In North India the people are everywhere, the heat is booming, and the cow is more sacred then anything. The first place I will start is in Varanasi where the most sacred river in Hinduism (the Ganges) is. To the people of Hindu, the Ganges is so sacred that when people die they are thrown into it. People come from everywhere to bathe and pray in the Ganges so that the god Shiva is pleased. Next, we come to the Taj Mahal, a giant monument that was built for the Shah’s wife when she died. The 20,000 people that built it began in 1631 to 1648 on the beautiful example of Mughal architecture. Now to look at the Hinduism ceremonies. There is the celebrations of Krishna’s birth 3,500 years ago. Also there is the holy book of Hindu, called the Gita. Now we come to the last stop at Dehli, new and old. The New Dehli is a big place ( 3rd biggest in India) with lots of people and hotels. But, Old Dehli was under Muslim control.
