Naming from snow-capped peaks, rugged hills, and low-lying plains and so on to coastal lines, islands, etc. one can take in the diversity of India’s picturesque panoramas.
The Himalayas, which are the highest, youngest and still evolving mountain range in the world, are to the north of this country. It has plains, which are made fertile, by the world-famous rivers like the Ganges, the Brahmaputra, the Indus and many other important famous rivers. The Deccan plateau and some other smaller plateaus are said to be made up of rocks of very primitive origin. The coastal beauty of this country is remarkable and it is bestowed with several wonderful beaches that are famous places of tourist attractions as well.

It was not until the Mauryan Empire in the third century b.c.e. when most of India was brought together under one ruling dynasty. Before the Mauryans there was the ancient era known as the Indus Valley or Harappan civilization, and then the invasion and settlement of the Aryans along the Ganges River plain. The Ganges and Indus Rivers are known as the mother and father of India.
