A compliment to the trip in Somnath incorporated the place where Krishna was fatally wounded. Dwarka then was the chance to be near His kingdom. Obviously one does not see the ancient city but the temple there is magnificent. The picture and the high walls conspire to do injustice to the mandir, however from within the walls, all five elaborately carved levels are some of the most superb architecture thus far on the trip.
After Palitana, the next place where I saw tourists in the true sense was at Dwarka. Capitalising on this, a tour called Dwarka Darshan is run, and in every sense of the word, is a Darshan. If there ever was a record for the most number of mandirs in four hours, this was it.
