4. Folklore
India is an ancient civilization and a religious country with many taboos. It is very important that Indians think that their left hand is not clean. Never shake hands or say hello with your left hand in India, or you will think it is a great insult to him for convenience. Besides, don't touch the Indian's head. That means disrespect.
The main religions in India are Hinduism, Islam, Christianity and Sikhism, among which Hinduism accounts for more than half. India is also the birthplace of Buddhism. There are special vegetarians in Hinduism. Try to avoid eating meat in front of vegetarians. Indian temples and various gods can be seen almost everywhere. It doesn't matter if you don't know the corresponding customs. Don't profane it at will, maintain due respect, and comply with local requirements, such as taking off your shoes and entering a Muslim mosque.
When Indians agree, shaking their heads is not a gesture of shaking our heads, but a gesture like a tumbler, which cannot be misunderstood.
When visiting a friend's house in India, if the other person's wife or concubine is a housewife, when saying goodbye or greeting, you can put your hands together or put them on your chest instead of shaking hands. (except for women who are said to work).

6. Mobile phones and calling cards
Airtel, an Indian mobile phone operator, has the best network coverage and moderate local charges. The international SMS is Rs. 6. The call back to China is Rs. Nine a minute. Aircel is the most cost-effective international package company, but the signal is slightly poor. Call back to China for 5-6 rupees a minute. The signal coverage of each city is also slightly different. Mobile phone cards can be processed and recharged in the operator's business hall or roadside stalls marked ISD/STD. The mobile phone charges of Indian operators are also varied. Pay attention to whether the payment amount includes consumption tax and validity period. Therefore, it is recommended to set a full talk time package when handling, so as to avoid the situation that the telephone bill is less than the actual payment amount. For example, if you recharge 1 rupees, but in India, if you don't explain in advance, the available phone bill may be less than 1 rupees, but 5 rupees, and the other 5 will be charged as some function fees. There is a public telephone booth at the exit of the airport. In addition, street stalls marked ISD/ STD also provide public telephone service. Call records and charges will be printed, and the charges are relatively transparent.
7. Network
Most hotels in major tourist cities in India provide free WIFI, and it is easy to find Internet cafes in tourist gathering areas. This year, with the increase of China tourists to india tourism, many Internet cafes in Agra, varanasi and other cities have installed Chinese input methods, but many Internet cafes still do not support Chinese input, so you should consult the staff before using them.

it is easy to find money exchange points in all tourist cities. Usually there are few exchange points to exchange RMB. Even if RMB can be used, the exchange rate is relatively poor, and it is recommended to use US dollars. There are many booths marked with currency exchange in airports, banks and urban areas. Many currency exchange points do not accept RMB exchange or offer poor exchange rates. It is recommended to exchange in US dollars. It is not recommended to exchange money at the airport and the bank, because the exchange rate will lose a lot. You can change it at a stall downtown. According to the amount exchanged, you can bargain, and try to be based on the official exchange rate at that time.
