Indecency guide for tourists to India | |
Do not hug or kiss in public - even when meeting at stations and airports - and do not smoke or consume alcohol publicly either.
These are some of the guidelines being given to tourists visiting a popular part of India's north-western Rajasthan state to ensure they can respect local culture. The guidelines come after a number of unfortunate cultural faux pas, including an Israeli couple kissing at their Hindu wedding ceremony and a Finnish woman walking naked down the streets of Pushkar. Somehow that is not the impression I came across with when watching Indian movies! | |
