In this issue

For its sixth anniversary issue, National Geographic Traveller India returns to a fundamental idea: the best ways to travel. Our central showcase this time is the feature “Smart Hacks Around The World”, in which writers and photographers tell readers how to get the most of a destination. There are photo hacks for Ladakh, road trip lessons for Europe, and tips to enjoy London’s nightlife. Some famous names offer an insider’s guide to their hometowns. Shashi Tharoor waxes eloquent about Trivandrum, Raghu Dixit rewinds to his childhood in Mysore and writer Janice Pariat pens her ode to Shillong. And for an outsider’s perspective, don’t miss Akhil Sharma’s contemplative account of his fortnight in Japan.
