    This book is for anyone who wants to know of the many holy sites that you can visit while traveling within India, how to reach them, and what is the history and significance of these most spiritual of sacred sites, temples, and festivals. It also provides a deeper understanding of the mysteries and spiritual traditions of India.

    — Explanations of holy places of Hindus, Buddhists, Sikhs, Jains, Parsis, and Muslims.
    — The spiritual benefits a person acquires by visiting them.
