Steps of history
Ancient temples have always been one of the most amazing threads in the tapestry of Indian culture. The Modhera Sun Temple was made in the early 11th century. The sun temple has a very interesting step well built around the same time to address the scarcity of water, then. The temple is designed in such a way that during every equinox, the first ray of the rising sun enters the sanctum, filling the shrine with a golden glow.
In 2014, Modhera Sun Temple entered the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
In the picture here are the steps to the reservoir. The women in this part of India are known to wear colourful drapes. She made an interesting subject against the stark neutral of the stones. Hardly any tourists in these times made this picture possible.
