The Indian Nightlife

One of the great things about traveling is being able to check out the different types of nightlife that other countries have. India's nightlife is diverse and growing. Tucked away, you’ll find small bars, pubs and nightclubs. I was very eager to find out what the nightlife was like in India! The first night out was in Chennai with Cynthia, Saran, and Dr. Rao. We had some appetizers and drinks at a rooftop restaurant at The Park, a 5-star hotel and ended the night visiting a small nightclub. There were white cabanas surrounding a gorgeous pool with tiki torches and relaxing music. It felt like we were in NYC, and then to look out into the distance and know we were in India was such an incredible feeling!


In most cities in India, nightlife is early to start and early to end because of the curfews in place.  Though, large clubs that are exempt from the curfews are usually only found in 5-star international hotel complexes, and sometimes in shopping malls.
We spent our last night at nightclub inside the Taj Banjara Hotel in Hyderabad. This was such a great night; we met lots of students from America that are currently taking classes at the University of Hyderabad. The dancing was very different from the dancing in America, which I was ready for! The DJ played a mixture of rap/hip-hop and techno until 10:30 and then the Hindi trance music came on.
