    I am struck by the sharp contrasts between the beauty and architectural features of the Taj Mahal against the very obvious poverty and pollution in India. Thank you for sharing both the good and the bad. I must say, though, that Royal Caribbean has done an outstanding job planning and coordinating all the Wonders of the World excursions. Keep the videos coming!

    I’m so thankful you don’t try to give a spin to all your journeys to make it all seem magical. I love seeing the truth, the real journey and the real culture. It’s very educational. Thank you.

    An exhausting but worthy journey to see the beauty of Taj Mahal. So sad that this country is tainted by such disregard for the environment.

    I spent two weeks visiting India in March 2024. It's sad to say but India's poverty and pollution level is in a class by itself. I have seen poverty in Africa, Asia and the Americas nothing remotely comparable to India.

    • @bztravel
      @bztravel  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yeah, we get what you're saying. For us, the most shocking part was definitely the garbage situation. We've been to plenty of poor countries that take pride in keeping things clean, but in India, it’s different. It feels like many people think they’re too good or too holy to deal with trash.

    I’ve been following you guys through the 9 month long voyage and don’t fail to see your videos. Yes - due to overpopulation in the cities of India , there is a lot of problems with sanitation and garbage disposal but the Government and civic bodies are trying hard to overcome this. You must understand- it’s difficult in a large and diverse country like India . Also - areas along train tracks somehow seem to have the worst of it. I’d urge you to explore the beautiful interior countrysides ranging from the Western ghats, Gangetic plains, rainforests and deserts ;not to mention the forts of Rajasthan, temples of Tamil Nadu and the backwaters of Kerala - to name a few. And for what it’s worth - I do think that an entire airport powered by solar is pretty neat and worth a commendation 😊 all the pollution notwithstanding.
    Enjoy the rest of your journey and hope to see many more wonderful places through your videos. 🙏

      Thanks so much for sticking with us and for your insightful comment! 🌟 We absolutely understand the challenges India faces with sanitation, especially in bustling, densely populated cities. We're currently editing our Mumbai video, and our goal is to share exactly what we see and how it makes us feel. We mean no offense at all, and we apologize if it came across that way.
      The situation with the lack of sewer treatment in a city as large as Mumbai is indeed shocking, and it’s something we felt needed to be highlighted. The solar-powered airport is an initiative that took some of the limited resources from the real need of garbage collection and disposal to enrich someone connected to the government.
      We live in Bulgaria and in the 90s the garbage was a problem there too, now we have dumpsters everywhere. People need a way to dispose the trash, if none is provided it will go on the sheet and next to the railroad.

    Mumtaz was not his first wife, I believe she was his 14th wife and after her death, Shahjahan married to her younger sister. After complition of Taj Mahal, he cut hands of all workers so they can not build another.

    • @bztravel
      @bztravel  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Thank You for watching and for the comment!
      We usually check few sources and try to be as correct as possible. We focus on the travel and less on history, this we believe to be the facts:
      1. Number of Wives: Mumtaz Mahal was actually the third wife of Shah Jahan, not the 14th. She was indeed his favorite and deeply loved, which is reflected in the grandeur of the Taj Mahal, built in her memory.
      2. Marriage to Her Sister: There’s no historical evidence supporting that Shah Jahan married Mumtaz’s younger sister after her death.
      3. Workers’ Hands Cut Off: This is a popular myth, but there’s no credible evidence to support the claim that Shah Jahan ordered the hands of the Taj Mahal workers to be cut off to prevent them from building another similar monument. This tale seems to be more folklore than fact.

    Talking about a country that is disrespecting the climate / environment, while sailing in by cruiseship and flying up and down the Taj Mahal sounds a little bit hypocrite. Sorry. Iike your videos. I like your world cruise. But beware of your own environmental impact.

      Your just as guilty sitting behind your computer using energy, everything that you use today uses oil, even electric vehicles, so before accusing one person 🧍‍♀️ f watching their environmental impact, beware of your own

      Why should a country outside the US care about the environment? They do as they please and the US should not get involved. Their people have thrive and live in pollution. If you try to clean it up, they will die off faster.
