Day 3 Part 4 or 5 getting Temples out

Ok, I managed to get into a few temples, and take some pictures, these complex's are huge... taking over 1km or so, one of the complex's every 30 years, they bring out of idol, and normally have 10million people,  the carvings, are in granite, and were pretty amazing, the detail was crazy, even down to the level where if you tap it, (I.e. the sword, it would sound like metal, another area, you could tap the stone, to hear gold, silver etc),  the Mango tree complex was really big.. I actually wasn't allowed to get into one part, (it is strange, it seems to be from temple to temple of they will let you in or not...) and there are no European faces here!! One of the temple priest (not sure if that was the correct term), was berry chatty explaining everything about it...and was very informative...

Got to see my first elephants in one of the big temples... (did look a little sad...)
