    If you only have a few hours, a quick 30 minute boat hop to Umananda is doable, but you’ll barely see the temple before the crowds arrive. A better use of time is to walk the main paths, stop at Peacock House for photos, and spot the riverine villages. Start early before noon the river is calmer and you’ll catch more birds. If you’re pressed, skip the temple and focus on the wildlife trails.
