Looking west from an abandoned hilltop palace, just outside of Udaipur.
Women pilgrims in Orchha. This time of year, after Divali, many rural women in this area make a pilgrimage to a large local temple. They bathe in the river, then carry water to the temple as an offering to Krishna. The women still love to wear their beautiful saris, but most men prefer the western style clothes.
Women pilgrims dancing in the temple courtyard in Orchha. The temple was closed at the moment, and when I asked the guide why it was closed, he said "because it's not open". I should have known.
