Introduction:
Nepal is a tiny Himalayan kingdom landlocked between China (Tibet) to the north and India to the south, west and East. It is about 880km long and 240km wide. It spans terrain from subtropical jungle to the icy Himalayas and contains eight of the ten highest mountains of the world. It is rich in scenic splendor and cultural treasures, hosting some of the best walking trails in the world. Nepal is a fairytale land of cultural complexities, colorful, friendly people, medieval villages and temples, shrines, palaces and ancient religions.
Delhi, Agra and Jaipur - they represent and unravel the mystique that is India. 
New Delhi, the elegant capital with its wide roads, sprawling gardens and stately buildings, stands on the site of seven historical cities built by the visionary rulers through the centuries. Agra, the capital of the glorious Mughal emperors, harbors the incomparable Taj Mahal, the exquisite marble monuments that attract millions of visitors every year. Jaipur is the enigmatic pink city of the Maharajas, the city of pomp and splendor, of colour and festivity, of a rich and regal past that continues into the present.
This is the golden triangle - a visit to which is essential to get a glimpse of India's rich past. Though the cities are a very different in character from each other, their histories have been interconnected, bringing about a similarity in culture, tradition and lifestyle.
Under the grand Mughal, the three cities were linked through political 
alliances and cultural interchange. Hindu and Muslim traditions influenced architecture, arts and crafts and the result was a unique synthesis, which was reflected, in the literary life and performing arts of the cities.
With the establishment of British India, these three centers were absorbed within the fold of the empire and their colorful histories took a new turn into the future. Located at a motorable distance from each other, these cities are easily accessible and are a must see for every tourist.
