Usually you think that if you get to a tourist attraction really early you will beat the crowds....not so at this temple!
We arrived at the temple a little before 7am, which is when the temple opens.
There were already crowds of people there...luckily our local guide knew someone at the head off the ticket queue, and managed to get us all tickets without too much a delay.
But once inside it was still very busy - and the sun had only just risen!
