Fotoboek Lonely Planet: India Essential Encounters | Lonely Planet

650+ colour photographs, 44 destinations, 23+ years in the making

India is one of the most exotic, diverse, colourful, exciting, challenging, welcoming and beautiful countries on the planet, and consequently has been capturing the imagination of travellers for centuries

In India: essential encounters, internationally renowned photographerRichard I’Anson presents more than 650 colour photographs, featuring 44 of India’s most captivating destinations, in a stunning photographic essay that encompasses the entire country and took over 23 years to complete. Each ‘encounter’ is concisely introduced with evocative and informative text by acclaimed travel writer Sarina Singh.

Since his first visit in 1986, Richard I’Anson has returned to India more than 30 times. His vivid images faithfully capture this truly remarkable destination, taking the reader on an epic journey that reveals and celebrates all that India has to offer. Throughout these pages Richard brings to life sacred sites, grand and ancient monuments, panoramic mountain landscapes, palm-fringed beaches and waterways, and shows close encounters with India’s famous wildlife. But most compellingly, he captures the colour and infinite variety of the crowded bazaars, frenetic festivals and ethnically diverse people that for most visitors provide the warmth, mystery and fascination of India.
