Hidden Himalayan villages, royal mango stories and the wellness science behind India’s fermented foods - CNBC TV18

Good morning! ☕️ Grab your coffee and settle in. In this Sunday’s 11:11, we travel from quiet Himalayan villages and serene lakeside towns to Arctic destinations where the sun barely sets. We’re heading beyond Shimla and Manali into lesser-known mountain villages tucked across Uttarakhand, Ladakh and Arunachal Pradesh, exploring India’s scenic lake towns, and revisiting the remarkable engineering behind ancient stepwells like Chand Baori and Rani ki Vav. If you’ve ever wanted to witness the surreal phenomenon of the midnight sun, we’ve also rounded up destinations where daylight stretches almost endlessly through summer. Closer home, Rajasthan’s Sariska Tiger Reserve is preparing a more immersive digital wildlife experience with multi-language audio guides and interactive exhibits, while Goa is transforming beach shacks into collaborative workspaces as it pushes to position itself as India’s next major workation hub. And since it’s mango season, we’re revisiting Murshidabad’s extraordinary royal mango legacy — from the prized Kohitur to forgotten Nawab-era varieties tied to dowries, court disputes and disappearing orchards. We’re also diving into YouTube’s new AI-powered recommendation controls, the meticulous craft behind Japanese whisky blending with Suntory Chief Blender Shinji Fukuyo, and why fermented foods sitting in Indian kitchens may be doing more for gut health than expensive probiotic supplements ever could. Finally, we break down the WHO’s Ebola emergency alert, what exactly the virus is, and why countries around the world are stepping up precautions. Let’s get into it!
