That’s nice, must have been incredibly crowded at the temple. Did you also stay up the entire night and fast? Where abouts did you go to a temple?
Peter,
Yeah, I did not go up there for the night but I wake up early in the morning and reached the Temple at 6am. (usually I sleep at 6am and wake up at 12noon
) The Temple is not much far away from my place. I will update this post tonight and put some more pictures of it.
I did fast whole day and even the day before, as it was Ekadashi, which is also a day for fast. So, I had to fast for two days consecutively.
wow, that’s nice Ashvin — hope to visit Gujurat some day. I visited to the Arunachaleswar Shiva temple in Tiruvannamalai a few years back, that was really impressive.
Oh dats kool, I have been on too on this day. And in fact I was at the temple whose snap you have posted above at 4am on Maha Shivratri day. Kuddos~
Peter,
Sure, You are most welcome to Gujarat some day … let me know before couple of days you arrive to Gujarat. I will be ready to welcome such a friend as well as guru of flash to my state!
Are you frequent visitor of India or just came here for once to enjoy vacation?
Eray,
Thats nice that you also visited the same temple, but That temple opens at 5.45am as far as I know.
