Have lunch at Sheroe’s Café, a restaurant run by female acid attack survivors, and listen as they share their stories and discuss many of the issues around acid attacks in India.
Any trip to India must include a visit to the Taj Mahal, regarded by many as the best example of Mughal architecture and a symbol of India's rich history.
