Plastered on every traveler’s social media account, this temple is no secret. But the lively atmosphere of the city’s most significant and oldest temple is built on the crowds who filter in – especially during the annual Sanja Festival. Celebrating the founders of this temple, Sanja sees portable shrines paraded about the streets, food stalls lining the entrance to the temple, and revelers dancing to drums.
