India, a vast country located in South Asia, is a land of incredible geographical diversity. Its northernmost reaches are dominated by the towering Himalayan mountain range, home to some of the world's highest peaks. Below this icy expanse lies the fertile Indo-Gangetic Plain, a sprawling region crisscrossed by major rivers like the Ganges and the Indus. The central part of the country features the Deccan Plateau, a large, elevated landmass characterized by rolling hills, tablelands, and deep valleys. India's coastline, stretching over 7,500 kilometers, is bordered by the Arabian Sea to the west, the Bay of Bengal to the east, and the Indian Ocean to the south. This varied topography and expansive coastline contribute to India's diverse climate, ranging from tropical in the south to alpine in the north.
