To understand the cultural enrichment of India we have to study the Ajanta-Velora Caves,Lofty Of Sahyadri,Highness of Himalaya,Beauty Of Kashmir etc.We have to study the common people living there.Because people in small cities are more adherent to their religious belief, their customs,their festivals. People major cities are more inclined towards modernization. They are profit-seeking,development oriented.

So to get the understanding of most important characteristics of society, one have to study major cities and in together to that the small cities and rural area.
