    I visited a lot of India in 1983 but I would love to go to Dharamsala & have an audience with the Dalai Lama! Also to go to Sikkim & imagine how life was there as a summer resort in Colonial days.
    Then I would go South to Pondicherry, to enjoy the coast & the French architecture & spend a few days in Sri Aurobindo Ashram.
    Finally, I would go across country to Cochin, which I loved so much back then!
    What a magical tour that would be!
