Sorry guys, can’t help, we are in a hurry!

Yes, the show has started. Imagine all these ancient stupas witnessing the same event everyday for a thousand years.

Oh, no! There’s a rival pagoda there, with its own horde of sun worshippers! I think that’s Tayok Temple, another popular site

Getting dark and time to leave … and in single file, we gingerly pick our way down the steep staircase to the ground, some 50m below.
