The August issue explores the rich treasure trove of stories and experiences that is India. We present unique experiences from each of the 29 states and seven Union Territories, while binding them all together with a culinary journey that traverses plates and palates. The cover is fittingly grand, bringing together an emerging Bollywood actress and a resurrected Rajasthan fortress. We also take you on some memorable wildlife expeditions—from escaping ravenous lions and charging African elephants in Zambia, to witnessing the gentle grace of wild orangutans in Sumatra, and donning the citizen scientist’s coat in Peru. A flip issue on Andhra Pradesh is sure to inspire your domestic travel plans.
