MAYFAIR EXPERIENCE
In the temple city

The paths run the full circuit of the water and take about twenty minutes at a walk. Best early, before the city gets going on the other side of the wall.

Turquoise, maintained through the day, and open to adults and children alike. Gardens on every side of it and shade when you want it.

A full-size billiard table in the marble hall, with table tennis, carrom, chess and the board games beside it. Indoors, and out of the heat.

Hair, facials, manicures and waxing, in a room set up for privacy rather than speed.

The spa for the treatments and the gym for the routine. Cardio, stationary cycles and free weights, open through the day.
Day trips and short drives from Bhubaneswar, with the travel time to each.

Rock-cut cells carved for Jain monks in the first century BCE, and the hill where Ashoka renounced war.
