This three-part report gives an insight into the exciting history of India.
Goa, the forgotten capital of the Indian overseas empire. A history of
conquest, the reign of terror, plague epidemics and the fall of Goa. Fatehpur
Sikri, seat of learning, tells the story of Akbar, once Emperor and Great
Mogul of India. Out of gratitude for the birth of his son he founded the city of
Fatehpur Sikri. Darjeeling, brilliant technical achievement, the building
of the narrow-gauge railway 'Darjeeling Himalaya Railway'. Ever since the
railway opened in 1881, the steam train has huffed and puffed its way from the
tropical plains of Bengal to the foothills of the Himalaya, climbing to a height
of over 2000 metres. |
