Is India still a land of snake charmers?
This goes hand in hand with the images of maharajas and elephants. While some tourist spots may still play on this image and entertain visitors with elephant rides and snake charmers, this is certainly not the norm. India is a land shrouded in mystery and exotic charm and this complex nation continues to be in constant flux. The nation is galloping at a frantic pace from its developing nation status to being a super-power thanks to the wave of globalization that has impacted the entire globe. With the setting-up shop of global brands like Coca-Cola, Pepsi, McDonalds, Pizza Hut, Dominos, Microsoft, Yahoo, Google, etc, etc India is becoming more similar to the developed Western Countries than it is imagined to be despite the geographical distance that exists.
