Why do foreigners love India?
I travelled India for 4 months and then lived in it for 3 months. As others have remarked the food is a good reason, but my bet, as someone who didn’t like India, is on the tolerance towards other religions and faiths.
Indians are not tolerants among themselves (cast, region, skin color) but are exceddingly good at keeping out of other’s faith and act independent of it. Also, most of them tended to stay for long in the north of the country.
我为什么喜欢印度？
我曾在印度旅行了4个月，然后又在那里生活了3个月。正如其他人所提到的，食物是一个很好的理由，但作为一个起初并不喜欢印度的人，我更看重的是他们对其他宗教和信仰的宽容。印度人彼此之间（种姓、地区、肤色）并不宽容，但非常擅长不干涉他人的信仰并独立行事。此外，他们中的大多数人倾向于在该国北部停留较长时间。

Why do so many foreigners like India and think India is good?
Because they haven't been brainwashed by propagandist media.
They are more open minded and accepting.
They have access to real information, truth and facts.
Most of them aren't communists.
They understand the actual meaning of being good and doing good. They have experienced the same in India.
They are unbiased and believe what they see with their own eyes and personal experience.
They like the Indian philosophy and notion of the word, which is a sharp contrast to communist ideologies.
They know how to empathize and feel for others.
In short, foreigners who like India and think India is good are themselves good people.
为什么这么多外国人喜欢印度并认为印度很好？
因为他们没有被宣传媒体洗脑。
他们思想更开放，更愿意接受。
他们能够接触到真实的信息、真相和事实。
他们大多数人不是共产主义者。
他们理解‘好’的真正含义以及做好事的意义。他们在印度也经历了同样的事情。
他们没有偏见，相信自己亲眼所见和个人经历。
他们喜欢印度人的哲学和世界观，这与共产主义意识形态形成了鲜明对比。
他们知道如何感同身受和将心比心。
简而言之，喜欢印度并认为印度很好的外国人，他们自己也是好人。

well, when you step on this red land, you start to wonder how old it is and how long it’s keeping it’s secrets :)
Food is incredibly tasty, people live with the idea of karma - what you give is what you get, animals are holly :) and nature ..nature is like motherland. Most of the people go there to search for themself and the important things in life.. India is huge and offers a lot of styles and micro cultures. I love India and every time i go there i feel like i got back home after a 1000 of years :) !!!
嗯，当你踏上这片红色的土地时，你开始好奇它有多古老，以及它保守着怎样的秘密 。
食物非常美味，人们生活在因果报应的理念中——付出什么就会得到什么，动物是神圣的，而自然是像祖国一样。大多数人去那里寻找自己和生命中重要的东西。印度很大，有很多风格和微文化。我爱印度，我每次去那里都感觉像是在一千年后回到了家 。

Not all the foreigners love India. I am an Indian and living abroad since many years and in between my foreigner friends who traveled India they wanted to go there just because India is different world for them They loved it or they hated it there. Some wants to go again because of it’s culture, hospitality, inexpensive and great food, different landscapes, religions and beliefs etc. Actually for them India is a big country with many different countries inside. South and North are completely different. Others those hated it there and never want to go back again they were not happy with many other things like less cleanliness, overpopulated places, hot weather etc but again I would say its all about one’s vision.
并非所有外国人都喜欢印度。我是印度人，在国外生活了很多年，我的外国朋友去印度旅游，他们想去那里，因为印度对他们来说是一个不同的世界，最终在他们看来，关于印度，只有一件事，他们要么喜欢它，要么讨厌它。有些人想再去一次，因为那里的文化、热情好客、便宜而美味的食物、不同的风景、宗教和信仰等等。实际上，对他们来说，印度就是一个拥有许多不同“国家”在内的大国。印度南方和北方完全不同。还有一些人在那里讨厌它，再也不想回去，他们对许多其他事情不满意，如清洁度不够、人口过多、天气炎热等，但我还是要说，这都是关于个人视角的问题。

India is home to many of our scientific discoveries and is as the Europeans once referred to “the cradle of civilisation”. India is also perhaps the most culturally diverse place on the planet. It is the home of many religions and the root of many languages.
Whatever one says of India and supports with a wide body of evidence can just as easily be dislodged with an equal if not greater body of evidence to support.
What’s baffling and intriguing about India is that it is difficult to stay in the place, travel through it with all its discomforts and inconveniences and not come out the better for it. It is also difficult to not find something of ones own culture, religions, philosophical beliefs floating somewhere in India’s past or rooted in its vast and multi dimensional state.
India will never be China or Europe or the USA although a growing middle class sometimes shows signs of wanting to be like all of these countries and economies. This is because deeply rooted in the Indian psyche and spirit is that longing for and desire to maintain that freedom they have always enjoyed which credit cards, tall skyscrapers, fast imported cars and big banquets cannot be substituted for. All these other nations have traded the more valuable inheritances such as their freedoms and their philosophies and spirituality and human qualities for the superficial goods of their economic endevours.
印度是许多我们科学发现的发源地，正如欧洲人曾经提到的那样，是‘文明的摇篮’。印度也可能是地球上文化最多样化的地方。它是许多宗教的发源地，也是许多语言的发源地。
无论有人说印度什么，并用大量证据支持，都可以同样容易地被等同甚至更多的证据所推翻。
令人困惑和着迷的是，尽管印度充满了不适和不便，但人们很难在这个地方生活或旅行后而不因此而变得更好。同样，也很难不在印度的历史中或在其庞大和多维的国家中找到与自己文化、宗教、哲学信仰相呼应的东西。
印度永远不会成为中国、欧洲或美国，尽管不断壮大的中产阶级有时会表现出想要成为所有这些国家和经济体的迹象。这是因为在印度人的心理和精神深处，渴望和期望保持他们一直享有的自由，这是信用卡、摩天大楼、快速进口汽车和大型宴会无法取代的。所有这些其他国家都把更宝贵的遗产——比如他们的自由、哲学、精神和人性品质——交换成了他们经济追求的表面商品。

India once was the richest country on this planet (and perhaps still is if people paid their taxes and banked their money instead of finding new ways to salt their wealth through black money schemes).
It was the subject of Winston Churchill’s man made famines that killed over 20 millions (they never asked to b compensated for what was in fact a GENOCIDE). They were invaded, enslaved and butchered by the Moghuls, by their own despots.
They were ravaged by famines, floods, tempests, earthquakes, invaders and colonials,seen wars not of their making and still have the capacity to renew themselves, be generous to others in need (one of the larger donour nations) share their technology, produce some of the finest doctors, engineers, scientists educators, academics, intellectuals and industrialists the world has ever seen.
When you leave India you always leave the place tired but never unhappy. Not even after the Sikh taxi wallah in Delhi rips you off for $200 leaving you locked in a public toilet saying he is going to get the balance of your money and to lock you up is for your own safety.
In the end, we will all in some ways adopt the Indian way of life (traditional) in order to rescue ourselves from the destruction consumerism (now trying to conquer India) has reeked the world over.
印度曾经是这个星球上最富有的国家（如果人们纳税并把钱存入银行，而不是通过黑钱计划寻找新的方式来储存财富，也许现在仍然是这个星球上最富有的国家）。
它可能受温斯顿·丘吉尔人为制造的饥荒的影响，这场饥荒导致了超过2000万人的死亡（他们从未要求对事实上的种族灭绝进行赔偿）。他们被莫卧儿人，被他们自己的暴君入侵，奴役和屠杀。
他们遭受了饥荒、洪水、暴风雨、地震、侵略者和殖民者带来的严重破坏，经历过不是他们造成的战争，但仍然有能力自我更新，慷慨地帮助有需要的人(最大的捐助国之一)，分享他们的技术，培养出一些世界上最优秀的医生、工程师、科学家、教育家、学者、知识分子和实业家。
当你离开印度时，你总是很累，但从不会不开心。甚至在德里的锡克教出租车司机把你锁在公共厕所里，说他为了你自己的安全会拿走你的钱，把你锁起来。
最终，我们都将在某种程度上采用印度的生活方式(传统)，以拯救自己免受消费主义(现在试图征服印度)的破坏，消费主义已经在世界各地散发着恶臭。

It depends , people have different opinions and views about India and everything else in life but since you are asking I would say , that maybe because of some TV shows or documentaries most of people who have never visited India before - have kind of a bad impression of the country and might consider it unhygienic and poor !
As I have mentioned in my previous answers , I was in love with India since childhood and loved reading about it’s culture , history , traditions .People back in my country never really understood or took it serious , they used to tell me with an attitude : ‘’ You’ll grow up and realize it’s stupid ’’ or ‘’Once you visit India , you’ll see how poor it is and rush back home ’’ ! When I first time visited India , while landing I saw Delhi lights and - I CRIED ! I do not know what it was , but my heart has never felt so much excitement and happiness at the same time , never before ! I have no idea how but it was just what i had pictured in my head ! Of course I felt bad for people who live in the streets , I saw some places which freaked me out and I could not stand the strong , terrible smell but I once more fell in love with India ! We should always concentrate on positive points and India is so much of that !
这要看情况，人们对印度和生活中的其他事情有不同的看法和观点，但既然你问了，我会说，可能是因为一些电视节目或纪录片，大多数从未去过印度的人对这个国家有不好的印象，可能会认为它不卫生，很穷!
正如我在之前的回答中提到的，我从小就爱上了印度，喜欢阅读有关它的文化、历史、传统的书籍。在我自己的国家，人们从来没有真正理解或认真对待过印度，他们过去常常以这种态度告诉我：‘你会长大，意识到这很愚蠢’或者‘一旦你去了印度，你就会看到它有多穷，然后匆忙回家’！当我第一次访问印度时，着陆时我看到了德里的灯光，我哭了!我不知道那是什么，但我的心从来没有同时感到这么多的兴奋和幸福，从来没有！我不知道怎么形容，但这正是我在脑海中描绘的！当然，我为那些生活在街头的人感到难过，我看到了一些让我感到震惊的地方，我无法忍受那强烈、难闻的气味，但我再次爱上了印度！我们应该始终专注于积极的一面，印度就是如此！

When I go back to my country , some silly people still ask if I have a washroom or not ,got a bed or i sleep on the floor - yes it’s so annoying and disrespectful but I do not wanna argue with someone , who has no idea about what’s actually going on here and is still so confident just because she/he has seen a scene over TV how poor India is !
I try to use my social media handles to show India from my point of view - which is incredible ! Textiles , architecture , festivals , food - I love all about the country !
I could go and live anywhere I wanted to but India has a power i guess which attracts you and there is no between - either you love it passionately or not at all!
当我回到我的国家时，一些愚蠢的人仍然问我（印度）是否有洗手间，是否有床还是睡在地板上——是的，这非常烦人和不尊重，但我不想和一个对这里正在发生的事情一无所知却仍然如此自信的人争论，只因为她/他曾在电视上看到印度有多穷的一幕！
我尝试使用我的社交媒体账号来展示我从自己的角度看到的印度——不可思议的印度！纺织品、建筑、节日、食物——我喜爱这个国家的一切！
我可以去任何我想去的地方生活，但我猜印度有一种吸引你的力量，没有中间地带——你要么强烈地爱它，要么根本不爱它!

As I also work with students , who want to go abroad for studies , I really like to talk to them and prepare as people from India travelling abroad represent their country too ! You should try to look polished and groomed , clean your place - no matter it’s hostel or flat , not to disturb neighbors - be friendly - maybe you offer them to try Indian dishes (less spicy) ! Talk about how rich India’s culture is and what achievements it has - but do not be pushy , keep it short !
I try my best to spread good message , India is not poor - if we look at the population of some countries it’s 3 million - they still have beggars , people who are uneducated , sleep in the streets , starving and here Delhi (just one city) population is 18 million - how is the world expecting it to be perfectly normal and super clean over here ?! If country with small population can not be taken care of and well maintained how are we expecting one of the most populated country to fulfill those requirements ?!
由于我也与想要出国学习的学生一起工作，我非常喜欢与他们交谈并帮助他们准备，因为前往国外的印度人也代表着他们的国家！你应该尽量看起来整洁、干净，打扫你的地方——不管是旅馆还是公寓，不要打扰邻居——友好相处——也许你可以请他们尝尝印度菜（少辣）！谈谈印度文化有多丰富，取得了什么成就——但不要急于求成，保持简短!
我尽我所能传播正面的信息，印度并不穷——如果我们看看一些只有300万人口的国家——他们仍然有乞丐，有人未受教育，有人睡在街头，有人挨饿，而德里（只是一个城市）的人口是1800万——世界怎能期望这里完全正常和超级干净？如果人口小的国家都无法得到妥善照顾和维护，我们怎能期望人口最多的国家满足这些要求呢？！

What do the foreigners think about India as a whole?
I’ve visited India twice, once on business (to give talks on influence techniques), once as a tourist. A few impressions:
Stimulus overload. India is an exhausting place to experience, but in the best sense. Sounds, sights, tastes, smells and sensations of all kinds come at you from all sides, relentlessly. This barrage is how India gets under your skin and makes itself unforgettable. At the end of my first visit I became obsessed with returning.
Much of what you see in India seems to be poorly finished, abandoned, badly maintained (this is especially shocking and sad in museums) or falling apart. Dirty too. You need to be careful as a pedestrian not to twist your ankle on uneven sidewalks or be injured by bits of metal or wood sticking out of walls.
外国人怎么看待印度这个整体?
我去过印度两次，一次是出差(就影响力技巧发表演讲)，一次是旅游，有如下印象：
刺激过载。印度是一个令人筋疲力尽的体验之地，但这是最好的意义上的筋疲力尽，声音、视觉、味觉、嗅觉和各种感觉从四面八方无情地向你袭来。印度就是这样让你动心，让你难以忘怀的。在我第一次访问结束时，我一心想回到印度去。
你在印度看到的许多东西似乎都是拙劣的，被遗弃的，维护不善的(这在博物馆里尤其令人震惊和悲伤)或分崩离析，也很脏。作为行人，你需要小心，不要在凹凸不平的人行道上扭伤脚踝，也不要被墙上伸出来的金属或木头碎片弄伤。

Smiles. especially from curious children. People in India are generally warm and welcoming.
Trash. Locals in Bangalore explained to me that countless people make a living from picking up trash and recycling what they can. They even insisted that changing littering habits in India would cause more poverty.
Queues. Expect to be pushed, shoved and overtaken. This is the Indian way.
English. Not everyone speaks it. And why should they?
Admission fees. There’s often one price for you, the tourist, and one for locals. Your price can be easily and officially be ten times higher (but still cheap by European or North-American standards).
Opportunity. People try to make money—tips usually—out of anything in India. As you drive up to the entrance barrier of a parking lot or a toll booth, for instance, someone might step up and take your ticket out of the machine or from the attendant in order to hand it to you, hoping for a coin. I couldn’t decide if this was creativity, desperation or both.
微笑，尤其是来自好奇的孩子。印度人通常都很热情好客。
垃圾，班加罗尔的当地人向我解释说，无数人靠捡垃圾和回收垃圾为生。他们甚至坚持认为，改变印度人乱扔垃圾的习惯会导致更多的贫困。
排队，做好被推、被推、被超越的准备，这是印度人的方式。
英语，并不是每个人都说英语，他们为什么要说呢？
入场费，通常游客是一个票价，当地人是另一个票价。你作为游客的价格据传轻易达到当地人票价的十倍（但按照欧洲或北美的标准来看仍然很便宜）
机会，在印度，人们通常试图从任何方面去赚钱——通常是小费。例如，当你开车到达停车场或收费站的入口障碍时，有人可能会上前从机器或从工作人员那里取出你的票，并递给你，希望得到一枚硬币。我不知道这是创造力，还是绝望，还是两者兼而有之。

As you drive up to the entrance barrier of a parking lot or a toll booth, for instance, someone might step up and take your ticket out of the machine or from the attendant in order to hand it to you, hoping for a coin. I couldn’t decide if this was creativity, desperation or both.
微笑，尤其是来自好奇的孩子。印度人通常都很热情好客。
垃圾，班加罗尔的当地人向我解释说，无数人靠捡垃圾和回收垃圾为生。他们甚至坚持认为，改变印度人乱扔垃圾的习惯会导致更多的贫困。
排队，做好被推、被推、被超越的准备，这是印度人的方式。
英语，并不是每个人都说英语，他们为什么要说呢？
入场费，通常游客是一个票价，当地人是另一个票价。你作为游客的价格据传轻易达到当地人票价的十倍（但按照欧洲或北美的标准来看仍然很便宜）
机会，在印度，人们通常试图从任何方面去赚钱——通常是小费。例如，当你开车到达停车场或收费站的入口障碍时，有人可能会上前从机器或从工作人员那里取出你的票，并递给你，希望得到一枚硬币。我不知道这是创造力，还是绝望，还是两者兼而有之。
Religion. It’s a delight to see so many faiths cohabiting peacefully. However, according to locals I spoke to, the cohabitation often stops short of condoning mixed-faith marriages.
Slow service in shops. One person welcomes you at the door. Another serves you. Another wraps your goods. Another takes your payment. In some shops, another person checks your bag as you leave. I sometimes wonder if Starbuck’s didn’t get inspired by Indian service. On the other hand, this system ensures that more people get a salary and I like that. Indeed India forces you to think again about how you define solidarity, despair, possibility, poverty, creativity, efficiency and effectiveness.
Taj Mahal. It’s so beautiful that I had tears in my eyes when I first saw it for real. Countless Indian tourists I saw there clearly thought the same. My emotion switched to anger, however, at the poverty I saw in the nearby town of Agra.
Don’t get me wrong. The above are simply what might surprise you as a visitor to India. I love this country and can’t wait to return.
Go for it, India.
宗教，很高兴看到这么多信仰和平共处。然而，根据我和当地人的交谈，这种共处往往不包括认可异教通婚。
商店服务缓慢，有一个人在门口欢迎你，另一个为你服务，另一个包裹你的货物，另一个拿走你的钱。在一些商店，当你离开时，另一个人会检查你的包。我有时会想，星巴克是不是受到了印度服务的启发。另一方面，这个制度确保了更多的人得到工资，我喜欢这一点。事实上，印度迫使你重新思考如何定义团结、绝望、可能性、贫穷、创造力、效率和效力。
泰姬陵，它是如此的美丽，以至于当我第一次真正看到它时，我热泪盈眶。我在那里看到的无数印度游客显然也是这么想的。然而，看到附近阿格拉镇的贫困，我的情绪变成了愤怒。
不要误会我，上述只是作为游客到访印度时可能会让你感到惊讶的事情，我爱这个国家，迫不及待地想回来。
加油，印度。
