    There are [5] photos from India

    Within the confines of the Temple acreage is this small structure, below which are stairs down to a sacred pool. Above it are more stairs leading up to a mysterious door carved into the rock face and forgotten in time. Views[521] Beneath the Temple baths, this cow's head spouts spring water to the pool below. The unusual becoming beautiful. Views[357] Rhesus Monkeys overrun the property of the Temple colloquially named for them. This mother and baby were feigning disinterest in the visitors, until food was offered. Views[344] By the stonework, this gate on the Temple grounds could be anywhere in the world, but the Hindi script transforms it into an elegant and and uniquely Indian structure. Views[347] The path to the Monkey Temple (Galwar Bagh) is cobbled and eroding; women, and a sacred cow, rest on the steps as small children race ahead. Views[330]
