Rat Temple

City: Outside Bikaner, India
Weather: 96°, sunny
Site: Karni Mata
Activity: Stepping on rat poop

 

I'm not squimish AT ALL but this temple is up there on grossest things I've ever done. It's an active Hindu temple with thousands of pilgrims coming to worship. You are required to enter bare foot and there is no surface not covered in rat feces or decaying rats or half eaten rat food. The smell… And the rats are not healthy in the slightest. I did see an albino rat which is supposed to be excellent luck so it was a trip well spent and I think I left disease-free.
