  • Slowly Down the Ganges March 6 – 19, 2018
    Slowly Down the Ganges March 6 – 19, 2018 OVERVIEW The name Ganges conjures notions of India’s exoticism and mystery. Considered a living goddess in the Hindu religion, the Ganges is also the daily lifeblood that provides food, water, and transportation to millions who live along its banks. While small boats have plied the Ganges for millennia, new technologies and improvements to the river’s navigation mean it is now also possible to travel the length of this extraordinary river in considerable comfort. We have exclusively chartered the RV Bengal Ganga for this very special voyage. Based on a traditional 19th century British design, our ship blends beautifully with the timeless landscape. Over eight leisurely days and 650 kilometres, we will experience the vibrant, complex tapestry of diverse architectural expressions, historical narratives, religious beliefs, and fascinating cultural traditions that thrive along the banks of the Ganges. Daily presentations by our expert study leaders will add to our understanding of the soul of Indian civilization. We begin our journey in colourful Varanasi for a first look at the Ganges at one of its holiest places. And then by ship we explore the ancient Bengali temples, splendid garden-tombs, and vestiges of India’s rich colonial past and experience the enduring rituals of daily life along ‘Mother Ganga’. Our river journey concludes in Kolkatta (formerly Calcutta) to view the poignant reminders of past glories of the Raj. Conclude your trip with an immersion into the lush tropical landscapes of Tamil Nadu to visit grand temples, testaments to the great cultural opulence left behind by vanished ancient dynasties and take in the French colonial vibe of Pondicherry.

  • Stories of Bengal Itinerary
    Bengal was the hotbed of India’s independence movement but it’s place in the annals of history was established long before the British came to India. There was a time when Bengal (undivided) contributed to 12% of the worlds GDP. Her soil produced yards of silk, muslin, jute, tea & spice and traders from across the world sailed to her shores. Over the centuries, Bengal’s rich history, heritage & architecture, vibrant festivals and celebrations, and of course the delicious cuisines, have made it a hub of colour and creativity. In addition, it has been an intellectual hub for many visionaries from poets, artists, film-makers, scientists, academicians and thinkers. On this journey, we will experience the regal splendour of Bengal and experience her stories through rich art & architecture, incredible textiles, delectable cuisine and much more as we weave our way from Kolkatta to Murshidabad, Shantiniketan and Bishnupur. I T I N E R A R Y Day 1- 7 March (Sun): Kolkatta Arrival (D) Arrival in Kolkatta. On arrival, the transfer to the airport will be arranged for you.

Bare Bones is Ayesha Sultana’s solo, bringing together an intensely personal yet acutely revealing body of work, that deals with the body and stillness, its relationship with space and movement, breaking down the act of painting to express an intimate moment, where physical and emotional limitations are stretched, tested and broken.

The planet's temperature is rising. The trend is clear and unmistakable. Globally, the average surface temperature has increased more than one degree Fahrenheit since the late 1800s. Most of that increase has occurred over just the past three decades. We are the cause. We are overloading our atmosphere with carbon dioxide, which traps heat and steadily drives up the planet’s temperature. All these carbons come from the fossil fuels —coal, natural gas, and oil—plus the loss of tree. China is the highest contributor (27%) for carbon emission followed by USA(17%),Russia(5%) and India(5%). Kyoto Protocol, ia an international treaty, held at Kyoto city Japan in December,1997 which aimed to reduce the emission of gases that contribute to global warning. Inforce since 2005, the protocol called for reducing the emission of six greenhouse gases in 41 countries plus the European Union during the “commitment period” 2008-12. It was widely hailed as the most significant environment treaty ever negotiated.

  • Watchtime India Takes You to Some Historical Observatories and Clock Towers Across the Country
    WHERE TIME STANDS, STILL WatchTime India takes you to some historical observatories and clock towers across the country. BY AISHWARYA SATI The Rajabai Clock Tower in Mumbai illuminated at night. Photo: Amey Mansabdar HISTORY India’s Horological Heritage ime is really the only capital that any human being has, and the only thing he can’t afford to lose. Thomas Alva Edison Time is intangible. And, like the tasteless, colourless Adam’s ale, its value is immeasurable. Man’sT quest to measure time can be traced back to the primitive era, when hunter-gatherers used positions of celes- tial bodies for timekeeping. The Sun, for instance, was used for counting the days and years, and the Moon for keeping track of months. Since then, it has taken centuries of diligence and inno- vation to achieve accuracy in timekeeping. The Egyptians Delhi’s Jantar Mantar probably were the first to create a 24-hour day.
