist .

[@AO-xd2ml]

@@divyam_rathi I made the list especially with foreigners in mind, because my foreign family prefers these places. We are mixed nationalities and ethnicities. These places are connected to ancient/historic India, contemporary India and to the upcoming new India. It's a great way to understand India. The Surat Diamond Bourse is where the majority of the world's diamonds are processed and that is very interesting to foreign tourists, because they LOVE diamonds. Add to that that it is the largest office building in the world and you have a winner! All they need is to surround this area with diamond retailers where you can walk in and buy diamond rings and necklaces! It could become a wedding destination!

[@AO-xd2ml]

@@divyam_rathi This is from a foreign perspective. Those places were picked out because they are a combination of unique attractions and view getters. Fascinating temple towns and modern India, both draw viewer attention. Surat Diamond Bourse is the latter.

HI! Helly ... Curd is your friend, have it after a meal, with a meal, plain or with sugar added or even salt whichever way you like & atleast once or twice a day, it will ease your stomch and you'll avoid getting ill. Don't drink water over curd (as water at the time will cause sore throat). Also take less amount of curd during winters and if you feel thirsty choose tea or coffee instead of water or cold drink.

[@rahiakela4903]

Listen don't go to ayodhya right now! That is going to be the biggest event and prime minister has already told to not come there as it can be very crowded and dangerous. Don't postpone meal and then eat a lot, i did the same mistake in hrishikesh and started feeling ill. Avoid very spicy food you can't handle it. Tell the waiter to make it less spicy with less masala. Also people are nice as you know but there is always 2-3 people in big population who try to take advantage so beware of them rest i know you will have yoga class and you will be busy there. If you go above hrishikesh i mean more upwards there's our holy pilgrimage kedarnath, badrinath but it's not for beginners. We have a quote in india that "india is not for beginners" but you are overpowering that. The best part is you will love india more when you return back to your country😂

*Never run to cross road PLEASE If you simply walk, thats the safest way, look at traffic, walk with even pace, this way everyone aware of each other pace, and can easily move around each other* If you are a driver, you can easily avoid a slow and even paced object, but if objects are running across, like a dog, which might suddenly stop or move backwards, giving you no time to adjust, can in all likely hood cause accident and panic in either of the party. Same things true for humans as is for dog example, as its dealing with same panic and unreliable conditions. *I understand for a western person, calmly walking across may seem counter intuitive, than running, but its the safest way to cross, without either the pedestrian or driver panicking/undecided at any movement. While walking to cross road, can also show palm of your hand at incoming traffic for additional security, to better maintain distance*

Hrishikesh was not as much perturbed by foreign invaders as the cities down the plains. Therefore, it has a unique unadulterated spiritual tradition that has remained largely intact for ages. While India is mostly safe and most people are well-behaved, solo travel of a foreigner that too a woman can't be strongly recommended (did you read about the motorbike-riding couple passing through Jharkhand?). BTW, watched just a few minutes--the way you handled your purse and money while buying water--just one word "Caution".
