By far the most amazing temple complex I have seen, next only to the one in Siem Reap in Cambodia. I stayed at sumeru hotel in Palitana for a night. And had to leave early morning at 6 AM to go to the top. There are 3750 steps to climb up and numerous temples enroute. I took a Doli , paying Rs.3000/ for a four member carriage up. I took this for two reasons- to negotiate steep climbing (I am 65 years old with bad knees) and to provie them their first income during COVID times. It took two and half hour to go up as I did a lot of climbing and waling on my own also with a stick, to provide the bearers some relief. The 800 odd temples, 16000 statues atop the hill and some 36000 statues strewn across the hillside( I of course couldnt see all) are out of the world. I went on the roof top and got the full overview of all the temples and got some amazing shots too. should not miss if travelling to Gujarat, India.
