India, the second most populated country in the world is a world apart, a country of contrasts, from the most extreme poverty and misery to luxury, from snowy peaks to vast plains, from the most deserted areas to the overwhelming jungle. India will not leave you indifferent, the journey is hard but worth it.
Today we get up without hurry, we are going to spend the day shopping around Main Bazaar, it looks a little bit like Kao Shan in Bangkok, with that backpacker air, thousands of shops and restaurants, street stalls, street vendors...
We arrived in Delhi around 9 a.m. Again the station impacts us, it is enormous, thousands of people from one side to the other, the smell and the heat, a lot of heat.
Main Bazar
Relaxation day in Khajuraho today. Yoga class in the garden, at first I don't come down, I still have a headache but finally I get up. After the class I feel great, so I have a hearty breakfast.
Khajuraho lake
We got up early, at 6.30 a.m. we were at a tata in the direction of Bandhavgarh. We stop for breakfast at a rather shabby roadhouse where we manage to order some tomato omelettes. At the end we are served some onion omelettes accompanied by ketchup.
We arrived at 6 a.m. at Khajuraho train station. We were approached by the hotel commissioners, so we had to be patient.
Khajuraho Temples
We get up early to watch the sunrise with the Taj Mahal in the background, for this we go to the restaurant of the Hotel Sani, which has a terrace with a view where we had dinner the night before.
It's 1 am and our taxi arrives to go to the International Airport of Trivandrum. We arrive and it's closed, so wherever you go do as you please, we lie down on the pavement to take a nap and wait for them to open. We make a 20-minute stopover in Bangalore.
We arrive in Delhi, we are very tired, it is very hot and the walk from the metro to the train station takes forever.
