y Soaring in glittering splendour, the Marble Rocks atBhedaghat rise to a hundred feet on either side of theNarmada. The serene loveliness of the scene is one of coolquiet, the sunlight sparkling on the marble-white pinnacles
and casting dappled shadows on the pellucid waters. Thesewhite rocks with views of black and dark green volcanicseams are truly majestic, and produce a magical effect onmoonlit nights.
y The holy river flows by tranquilly flanked by the toweringcliffs which reflect in it like a mirror the changing moods ofnature. A little distance away, it becomes turbulent as itplunges in a mighty water fall known as Dhuandhar.

y The documented history of Chanderi goes back to theearly 11th century and is a kaleidoscope of movementand activity prompted by its strategic location. On the
borders of Malwa and Bundelkhand, the towndominated the trade routes of Central India and wasproximate to the arterial route to the ancient ports ofGujarat as well as to Malwa, Mewar, Central India andthe Deccan. Consequently, Chanderi became animportant military outpost, prized by rulers withpower or ambition, and repeatedly experienced themight of men who moulded the destiny of Hindustan.

y Chitrakoot, 'the hill of many wonders', nestles peacefully inthe northern spurs of the Vindhyas, a place of tranquilforest glades and quiet rivers, and streams where calm andrepose are all pervading. This loveliest of Nature's gifts is
also hallowed ground, blessed by the gods and sanctifiedby the faith of pilgrims. For Chitrakoot's spiritual legacystretches back to legendary ages: it was in these deepforests that Rama and Sita spent eleven of their fourteen
years of exile; here that the great sage Atri and SatiAnusuya meditated; and here where the principal trinity ofthe Hindu pantheon, Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh, tooktheir incarnations.

y Steeped in the splendour of its past, the ancient capital ofGwalior has yet made a successful transition into a modernIndian city, vibrant and bustling. A multitude of reigningdynasties, of the great Rajput clans of the Pratiharas,Kacchwahas and Tomars have left indelible etchings of their rule
in this city of palaces, temples and monuments. Gwalior'stradition as a royal capital continued until the formation ofpresent day India, with the Scindias having their dynastic seathere. The magnificent mementoes of a glorious past have beenpreserved with care, giving Gwalior an appeal unique andtimeless.
y
This, then, is Gwalior : where a rich cultural tradition has beeninterwoven into the fabric of modern life. Where a princely pastlives on in great palaces and their museums. Where a multitudeof images merge and mix to present to the visitor a city ofenduring greatness

y In the temple architecture of India, the Khajurahocomplex remains unique. One thousand years ago,under the generous and artistic patronage of theChandela Rajput kings of Central India, 85 temples,
magnificent in form and richly carved, came up on onesite, near the village of Khajuraho. The amazinglyshort span of 100 years, from 950 AD - 1050 AD, sawthe completion of all the temples, in an inspired burstof creativity. Today, of the original 85, only 22 havesurvived the ravages of time; these remain as acollective paean to life, to joy and to creativity; to theultimate fusion of man with his creator.

y Orchha's grandeur has been captured in stone, frozen in time, arich legacy to the ages. In this medieval city, the hand of time hasrested lightly and the palaces and temples built by its Bundelarulers in the 16th and 17th centuries retain much of their pristineperfection.
y Orchha was founded in the 16th century by the Bundela Rajputchieftain, Rudra Pratap, who chose this stretch of land along theBetwa river as an ideal site for his capital. Of the succeedingrulers, the most notable was Raja Bir Singh Ju Deo who built theexquisite Jehangir Mahal, a tiered palace crowned by gracefulchhatris. From here the view of soaring temple spires and
cenotaphs is spectacular.y Complementing the noble proportions of their exteriors are
interiors which represent the finest flowering of the Bundelaschool of painting. In the Laxminarayan Temple and Raj Mahal,vibrant murals encompassing a variety of religious and secularthemes, bring the walls and ceilings to rich life.

y Shivpuri is steeped in the royal legacy of its past, whenit was the summer capital of the Scindia rulers ofGwalior. And earlier, its dense forests were the hunting
grounds of the Mughal emperors when great herds ofelephants were captured by emperor Akbar.
y Much later, it was the Tiger that roamed the woodedhills and many a magnificent beast was 'bagged' byroyal Shikaris. Today Shivpuri is a sanctuary for rarewildlife and avifauna. Its royal past has thus beentransformed into a vibrant, hopeful present.

y Modern Ujjain is situated on the banks of the river Shipra,regarded since times immemorial as sacred. The belief inthe sacredness of Shipra, has its origins in the ancientHindu mythological tale of churning of the Ocean by the
Gods and the Demons, with Vasuki, the serpent as therope. The ocean bed first yielded fourteen gems, thenLakshmi, the Goddess of wealth, and finally the covetedvessel of Nectar. Then began the wild scramble for
immortality with the demons chasing the Gods across theskies, and in the process, a few drops were spilt, and fell atHardwar, Nasik, Prayag, and Ujjayini. Hence the sanctity ofthe waters of the Shipra

y This colourful festival of the Bhils and Bhilalas, particularlyin the district of West Nimar and Jhabua, is actually in thenature of a mass svayamvara, a marriage market, usuallyheld on the various market days falling before the Holifestival in March. As the name of the festival indicates,
(bhag, to run), after choosing their partners, the youngpeople elope and are subsequently accepted as husbandand wife by society through predetermined customs. It isnot always that boys and girls intending to marry eachother meet in the festival for the first time. In a largenumber of cases the alliance is already made between thetwo, the festival providing the institutionalised frameworkfor announcing the alliance publically. The tradition is thatthe boy applies gulal, red powder, on the face of the girlwhom he selects as his wife. The girl, if willing, also appliesgulal on the boy's face. This may not happen immediately
but the boy may pursue her and succeed eventually.
