Alexander Armstrong in India

Alexander Armstrong dives headfirst into the glorious chaos of Mumbai, India's fastest, loudest, and most crowded city. He takes in some of old Bombay's traditional colonial splendor, before stopping for a favorite street snack: the Vada Pav. He then travels north to Delhi, India's seat of power. This is an India of wild contrasts and rich complexity, and Alexander is in the thick of it.

Alexander Armstrong travels to Rajasthan's capital, the pink city of Jaipur. He explores the city's rich gemstone heritage, meets a street photographer with a fabulous antique camera and discovers how one entrepreneur is shaking up traditional leathermaking by producing sex-positive goods. He then heads to the state of Karnataka and has a tiger country adventure at Bandipur National Park.

Alexander Armstrong starts the final leg of his Indian adventure in Mumbai, riding the city's gleaming new metro before venturing into a forest with the world's highest concentration of leopards. From there, he travels to Bangalore, India's tech capital, where the future and tradition sit side by side. Beyond the city's bright promise, he tackles one of India's darkest taboos: caste.
