There is ample scientific research to suggest that it is highly beneficial for our physical, mental and emotional health. Most people tend to be happier when they are traveling and do not have to worry about any official or domestic work. During my 30 years of service in the Indian Air Force, I got the opportunity to travel to many destinations across the country on posting. My wife, Prabha, and I became very fond of travel and experienced new horizons, which are continuing even after retirement. In fact, we became more active travel-wise as we had plenty of time and money; courtesy of the handsome pension provided by the Government and the children well settled abroad. Traveling has been made very easy as the travel agencies make elaborate arrangements for stay and well-planned sightseeing agenda. We made full use of it and visited a few countries of our choice. I am quite fond of writing and decided to reflect on our travel experiences in the form of travelogues which are included in this book. I sincerely hope that the readers will find these interesting.

Download or read book Cultural Landscapes of India written by Amita Sinha and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2020-11-10 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people view cultural heritage sites as static places, frozen in time. In Cultural Landscapes in India, Amita Sinha subverts the idea of heritage as static and examines the ways that landscapes influence culture and that culture influences landscapes. The book centers around imagining, enacting, and reclaiming landscapes as subjects and settings of living cultural heritage. Drawing on case studies from different regions of India, Sinha offers new interpretations of links between land and culture using different ways of seeing—transcendental, romantic, and utilitarian. The idea of cultural landscape can be seen in ancient practices such as circumambulation and immersion in bodies of water that sustain engagement with natural elements. Pilgrim towns, medieval forts, religious sites, and contemporary memorial parks are sites of memory where myth and history converge. Engaging with these spaces allows us to reconstruct collective memory and reclaim not only historic landscapes, but ways of seeing, making, and remembering. Cultural Landscapes in India makes the case for reclaiming iconic landscapes and rethinking conventional approaches to conservation that take into consideration performative landscape as heritage.
