On the banks of the Betwa

---

We arrived to the picturesque town of Orccha to see a completely different side to India that I have experienced so far. Situated on the banks of the Betwa River, Orchha is still as it was centuries ago. There is a high abundance of palaces and temples in the "Bundlekhand" region as it used to be the centre for the Bundelas (Rajput) Clan.

We spent our time here visiting the Palace and the many temples. We also viewed a puja ceremony at the Ram Raja Temple - in which we were again the main attraction. It's funny to think that despite being in a place of worship (and in the middle of a service), people were running around wanting to chat, take photos or just stare at us!

During our Orchha stay we again tested our culinary skills in a cooking class and we spent the last day shopping and having some pampering time...why can't hour long massages at home also only cost $10....?
