No matter what their height was, each and every structure in the temple was impressive and mysterious at the same time. We walked around, spell-bound, exploring each and every shrine. Just wishing we had a phone to capture this beauty and share it with our loved ones.
We, however, were not able to enjoy the Lingaraj temple in peace much because of the priests coming up every five minutes and asking if we would like to make an offering. From their perspective, I understand that they probably deter tourists in their place of worship. However, we were looking to appreciate the architectural beauty in peace. And that is why, we hurried out.
We almost ran back to the car. I loved Lingaraj temple, but it was marred by the fact that our smartphones were left in a car with a new person in a new city. The moment I saw them safe, I must admit my belief in God increased a little bit. 😀
