Kipling's India with John Zubrzycki: Jungles, Cities & Colonial History | World Expeditions

What would it feel like to walk through the very landscapes that shaped one of literature's most enduring voices? This conversation with author and historian John Zubrzycki traces the real places behind Rudyard Kipling's India - from the colonial grandeur of Mumbai and the architectural legacy left by Kipling's own father, to the forested heart of Kanha National Park where The Jungle Book came to life. The journey moves through Delhi's monumental history and crowded bazaars, into the modernist grid of Chandigarh, up to the cool hill station of Shimla, and finally to Kolkata — a city where empire-era heritage and raw cultural energy still collide. Whether you're a lover of literature, a history enthusiast, or simply drawn to India's extraordinary depth, this is a rare chance to hear from one of Australia's foremost experts on the subcontinent. Discover how history, storytelling and travel intertwine on a small group journey through an India few visitors ever truly see. Browse all India adventures: https://worldexpeditions.com/India
