So it appears to foreign tourists!
India holds a certain sense of mystery for the world outside its borders. Read on to find how curious foreigners are about India and its ways or rather read on to find out how dumb and ignorant they are about our beautiful country. This has been taken from a tourism blog where people could post queries if they were planning on making a trip to India.
The answers are the actual responses by the website participants who demonstrate tolerance and excellent sense of humour.
