After Kahjuraho we wanted to reach Rajastan by plane first. But our previous domestic flight was so scary that we didn't want to risk our life once again and found a taxi driver who brought us to Jaipur through small towns like Orchha. Orchha was immediately our next destination. It's a lovely place, not very popular but a bit famous for it's abandon and not maintained palace. By the entrance stood a not quite representative guide. He was chewing paan while offering us a tour through palace. We decided not to use his services. On our way back we briefly regretted it. The exit was hard to find. The whole building is a labyrinth overlooking the large vultures on the roof. And we were there all alone.
The palace is beautiful,
but it's dilapidated condition is a shame. All walls are stained with
paan spit. But on the other side it surely a special experience to
view a sight without crowds and rules. Here you can access every
single corner.
Orchha is a relaxed
village, worth visiting. And it's a place where I have had the best
cheese nan so far.
