Our accommodation was the beautiful Amar Bagh-Junia, situated in an attractive village with friendly inhabitants. I'd love to stay there for a week! The room we were in overlooked a lake full of water-birds. I thought "I could come here to die. They could just prop me up on my bed overlooking the lake. No better way to go" |
 |
The village has a Hindu Temple, and many shrines, a mosque and a Jain Temple, and everyone lives in harmony. | |

 |
The village is very proud of being self-sufficient, being able to supply all its own needs, with its own baker of bread, spinner (above), weaver etc. |
| Some of the men from the village came down to the hotel to entertain us at dinner with local music and dancing. |  |

 |
In the mornings, the girls and young women go down to the lakeside to do their washing. |
