Geography of india
Geography
Located in the northern hemisphere, India shares its borders with Pakistan, Afghanistan, China, Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar and Bangladesh. It is one of the largest countries in the world with a total land area of 3.3 million square kilometers. This Indian sub-continent is unique from the rest of Asia. We find towering Himalayas in the north which slope out into the great Indo-Gangetic plains. The Vindhya ranges separate the Deccan Peninsula from the northern plains in Central India. Bay of Bengal is on the east coast of the country, while Arabian Sea is on the west coast. The southern-most tip of the country is projected into the Indian Ocean.
India holds not only mountains, plains and the seas, but also about every geographical feature as well.Thar desert lies in Rajasthan in the west of the country, while a little south of it are the unique marshlands of Kutch. On the other hand, we find world's largest delta and a unique mangrove forest on the east. Andaman and Nicobar Islands in the Bay of Bengal and the Lakshadweep Islands in the Indian Ocean include the islands of India. Thus, to sum up, India has a wide variety of flora, fauna and a climate that ranges from tropical to arctic.
Climate
India's climate varies from region to region. It is cold in the winter months in the north between November and March. We find tropical climate throughout the year in the coastal areas, while the plains and most central and southern regions of the country enjoy hot in the summer months of April and June.
