We started at Nagda, the mother-in-law/daughter-in-law
temples on Lake Bagela which date to the 6th century. These temples
are located in a serene setting on a lake and have many intricate carvings.
|
  We
discovered the idol Alex there. Later on, we went to a second
Jain temple called Ekllingji.
|
  Then
we went to the Royal Garden
Sahelion-Ki-Bari.
The fountains there work naturally by the pressure from the lake.
|
|
|
  We visited the City
Palace where we saw miniature paintings that tell a story.
|
  We saw
monkeys again climbing on the palace wall. A mosaic peacock is one
of the main attractions.
|
  There
was no air conditioning back when this palace was built. A large
fan was powered by a man pulling a rope. The other fan from the
British is powered by kerosene.
|
 The
palace had a nice view of the sunset.
|
| In the evening, we stayed around the hotel and I had a facial and hair wash at Habibs Beauty Salon. The facial lasted well over an hour and included many creams and cost only 550 rupees, that's about $12. Hugh was still sick and stayed in bed. The next morning we went around the city for some shopping and later took another plane flight and arrived back in Delhi in the late afternoon. Hugh is now sitting up but he doesn't look so good. |
